How to de-interlace Page Peel transition?

I've used the FCE 4 Page Peel transition a number of times in a sequence I've been working on. When I was ready to export to a self-contained QuickTime Movie, I selected the entire NTSC anamorphic sequence and applied the De-interlace filter (the original video came from an SD camcorder recording in 16:9 format). After exporting the QuickTime movie and play it in the QuickTime Player, each Page Peel transition exhibits pretty severe interlacing artifacts (i.e., the edge of the peel has an obvious “comb” appearance instead of a sharp edge.
Is there any simple way to fix that? I tried going back and applying the De-interlace filter to each Page Peel transition, but all the Video Effects->Video filters where usually disabled (I did figure out how to make them enabled by a series of actions), but that didn't seem to affect the transitions.
Thanks.

No, I haven't displayed it on a TV CRT. This project will be burned on a DVD, and some will watch it on a computer, while others will watch on DVD players attached to TVs.
I've seen the interlacing artifacts on my Mac when I play back QuickTime movies from FCE that weren't de-interlaced before exporting: comb-like fringes along edges of moving objects. De-interlacing removes that in the moving images. I'm just trying to figure out how to get it out of the Page-Peel transitions, if possible.
I guess it brings up an interesting question. For video that will be played on both computers and TVs, is it better to leave interlacing alone, or to de-interlace. What looks worse: interlaced video on a computer display, or de-interlaced video on a standard (non-progressive) TV? I don't have much experience with the finer points of interlacing yet, so I'd be interested in what others on this forum think about this.

  • Page Peel Transition

    Hi, all.
    I'm trying to use a page peel transition between two clips, but it's not working what I would consider correctly. These two clips ARE SNAPPED END-TO-END, so there's no gap between them and no blank frame in either one.
    However, when I add the page peel to the end of the first clip, the clip peels off revealing a BLACK background. Once the transition is finished, the first frame of the 2nd clip appears.
    What I WANT to happen is for the page peel of the first clip to reveal the beginning of the 2nd clip below instead of just a black/empty frame.
    Is there some setting to make this work right? Putting the transition at the beginning of the 2nd clip didn't do it either. That just makes the black frame appear before the 2nd clip starts. It looks even weirder actually.
    Anyhow, I'd appreciate your help. Transitions overall in FCE just aren't working intuitively for me. It's rare that I want to transition between a clip and, essentially, nothing (or a matte or whatever). I almost always want to transition BETWEEN TWO CLIPS, but FCE doesn't appear to do that.
    Cheers,
    ALF

    With your added explanation it makes sense. As I suspected, this is a paradigm issue. I didn't realize one had to move the in & out points in order to "make" handles. One does not need to change in & out points when adding transitions to the beginning or end of a single clip, so this inconsistency threw me for a loop.
    I'm not sure why the rules are different for one clip versus two, but based on how much this confuses people Apple should really make a HUGE point of explaining this in the online help or something. Especially since manually moving in & out points to allow transitions is done differently in most other software, including iMovie. Just my $0.02.
    Given how this works, it would make a lot of sense to be able to arbitrarily extend a clip within FCE by holding the last frame. But I don't see how to do that off-hand. The page you reference mentions a "Ripple" tool, but is that what a ripple tool does? That part of the web page didn't make sense to me, but probably because I'm unfamiliar with that paradigm as well.
    Definitely thanks for the clarification and education, though!

  • "Page peel" transition not working...

    I have overlaid a graphic onto my timeline (oops, I mean storyline) and I want it, and only it, "lay" onto the image in a Page peel manner.  The trouble is though that the entire screen image is being overlaid as opposed to just the graphic.  Anyone have any idea how I can get the transition to just affect the graphic and not the entire screen?
    Thanks.

    Perhaps you need to clarifywhat your problem is. Maybe post some screenshots because it works perfectly for me.
    Make sure you have the Direction popup set correctly.
    This is the image curling onto the screen.
    That's the image curling off.

  • Page Peel Transition Problem

    I can't seem to manipulate this transition to work properly - Although I set it to 'peel' from one still image clip (A) to another still image clip (B), it is only revealing the very same clip (A) underneath until about a quarter of the way through the transition when it jumps to image (B) - not at all like turning the page of a book.
    I am a new user, but I've tried changing every variable in the transition settings with no success. Is there something I'm missing?
    iMac with intel   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Sounds as though you don't have enough Media Handles to allow the transition to work.
    Search this forum for Handles or media Handles, there's plenty of info. The manual will explain it as well.

  • Page Peel

    I want to use the Page Peel transition between two Text generated clips.
    I would like to set the background color for the Text Generator to something other than black to achieve the right Page Peel effect.
    How is this done?
    Thanks

    Create a color matte or other image that you want to use as the backing. Drag it into the Well in Page Peel filter controls. That's the little depressed icon with sprocket holes on the sides.

  • How do I create a "page peel" effect?

    is there an effect or 3rd party filter that allows me to lift just the corner of video to reveal something beneath, and then to bring the corner back down. I've seen this in Johnson Wax spots. Corner lifts to reveal their logo. Don't need a full transition like "page peel" . Thanks for all help

    You could use the 'Curl' filter...Effects/Video Filters/Perspective/Curl.
    Tweak the settings and keyframe the movement to taste.

  • Creating a Single Page Peel Interactive Online Brochure

    I'm new to InDesign CS4. Could someone help me in explaining how I can create a single turning page peel interactive online book. I have the job done in InDesign using spread pages format.... and I'm looking to try and output to SWF format as single pages (not spreads). How do insert single pages as I keep getting spreads outputted to SWF format so that a single page displays online and peels to the next page.
    Any suggestions.

  • Page peel problem

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to use page peel to transition between 2 scenes in fcp. The problem I have is that when the upper page peels away, it's still displaying its' contents on the lower page. Then, when the peak of the transition is reached , the upper page then displays the contents of the lower page.
    Is there a way to do the peel, where the upper page displays the contents of the out-going clip and the lower page displays the contents of the in-coming clip?
    Thanks in advance,
    John.

    I can't duplicate your problem. You are adding the page peel to the end of the outgoing clip, correct?
    What you could try as a work around is to move the outgoing clip to a higher track (hold shift while dragging to lock movement to vertical) add the transition and drag the incoming clip's starting point underneath the transition.
    Edit: Just like Megs illustration below in fact....

  • How do I transfer Pages from one user account to another

    How do you transfer Pages from one user account to another on the same Mac?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you haven't modified anything, Pages is installed on /Applications. All users have access to this folder, identified as "Applications" on the Finder sidebar, so you don't have to move anything, because Pages will work on all your users.
    If you have installed Pages on ~/Applications (being ~ your user folder), then you have to move Pages to /Applications. After doing this, you will be able to access to Pages on all users

  • How to add addtitional pages in design view?

    How do I create additional pages in design view?  I have tried using NEW PAGE AFTER, but that doesnt add another page in design view, like I need. 
    I am creating a report that uses 8 subreports per page to dynamically create labels.  Currently I have a report header, and am using the page header to arrange the subreports so the top of each subreport prints on the top of each label.  The fields in the subreports can grow, and fill in the label from the top down. 
    I need to create a multiple pages using this format, but I dont know how to add more pages in design view.  Essentially I need subreports 1-8 on page 1, 9-16 on page 2, etc.  I would like to preserve the formatting I have created thus far, but I can always change it if I have to.

    In attempting to create the label sheets I needed, I ended up creating 14 separate reports (which report on 6 individual queries), because there are 14 pages worth of labels that need to be created.  What I wish to accomplish is to condense these 14 reports down to 6 reports.  One for each query.  What I absolutely cant find a way to do, is to get Crystal Reports to allow me to customize subreports on consecutive pages.  Again, I have 8 subreports on each page, which have been formatted to fit on 8 labels when printed.  Each subreport is identical in design, but has a different range selected (i.e. my driving value in each subreport has been modified with Select Expert to be between 1 and 5, or 6 and 10, or 11 and 15).  This is how I have been able to return 5 consecutive results on each label, with the next label returning the following 5 results. 
    My ultimate question:  Is it possible to create a multi-page report using this method?
