Horiz lines on 16mm video conversion imported in vob format

Imported 16mm video conversion in vob format (properties 25.00fps, image 520x576).  When I magnify frame in monitor screen, quality is excellent.
When I view in Flash flv or export frame (see pic), image degrades and horizontal lines appear on edge of moving objects/people - bit like old low-res monitor.  Some frames seem OK but most are unusable.  Anybody else seen this issue?

In NCH Prism I select the "Add DVD" option.
Output format "AVI", Encoder Options - Video compressor "DV Encoder PAL", Sound compressor "DV Audio", Sound format "48,000 Hz Stereo".
Video Output options "Tick, Resize Video" -> "Shrink or Enlarge ... 720W x 576H".  "Tick, Change framerate 25.00"
Works an absolute treat so far.

  • Problem Exporting a Video Originally Imported using F4V Format

    the last version of flash i used with Macromedia Flash MX. Now i'm using Flash CS6, in fact this is my first time using it and i've been trying to get this task done for just over 12 hours now but i can't seem to figure it out....
    I have 3 videos that i split up into 3 scenes using windows live movie maker
    then i used media encoder to convert all the cenes to F4V
    From there, i imported the first Scene of each video into individual layers in Flash CS6 used the "Load external video with playback Component Method
    The reason why i use that method was because when i use the other method with the video in FLV format the video and audio was out of sync when i exported/test scene
    with the load external video method it works perfect in test scene... pretty much the way i want it to, however when i export the video it doesn't even play my best guess is that's because each video is only on one keyframe. and needs to be converted and action added.
    am i right? where do i go from here? how can i export these scenes... what am i missing?

    these are the supported youtube formats:
    .MOV
    .MPEG4
    .AVI
    .WMV
    .MPEGPS
    .FLV
    3GPP
    WebM
    and, of those, only mov and avi can be exported from flash pro.  those exports are usually unsatisfactory because flash pro is not a video editing program.  ie, you are using the wrong tool for the job. 
    check adobe premiere.

  • Hotshot video conversion resolution?  No full screen ever?

    I have the Pantech Hotshot.  The screen resolution of the phone is 400wide x 240high.  When I convert a video to that resolution the phone always reduces it to 320 wide instead of filling the screen to the 400 wide and makes the 240 high even smaller.  If I convert the video to a larger size it makes the video on screen even smaller.  The only video resolution that works decent is 320x240 which fills the screen top to bottom but leaves black bars right and left.  If its the phone software that's doing it than what's the point of having a screen 400x240 if you can never view a video in that screen filling resolution?  And the video player has no option to zoom or fill the screen.  What is the best resolution to convert a video to view on this phone to fill the screen completely like every phone I've ever had was able to do?  Thanks

    "The screen resolution of the phone is 400wide x 240high.  When I convert a video to that resolution the phone always reduces it to 320 wide instead of filling the screen to the 400 wide and makes the 240 high even smaller.  If I convert the video to a larger size it makes the video on screen even smaller."
    I think you have not found the solution to your situation. We have a non-smartphone (Samsung u370) that, like your phone, has a screen resolution of 400x240 and, like your phone, seemingly won't play a video at the correct resolution when the video is a resolution that exceeds 320x240.
    On this u370 phone while playing a video, there are icons on the screen one of which looks like an "X" with arrows at the end of each of the ends of the "X". Tapping this icons causes the video player to expand the video so that now it's playing at the full horizontal resolution of 400.
    The video player on our flip phones works the same way. Our LG vx8370 has a 320x240 screen. When I play a 320x240 video, initially the video players plays the video at a resolution of 240 x something. When I push up on the directional pad, then the phone expands the video and then plays it at 320x240.
    One more thing. My experience on two different Verizon non-smartphones is the same when it comes to playing widescreen videos -- when I play a video of a resolution such that I have to select the option to expand the video so that the video is playing at the full horizontal resolution of the video, the video player won't show the correct vertical resolution of the widescreen video. Instead, the video player stretches the video to fill the vertical resolution of the phone's screen. While that is tolerable to me for a 16x9 video, my preference is that I find a stretched 2.35:1 video to look unwatchable. The only way that I can preserve the aspect ratio of the widescreen video is to use a video conversion tool that lets me pad the video with blank lines. FFmpeg and mencoder are two tools that have this padding option. So this is what I came up with. Suppose I have a 16:9 widescreen video. The video would need to be about 400x224. Since the video player software on the Verizon non-smartphones will play incorrectly by showing a video stretched to fill the whole screen, I'll need to use the padding command in ffmpeg and add 16 blank lines -- 8 lines above the video and 8 lines below the video. The ffmpeg command for that is
    scale=400:224,pad=400:240:0:8
    ffmpeg will scale the video to 400x224. The pad command tells ffmpeg that the converted video will have a total of 240 vertical lines of which 224 are the video and 16 of which are blank lines. The "8" tells ffmpeg how to center the video -- there'll be 8 lines above the video and 8 lines below the video.
    Since ffmpeg uses a command line interface, two free graphic user interfaces for ffmpeg that I like are Avanti and Pazera:
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Avanti
    http://www.pazera-software.com/products/audio-extractor/
    Pazera uses an older version of ffmpeg which can be updated after installing pazera by, if I remember correctly, just deleting the older ffmpeg file and replacing it with the new one.

  • Best practice video conversion from download

    I am looking for best practice for video conversions.
    I am downloading adobe recordings via this method:
    http://server.adobeconnect.com/xyz/output/filename.zip?download=zip
    From here, I have been converting the FLVs using either freemake video converter or FLV converter. I have tried converting into AVI (XVID), MOV, WMV, etc. (I need the file to be under 600 MB for an hour of recording, therefore it is going to need some type of compression).
    My goal is to import the video into Sony Vegas Pro 10 for further editting. I have found that whatever method I use, the video and audio does not sync properly about 50% of the time. The video time is longer than the audio time usually. Or that there are other various errors, such as the video just freezing halfway through the video.
    I have been using connect for a few years now, but with each update I find (connect 8, 9, etc), that the problems are getting worse. At this point I am just wasting time trying to convert into various formats using various codecs just trying to luck upon one where the video is at least without error.
    What methods are others using to convert the FLV to a workable editable format?

    Can't the FLV files be changed into many different formats through Apple's
    Compressor or Adobe Media Encoder? These formats can then be opened in
    standard video editing software for editing.

    Yes, I use this as a last resort, as the quality of capture this was is
    signifcatnly lower. As well as it is a much more time consuming process. I
    sometimes have over 50 parts of 1 hour video. To use camtasia, you need
    first to record it, then it must be saved in a camtasia format, and then
    lastly rendered into avi or wmv. Therefore, it is does take awhile.
    Really, I feel there shouldnt be so many errors in the conversion process,
    but I am finding the FLV recordings themselves have problems. This last
    file I am looking at, even the recording playback on adobe connect, has
    serious issues with audio and video sync. A problem that is all too common

  • Adobe Premiere Pro Automatically Crops Source Video Upon Import

    This is really confusing me and I've never had this kind of trouble before.  I have source videos that are 720x480, but as soon as I import them into Premiere, they are cropped to 540x480.  It's not a problem with sequence settings or anything, because the imported source file is cropped before it's even in a sequence.  I tried looking on-line for a solution, but couldn't find any.  Does anyone know how this can be fixed...maybe some import settings that I don't know about?
    Here are some screenshots to visually represent what I was saying:
    This is properties of the video
    This is what Premiere automatically does right after the video is imported as a source
    This is a screenshot when played with VLC:
    This is a screenshot when played from the source in Premiere:
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.  This video is due Saturday and all my footage is cropped, please help me.  Thank you!

    11.  Re: Adobe Premiere Pro AND Adobe Premiere Elements 13 Automatically Crops Source Video Upon Import
    My AP Elements (version 13) has exactly the same bug. I have a DVD where 25% of every VOB file's images' right border has been cut away during the inserting phase into Elements. No adjusting of frame and pixel aspect ratios, black borders narrow or wide, project settings automatic or manual do not help. Gone is gone. But the same VOB files play normally (100% image) in many other players/editors. I have experimented with VLC and Wondershare Video Converter. 
    On the other hand Elements is able to read correctly other DVD's VOB files. See discussion about this very same bug in Elements thread.

  • Distortion of Video upon Import

    Hey guys I’ve been searching around for a few days now and haven't been able to come up with any answers so he goes one of my last attempts.
    The other day i was trying to make some random stuff and i captured a test video and imported it to premiere, all went well so i continued. Once i finished capturing the video i needed (100% unchanged settings) i proceeded to import, only for the bottom 3/8ths of the screen to be a green bar. I checked the source video and it was perfectly fine. I shut down and restarted, uploaded the other clips as well and everything is coming out great except for this one particular clip (had this problem once before but i didn’t check the source and wrote it off as a corrupt source) the only difference in the clips are length and the one coming corrupt is larger but it’s only an hour video and that shouldn’t be an issue...
    Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

  • Colorized video during import - Appears to be a bad video signal

    I went to import about 15 minutes of new footage today and the clips being import are all distorted. It's hard to explain, but it looks as though they're colorized or cartoon looking. Not at all real color tones. And there are horizontal lines through the video.
    I've imported previous footage fine before. The only thing new is the new OS, 10.5. Prior to this I've been able to import perfect video and had no problems. I'm using a HDTV camcorder (Canon HV20).
    Has anyone experienced this or know what is causing it?
    Thanks, Brien

    The problem was I was using the previous version of iMovie (5.0.2) and not the latest 6.0.4. Apparently when I download the newer version the installer created a folder called previous version but put the newer version in that folder. So I thought I was using the latest version only to come to find out it was launching the previous version loose in my Applications folder. Obviously a technical glich from Apple that will probably effect a lot of other people over time until they realize this.

  • Losing Audio in Video Conversion m2ts mp4

    I am using a video importing device and software that creates a "m2ts" file.   I can play the created "m2ts" file perfectly using VLC.
    However, neither QuickTime 7 or QuickTime 10.3 will play this file.   When I tried to use MPEG Streamclip I was presented with a pop-up suggesting I need to purchase an additional plug-in, (which I am happy to do). It suggested I go here to purchase.  http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2
    I tried that, but was redirected here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/extending/components.html
    I have no idea if the software I need is at this redirected website.
    The plot thickens.   The importing software has the ability within it to convert video file to a mp4.   I tried that because I have found mp4 to be more compatible.
    Unfortunately,  I lose all audio (the video is perfect) when I try MPEG Streamclip or VLC.  With QuickTime 10.3 I get perfect audio and video.  So, I drag the mp4 file into iMovie 06 (aka iMovie HD) and it begins converting into something. When the conversion is complete the audio is gone!
    I have dumped many mp4 files into iMovie 06, and never had a problem until now.
    Thanks for reading, suggestions appreciated.

    I thought I would report my progress.  ( I have sound now, BUT !! )
    I purchased a video conversion program from the Mac App Store.   It is called “AnyVideo converter HD".  It is well reviewed.
    So, I dropped in my "m2ts" file.  I set the conversion to "Computer MOV 720p HD".  "AnyVideo converter HD" converted a 1 minute video in about 15 seconds to a "mov".   The converted file had excellent picture quality and sound, it played perfectly using QuickTime.
    Then the trouble started.  When I dropped this 60 second clip into iMovie 06 (set for 720p) it's conversion process took 35 minutes ?!?!   The result was flawless!  However, a two-hour video conversion would not be complete until about the time Capt. Kirk joins Starfleet.

  • Source Monitor has horizontal lines along the video

    Hi,
    In the source monitor [only after the video is rendered] I get these horizontal lines across the video. Looks like this http://yfrog.com/7bpremierproblemj
    I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this? Also, the rendered file is fine which really confuses me and if I click on the video in the source monitor then it is restored back to normal, until I click off it then it goes back to having those lines.
    Thanks

    Thanks for correcting me there 'vertical line'.
    I've recently installed new drivers and I still have that problem. Driver errors wouldn't explain why the video is fine when I import it. If my computer struggled to play the video then the exported file would have the vertical lines to, however it is fine.

  • How can I change the default video conversion applied when I copy an AVI file from my PC to my Android HTC One M8 phone?

    Here's the situation...
    I have an Android HTC One M8 phone which I connect via USB cable to my PC, then I use Windows Explorer to drag and drop an AVI file from my PC onto a target folder on the phone. When I would do this after I had first purchased my phone a message box
    would come up with the heading "Convert and Copy" and ask me  "Do you want to convert <filename> before it's copied to your device?" and give me the options "Yes, convert and copy (recommended)" or "No, just
    copy Your file will be copied, but might not play on your device."
    If I chose to convert it converted the file to MP4. No problem, that's what I wanted.
    The problem I now have is that after doing some work with other video applications a while ago where I was outputting WMV files I now find that the default conversion for the above described copy from PC to Android phone now converts files to WMV.
    I simply want it to go back to converting video files copied to my phone as MP4, but I can't seem to find where I can set this!
    It appears that the copy/conversion process in Explorer is being handled in the "Portable Devices Shell Extension" dll - WPDSHEXT.DLL
    Can anyone tell me what I need to do to set the default video conversion back to MP4 ???
    Thanks

    Thanks Rob.
    I actually had no clue what the core problem was caused by. So it's Windows itself...that helps some.
    I'll resubmit there. It might actually have saved time for it to simply have been moved to there instead of off-topic, though I suppose you have to follow protocol.

    I did as you instructed and the situation is better but I don't believe it's solved.

    Do you think I would get even better results if I ran the same command again?

  • ZEN Vision M 30GB Video Conversion problem: black scr

    My husband cannot display any video on his ZEN Vision M 30 GB. Any video converted comes over with ONLY audio, black screen (? no video display )This happened with the original firmware and software. I updated firmware and did all available software updates; no change. I had a previous ZEN Vision M 30GB, which did not have any problem with video conversion and display.Are there any known problems with specific Media Player versions, or QuickTime ?which may be a potential cause of this problem?( I have heard that this product works best with Media Player 9. )Anyone had similar problems, or have any ideas?Thanks,Ravenquille

    Problem apparently solved: Last night, I downloaded and installed the free program, SUPER. My husband has not had a problem so far; been working beautifully! Ravenquille

  • Why are my HD videos all importing with different resolutions?

    Hi, I tried looking through like 10 pages of discussions on here and didn't see anybody else having this problem.
    I have a Canon Vixia HF200, I keep the settings on MXP (highest quality 1920 x 1080). Every time I log and transfer my videos they import at different resolutions (everything from the same day will be the same), some of them come in as 1440 x 1080, 720 x 480, etc, when they should all be 1920 x 1080.
    So, since some of them ended up being a completely different aspect ratio, I went into Motion>Distort and changed them all to 1920 x 1080, and I thought it was fine, but now I'm noticing that some of the videos look really out of focus (it seems like they get more out of focus every time I open it), so I'm thinking I probably shouldn't have stretched them....
    I checked the original videos in the browser and they all say 1920 x 1080 now, when I watch them in the viewer, they actually look like good HD videos, but in the canvas they're out of focus...
    I'm also working with multiple sequences, and when I copy videos from one sequence to another, it changes the resolution/aspect ratio/scale again, and becomes more blurry when I try to fix it.
    So basically, I have a huge mess. I'm working on editing a documentary that I'm making and now most of the video looks bad and I'm not sure how to change it back. I even tried starting a new project and importing the original videos, but they don't seem to have the original quality.
    Anybody know how I can either fix this or somehow replace the clips in the sequence with the originals in the browser to at least get some quality back?
    Also, a lot of the time when I render, I come back to the computer and it says something like "Error: Illegal (something) render failed" and completely loses the rendering that it spent a long time doing.
    I appreciate any help.

    Hi Lisa,
    Your 1920x1080 clips most likely import at their normal frame size, and then you placed them in the wrong sequence. Make sure your +File > Easy Setup+ is set to *Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60* before you create a new sequence.
