Horizontal Interlaced Scanning Lines in iDVD6

I can confirm some help I got on this forum for a problem I found between Final Cut and iDVD 6.
I imported my Sony Cam DV into Final Cut Express 2.0.3. I cut the video then exported the video as a self contained QuickTime movie. When I burned a DVD, with iDVD6, it looked like crap.
Every horizontal movement of the camera or subject gave me bad interlaced scan lines tearing the borders of all images. I tried exporting again using the QT settings compression h.264. Again I got the scan lines on all horizontal action. Another coaster!
The problem only went away when I set the video export setting to DVDPRO50-NTSC.
I didn't have this problem before on iDVD3. I guess 6 is new and improved. Ha Ha.

iDVD is always the happiest with DV video that's what it is designed for. A "self contained QuickTime movie" may - or may not - be that format.
Another coaster!
'Burn' to a disk image first and check the image out with Apple's DVD Player application BEFORE burning the image to writable media with Apple's Disk Utility application. Save your self a disc or two.

  • Interlacing/ Scan Lines on iPhone 4S Screen + Yellow tint!

    Hi everyone I bought my 64gb IPhone last week and noticed that I have faint interlacing lines on my screen. My serial starts with c39 and I am extremely dissatisfied. I had my iPhone 4 replaced last year and the replacement had this issue as well. I am so sick of Apples qc lately. You can really notice the issue when the display is showing a light grey bg and also the iMovie and Facebook icons. Please respond if you are experiencing this issue. I also have the yellow tinted screen. What is going on Apple?

    I have the some issue with you.I found this interlacing issue with my last Iphone4 in july 2011,and then got  2 replaced iphones having the same problem.when I get my new iphone4S these days,I found the same issue,although its Not easy to observe,and MUCH BETTER then my last iphone4,but its defintely there,I can also notice it!

  • Horizontal scan lines on iMac with mirror monitor

    Hi, I just bought a second monitor which I'm mirroring, using a DVI cable. Everything looks and works great, but when watching video or iTunes visualisation, I occasionally see scan lines on the iMac display, but not the secondary. Also, dragging stuff around is jumpy and funny.

  • IPhone 4s scan lines and other issues?

    So I recently bought an iphone off of craigslist in June  (Biggest mistake I've ever made). I met up with the person and the iphone looked pretty fine to me, who's never had an iphone btw, but as soon as I got home I noticed slight lines going across the screen. They were red and blue. They bothered me, but not too much. It effected the back camera more than the front but I said hey I can live with it considering I got the phone really cheap. Well now it's been 3 months since and it's gotten much worse. The scan lines are worse, the screen freezes, then fades to black. Also when I try to use the camera everything goes green and distorted then turna inverted. And when I try to look at pictures they have vertical lines thru them so I cant even make out what it is. If I really want to see a picture I have to screen shot it to get a quick glimpse. Also I noticed the screen freaks out more when there is color. So say I'm on my screen lock and my screen lock is just white, then the horizontal lines arent too bad. But if I go to my home page were all the apps have color, it freaks out. Or when I go on instagram, it completely wigs out and the screen freezes and fades out. I haven't dropped it accept once off the table and cracked the back, but I had this problem before so I know that's not why. I don't know if it has any water damage from the previous owner. The only thing she mentioned was that the screen was cracked. Please if you know what's wrong or have any advice please let me know. Thank you.

    The screen needs to be replaced.
    You can see if the phone have been in contact with water by looking at the indicators. You'll find dem here: http://km.support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECARE_ALLGEOS/HT3302/HT3302-iphone _4-activated-001-mul.png
    If they turn out to be read that indicates that the phone is water damaged.
    You should talk to folks at apple to here what they can do to help you out.
    Good lock!

  • Pdf files print with horizontal and vertical lines

    All of a sudden, today, when I print pdf files, they print with horizontal and vertical lines.  I thaught it was the computer or printer. So I printed from another computer on the network, and printed to a different printer with the same result.  It is not just that one pdf file either, I have tried multiple files.  HELP.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    It is not clear how you are creating the files. It appears that they were created by Distiller from PS files that were created in some way. I also noted that you are using AA8.1.0. You may want to try to update (do all the updates in order) as a possible fix. It may be in the creation process also. Several packages will split large graphics into parts and create the image. I think this is a characteristic of OFFICE 2007 (docx) files - but I am not sure yet. Tell us how you created the files - step by step, including the scan.
    If you have the original documents, why not simply print to the Adobe PDF printer. The result would be smaller and a lot cleaner.

  • Horizontal black/dotted lines on Apple Studio Display

    As of about six hours ago, my screen is suddenly showing several horizontal 1px thick lines at the top of the screen; they are usually black but sometimes change to alternating black and white dotted line when a window is moved around in the area they're covering. They were not there this morning when I used the computer, they just showed up without warning. I've restarted the system to no avail; any suggestions on next steps or ideas of what might be going on here?

    Hi bogisan
    To clarify, I mentioned in my original post that I'd tested with DV and got the same problem...
    dewshi wrote:
    Actually, it shows the same issue displaying DV-PAL!
    Although I'm working with ProRes, I have already experimented with playing out DV on a DV timeline, which should be less demanding than ProRes, as you're suggesting.
    It doesn't look to me like the familiar cheese-grater artefact associated with interlacing issue as there's only one break in the image, rather than mismatching alternative lines when there is horizontal motion. I've tried different sequence settings for the field order, with no difference.
    I'm wondering if the display is out of sync? It literally looks like the screen has been sliced by a razor 1/3 of the way down, and the bottom part is a different frame to the top. It happens when I scrub through the timeline too, but stabilises once parked on single frame.
    By the way, I've also checked that the MBP has switched to the NVIDIA card rather than the slower, less energy consuming Intel video card.
    Will check out the MBP forum too...
    Thanks

  • Vsync Screen Tearing / Scan Line Issue?

    This is something I noticed on my iMac after updating to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. I noticed a horizontal break in the screen when I was doing any kind of graphic intensive operation. Anything from scrolling up and down on a web page in Safari, to switching screens in Spaces, to bring up my Dashboard or switching users with FUS. By opening a new movie recording in Quicktime X and simply moving the video around, you can clearly see this break is not a random screen tear, but actually some sort of scan line moving from top to bottom in my monitor. I've never seen this prior to Snow Leopard, but I suppose it is possible this is a hardware issue, rather than a software or driver issue. Can anyone else duplicate this on Snow Leopard? I am on a 2007 2.8 Core 2 Extreme iMac with RadeonHD2600 graphics.
    I made a video of the issue and posted to youtube if you want to see what I am talking about.

    I also get this issue in Snow Leopard when connecting my iMac up to a TV via the apply video adaptor. I didn't get this with Leopard and I don't get this on my iMac display.
    I've been through all the video settings I can find (frame rates, display sizes, etc) and each one still has the issue. SL has changed the system preferences for external video so I guess something else may have also changed.

  • Scan lines through transitions

    Hi
    I'm really pretty new to video editing, and I confess I have used a canon 5D mk2 to record my video (love it or hate it, it gives me better video than a cheap camcorder) However, I have successfully got a bunch of clips in HD 1080i but when I try and do transitions between the clips I get this odd scan line effect. Anyone seen this or know what I might be doing wrong?

    Check your settings... as far as I know the Canon 5D MKII doesn't shoot 1080i, it shoots 1080p. Make sure your settings match the footage... interlaced video will show the scanlines on a computer unless you de-interlace it, but if you're working with the MKII you shouldn't have interlacing at all.

  • FCP 10.1.1, iDVD and hideous scan lines...

    Hey,
    I have found that there's a huge difference between output quality between Share --> DVD in FCP X and iDVD.
    I'm working with piles of legacy, interlaced, standard def footage from a mini-DV tape camera. (I just bought a shiny, new HD camcorder, but still have all this old, valuable footage to deal with.)
    If I use the Share --> DVD module of FCP X, I get amazingly good looking results, especially considering the source material. FCP really seems to know how to massage the video to look its best on a DVD. But today I tried for the first time to burn a DVD in iDVD because I wanted the fancy-schmancy chapter menus that iDVD can produce. I produced a Master Video of my project (which looked great in an actual size window but showed obvious scan lines when played full screen) and then used iDVD to burn it to DVD. The results were hideous: ugly, obvious scan lines everwhere -- the FCP X titles looked especially broken up and horrendous.
    Is there a way to get iDVD to output good looking DVD video under these conditions, or do I need to stick with FCP's internal functionality? Or, should I be looking at other DVD burning software? I stopped using Toast a bunch of versions ago because for some mysterious reason, it caused kernel panics on my MacBook Pro, but that was, like, 4 versions ago...
    Eager for your expertise, and thank you.

    Finally, here are 2 grabs from QuickTime player. First is a title image at rest. Second is part of the same title in motion.

  • SD to HD with pillarboxes--keep getting scan lines

    Hello,
    I am attempting to upconvert SD footage to HD, keeping a 4:3 aspect ration to use in a 16:9 timeline. I am attempting to convert it with Compressor, and I successfully get pillarboxes, but I keep getting footage that looks like it has scan lines. I have tried both interlaced and de-interlaced conversions and both come out the same.
    My question is, does anyone know the proper settings for converting SD footage to 1920x1080 HD with pillarboxes?
    OR
    If I just drop the SD footage into the HD timeline and render it, will I have problems during my export?
    What do you do in this scenario?

    Thanks! That was my next step. This project is a mess. The editor was editing an HD film in a 4:3 sequence. After conforming things, some of the elements become pixelated, but I imagine that might have to do with the source footage, no?

    HP LaserJet Pro M1536 just copy and scan lines

    Hi Opp1,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand you are unable to reinstall the printer software.
    I will be happy to help you.
    The print spooler is part of the Windows operating system and if it doesn't stay running the printer software won't install or print.
    You could try the following steps to see if this will resolve the issue.
    Normally with spooler problems the first thing to do is to clear the print queue.
    Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type cmd and press Enter.
    Now type these commands, which are in capitals for clarity:
    NET STOP SPOOLER and press Enter
    DEL %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS\*.* and press Enter
    NET START SPOOLER and press Enter
    EXIT and press Enter
    If you are still having issues with the print spooler stopped then right click on the start button, left click on explore, open the windows folder, open system32 folder, open the spool folder, open the printer's folder, then delete everything on the right window.
    Then go back and try and start the print spooler again.
    Run a full uninstall of the printer software. Disconnect the USB cable.
    To uninstall from CD:
    Go start and select computer.
    Right click on the CD for the printer and left click open in a new window.
    Double click on uninstall.
    Uninstall printer from the C Drive.
    Go to start, computer, c:, windows, program files or program files x86, HP, printer name. Double click uninstall. Restart the computer.
    Check to make sure the print spooler is running.
    Ran the installation again. Don't connect the USB cable until prompted.
    If the print spooler stops again you will need to contact the computer manufacturer to resolve this issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
    Have a great weekend!

  • Green scan lines on some of my photos...

    So i was out hiking and took some selfies.  And some of my photos from my front facing camera has green scan lines on it.  It looks like an effect almost.  But only on some of the photos does it have this on there.  I have no other camera or photo edit apps other than the apple camera.  It stinks too because the only ones with the lines on it were my favorite photos.  Right after taking  the photo nothing seemed out of the ordinary.  The little thumbnail was not green.  But later when i got home to upload them, my 3 best selfies are green.  Like a night vision camera green, with scan lines on it.    Oh I'm on a 4s, iOS 7

    They are still there when i deleted the bg, the first appeared when I used free transform to scale an image on another document. I then went to start again on a new page and the blank document had these lines.
    So i reset my photoshop settings and it stopped happening to new documents however some of my older documents still had them on.
    Also I wasn't using any layer masks or feathers on the document when I first noticed the lines.
    I'm using Adobe cc 2014
