Grain much worse on DVD than in FC timeline

Hi everybody. I'm working with some clips that are too dark. I brightened them in Final Cut using three-way color corrector, exported the timeline as usual and burned the film onto DVD. The grain is about twice as bad on the DVD as it is in Final Cut. I believe I'm using the best possible conversions for DVD in compressor -- my other footage looks great. Is increased gain just something I have to live with when going to DVD? Or is there a way of combating it?

You need to monitor your sequence in fcp on a video monitor not a computer monitor particularly when you're doing color correction. It's possible some of your grain is a result of the compression so playing with the settings in compressor may help.

  • Official Apple reseller says "iPhone 5s's camera is much worse than the other"

    Hi Apple support and fans,
    I am writing to ask you and maybe get Apple's attention to what happened to me. I bought an iPhone 5s 8 days ago. I bought it from official Apple reseller in Warsaw, the capital city of Poland. And then my adventures began.
    First, the plug is British, not Polish, because as the reseller said "we have some iPhone not from official distribution, but it will work". Because I needed to buy an iPhone5s fast, I accepted that. However, the question is still there - is it legal to sell British iPhones "from unofficial distribution channel" in Poland?
    Second, and more important, my iPhone 5s makes horrible blurred pictures. I mean they are really blurred... I read all the posts on this forum and I tried everything. Finally I decided to visit the reseller and here is what their representative said: "These pictures are totally fine. They are blurred, as this is not a professional camera". Wow! What a discovery. I know that this is not a professional camera, but I know how photos from an iPhone (4 and 4s) might look like. So I replied that something is strange and I wanted to give my iPhone back to check it (under warranty). The representative replied: "We will not take it, and I'm telling you the pictures are all fine. The camera in iPhone 5s is much worse than it was in iPhone 4s and hence the blurred photos. Just live with that". 
    And now my questions:
    1. Is it true that the pictures must be blurred in iPhone 5s, just because it works so? I can't bvelieve it.
    2. Isn't the fact that they sell iPhones from "unofficial channels" the reason why they don't want to take the iPhone under warranty?
    If anyone from Apple wants to take a closer look at this issue and maybe discover some "strange" actions from Polish official Apple reseller, I'm open to provide you much more details on the purchase, the store location, etc.
    Looking forward to hearing from you,
    Kuba

    iPhones are ONLY sold by Carriers and Apple an Apple reseller is unlikely to be authorised for iPhones and certainly would not sell an iphone with a foreign plug
    You have clearly purchased a grey import a genuine Polish sourced iPhone sold by a legitimate iPhone reseller would have the correct plug for the Country
    Big issue you have is warranty you need to take to an Apple authorised repairer
    https://locate.apple.com/pl/pl/
    luckily as long as iPhone came from UK you do have warranty ,EU is one "country" for Apple warranty purposes

  • USB XFI 5.1 sounds much worse than XFI Xtreme Music

    why does the XFI 5. Surround USB sound so much worse than the internal XFI cards like the Xtreme Music? The USB version sounds really cheap despite using the same settings. I don?t think its broken, I also tried it on 2 different pcs with the same bad result. it sounds like some cheap onboard sound.

  • Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC work slowly together - much worse than CS6

    Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6 worked together really well.  I could have both programs open and make a change in After Effects, then go back to Premiere Pro and see the changes pretty quickly.  Since upgrading both to CC, I can't jump back and forth and see the changes quickly.  I literally have to hit Enter and render the After Effect clip after every freakin' time I make a change to it in order to see it without any pauses or jumpiness in the playback.  CS6 worked great.  I can't express my disappointment in the Creative Cloud "upgrade".   So many things are SO MUCH WORSE!!!   Adobe you have to fix this stuff.

    The speed of the connection is dependent on your hardware and the type of comp you have in AE.
    I haven't noticed any significant performance difference between the two versions (I've also been heavily using dynamic link since CS6 ).
    Some comps will play fine in Premiere, some comps will need rendering. I generally render the clip in Premiere, as opposed to AE.
    If the same comp from CS6 is behaving significantly worse in CC, then you might be on to something, but it is most likely a bug isolated to your hardware config and not a general CC issue.

  • Does any body have any opinions on how much better CS6 is than Cs4?

    Does any body have any opinions on how much better CS6 is than Cs4?  The reason I ask is I am trying to convince my business partner that CS6 is worth buying 

    My pattern has been that every other new version made it worth my while. I spent very little time working in CS4, since I went from CS3, to CS4 with an immediate upgrade to CS5. Then from CS5 to CS5.5 with an immediate upgrade to CS6. I have not gone to the cloud, so cannot comment on the features there. I would still evaluate your price for CS6 against the rental expense.
    I like Todd Kopriva's page laying out the CS6 new/changes features:
    Premiere Pro CS6: what’s new and changed
    That page contains other links (e.g. CS5 and CS5.5 changes).
    In addition to cc_merchant's points about 64 bit (which were HUGE and for CS6 included Encore going to 64 bit), I found these items from the "new" list as important to me:
    adjustment layers (HUGE)
    expanded multi-camera editing, with more multicam angles and improved interface (I hated only having 4 angles, although that usually worked)
    improved color features, including integration with SpeedGrade and redesigned Three-Way Color Corrector effect
    improved workflows with other applications in Adobe Creative Suite, as well as with Final Cut Pro and Avid software
    faster Adobe Media Encoder, redesigned to make authoring for multiple outputs and mobile devices easier (batch processing was added with CS4, but it wasn't until CS6, with other enhancements that I really worked it)
    enhanced Adobe Encore for creation of DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, and web DVDs (Bluray chapter playlists finally; I have used the flash output, which has gotten better at each step)

  • My iPhone 4 has recently started to flicker. I've changed the brightness settings and for a short period of time it was back to normal, but now it is much worse! What am I to do?

    Three days ago I was trying to take a picture, but I couldn't see what I was taking because of the flickering white lines that covered the screen. But when I looked at the image after taking it, it was perfectly fine. So I knew it wasn't the camera playing up. The next day my phone wouldn't allow me to view images without the lines appearing. The following day I changed my brightness settings, and it went back to normal. But now it is much worse. No matter what I try to do the flickering lines are all over the screen! I don't know what to do. I would appreciate any help, thank you!
    These images don't really show the extent of the flickering, but it may give you an idea

    I'm not a fan of DFU mode because I've never seen it recommended by Apple.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Is snow leopard usb backup drive access much much quicker using firewire than with usb 2.0 ?

    is snow leopard usb backup drive access much much quicker using firewire than with usb 2.0 ?

    I migrated from a USB2 external hard drive (when it failed) to the Firewire 800 and have not looked back.  I also sync from that primary drive to a secondary backup drive (still USB2).  Everything I do with the firewire drive is significantly faster than USB2.

  • Why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx?  I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

    why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx?  I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

    I went through updates on my three newest Macs this week.  As I stated I'm talking about iTunes 10.5.1 (42).  I am checking for updates now and I see 10.5.2 is now available.  I'll know in about 15 minutes if this issue is fixed or not.
    15 minutes later:
    I must have updated this PPC G5 a day or two before iTunes 10.5.2 came out.  I was able to update to 10.5.2 (11) and this copy/paste bug is fixed.  I'm happy again.

  • Just how much better is nattres than compressor in converting pal - NTSC?

    I am on the verge of buying the Nattres plugin but before i do i would like to know how much better it is than compressor. I did some test with compressor and the results are unacceptable. I have to send some stock footage to America from here in South Africa. The footage im trying to convert is half Betacam half DVCPROHD.
    Thanks
    Andre
    I have posted this thread in the compressor forum but didnt quite get the answer i was looking for, although it was helpful

    I don't think Natress is over $75.
    Natress is the only plug-in or software that has given us consistent results.
    It also does PAL to NTSC or NTSC to PAL.
    Rendering can take a while depending on the length of your sequence.
    Edit in PAL and when you are done duplicate your sequence and make an NTSC version. You can then avoid having to convert footage that doesn't end up in your final sequence.

  • Is quality better with software for converting VHS to DVD than using an actual converter?

    Is quality better with software for converting VHS to DVD than using an actual converter?

    Not sure what you mean by "actual converter".
    If you mean if you just played a VHS tape to a DVD recorder and recorded like that... You will get close to the quality of the VHS.
    If you have a good capture software and hardware you might be able to clean the video and audio up. But VHS is pretty limited in quality.

  • Another one with much higher BB usage than normal

    Hi,
    This is probably going to sound familiar to lots of people, but we also are recording much higher BB usage than normal. We are only on the 10gb package, as our max 512kb broadband doesn't make it worthwhile trying to do much with the www.
    Our usage is usually pretty close to the 10gb, and in fact we have probably gone over it 3 or 4 times in the last 2 years (I work away a lot, so Skype gets hammered, which I know could be up to about 350mb/hour). Our average usage has been 9.87gb according to BT. I was home at the end of June, and decided to reactivate BT FON, and my wife and I also installed the Smarttalk app. Now, halfway through July, we are already up at over 7gb used.
    The warning e-mail for 6gb used was last night, the usage monitor is already showing over 7gb - that is a heck of a lot of broadband usage for a property with such a slow connection. I have tried tackling BT in the past, and got absolutely nowhere, being told that although they could give me details of the previous weeks usage, they couldn't go back any further because that informaton was unavailable - unsatisfactory response, but that was all I could get.
    Obviously BT are saying we could always go unlimited, but I'd rather find out what the issue is and why this sudden increase - we aren't using that much internet.

    Got the same problem, see my seperate Post.
    Don't wish to hi-jack your post but how can BT be tackeled?
    It's hard to keep a daily check, I would say impossible!

  • Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.

    Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.

    Lots and lots of questions
    The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
    https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
    It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers.

  • Is the Core i7 processor comparable, much slower, or faster than the 2.8 Ghz core 2 duo from 2009?

    I am looking to get a new MacBook Air, but when looking at the prices I am seeing the MacBook Pro 13" for the same price and a lot more guts (RAM and Processor).  I am ok with spending the amount of money on the air if it means I get a computer that is like my iPad, which i love (flash based, snappy), but don't want it to be super slow.
    I am coming off of a 17" 2.8Ghz MacBook Pro from 2009.  I was happy with the speed and power of that machine.  The most taxing thing I did was make a complilation of family movies in iMovie and burned them with iDVD once in the 2 years of ownership. 
    I mostly browse the internet and compose written documents, and keynote presentations.
    I know my questions may seem stupid, but I don't know how significant the changes between i7 and Core 2 Duo are, so I ask the question:
    I am wondering if the processing power in the core i7 will be somewhat comparable, much slower, or faster than the 2.8 Ghz Core 2 Duo I had in my 2009 computer?
    Thanks for any help!!

    Hi brosephb,
    Like you I went through a similar comparison process. I bought the MacBook air 13" and up specced the processor and memory. I don't do anything taxing enough or frequently enough to NEED the extra power of the MacBook pro.
    I am overjoyed at my air. It's gorgeous, the way it wakes instantly, it's speed and it's portableness is so endearing that I just don't use my iPad anymore. I read numerous reviews on it and the overwhelming opinion was it's addictive ease of use because of it's slim, light and rapid waking. At work I can hold the air with one hand, open it rapidly at will. It's just great but it's made my iPad redundant (for me anyway).
    I see the new airs are even faster and I'm tempted to consider selling my 6 month old air and getting the new one, but, it runs a dream so I am happy to just be envious of the new one.
    In short, unless you need the power (for your work) go for the air. I'm looking at a new iMac to use as a home work station. For the price of a new air I can get an iMac that will swallow any task for a good few years to come. And my air will suffice as my mobile companion. However, that's just me spoiling myself as, at the moment, I have no teal need for another mac. I may get the cinema display for any long winded tasks, as the screen size will help with multiple tasking.
    A bit of a ramble, hope this is useful.

  • A SQL tuning issue-sql runs much slower in test than in production?

    Hi Buddies,
    I am working on a sql tuning issue. A sql runs much slower in test than in production.
    I compared the two explain plans in test and production
    seems in test, CBO refuses to use index SUBLEDGER_ENTRY_I2.
    we rebuile it and re-gether that index statistcs. run, still slow..
    I compared the init.ora parameters like hash_area_size, sort_area_size in test, they are same as production.
    I wonder if any expert friend can show some light.

    Hi
    Basically there are two kinds of tables
    - fact
    - lookup
    The number of records in a lookup table is usually small.
    The number of records in a fact table is usually huge.
    However, in test systems the number of records in a fact table is often also small.
    This results in different execution plans.
    I notice again you don't post version and platform info, and you didn't make sure your explain is properly idented
    Please read the FAQ to make sure it is properly idented.
    Also using the word 'buddies' is as far as I am concerned nearing disrespect and rudeness.
