How to improve the video quality of jpg clips

I am using several jpg stills in my sequence. They look like crap when I output to QT. Any suggestions?

Regardless of the pixel dimensions of your original images, they are rendered to FCP's current Sequence settings. That might be as low as 720x480. The rest is thrown away.
Make sure you view the files in QuickTime Player 7 not QT Player X and set the preference check box to use High Quality playback.

CCME : how to improve the video quality on VideoOverIP

Hi,
I'm testing Video OVer IP between a CCM and a CCME.
Whe the call is on, the video quality are different :
from the CCM, it is very good
but from the CCME, the quality is less good.
So how can I do to improve this quality.
Best regards

You can improve the video quality on VideoOverIP with QoS. The primary goal of Quality of Service (QoS) is to make network service better and more predictable by providing dedicated bandwidth, controlled jitter and latency, and improved loss characteristics. QoS achieves these goals by providing tools for managing network congestion, shaping network traffic, using expensive wide-area links more efficiently, and setting traffic policies across the network.

How to improve the video quality send by lync 2013?

we have one sip client make call with lync 2013 client, and each other support MS rtv video capabilities, after the sip session begin, then video rtp packet send on each directory, all the time our client send 720p video codec to lync 2013 client
, but we only receive the lower format video codec from lync 2013 , and the video format is changed all the time ,some times is 720p then 960*544, then 960*720, or 630*360,,etc. we wonder how can lync client send stable 720p video codec, and we have acheive
the funtion accord ms-rtp.pdf document, and our client can calculate bandwidth using rtcp step accord ms-rtcp , then we should do what else in order to get stable 720p from lync 2013...thank you.

thank you
now we realy have enoght network bandwidth, is heigher to 4-6Mbps, so I think which is in one right work enviroment.
Now I notice that the video format received from lync 2013 at the begining of the call is 720p, and some times change to 960*720, or 960*544, but for many time it may be change between these three formats, but in some times the video format would
change to 640*360, once which change to this mode then it would keep in this sitiunation for long long time, and would never chanege to the heigher ones so it is one incredible things.
how could we change this sitiuation to get one good video format for heigher video effect.

How to improve the printing quality of pictures, printing a database layout

I have a database that contains also pictures in multimedia containers. If I print a layout containing a picture, the quality of the picture is really bad! Pixeled with big pixels.
Is there a possibility to get better prints?
The pictures are JPEGs of reasonable size.
The picture in the layout on the screen looks MUCH better.
Printing to an PDF and viewing this on the screen is equally bad.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm guessing that your images are JPEGs. AppleWorks changes the resolution of all graphic formats except PICT to 72 dpi. There are a couple of things you can do improve the print quality of images.
1. Turn on Fractional Character widths in Preferences > General > Topic: Text. This is a text setting, but it does improve the print quality of images.
2. Open the image in Preview or GraphicConverter & Save As... a PICT to use in AppleWorks.
PICT is generally the best format to use for inserting or pasting into AppleWorks. I find the resulting graphic can be resized somewhat & the resulting saved AW file is much smaller than if using JPEG or TIFF.

Capturing Video with FX-5900XT - Poor Quality of Image - How to improve the capture quality ?

Hello all,
I would to know what is the best sofware to use when you want to capture Video ?
I used MS Movie Maker, and WinDvd Creator but I didn't like very much of the result, the video had noise, the color and the image definition was not good, is there any way to improve it ?
I am using the last drivers from Nvidia. I generated videos in AVI format and MPEG 2.
I have old videos from my JVC VHS, my connection between my cam and the video board is a RCA Cable. When I see the video in my VCR is good but the digital result was not good.
Is there any software filter ?
Is there any tutorial or White Paper about capture using Nvidia driver ?
Thanks all for your help,
Regards,
Mario Augusto Rodrigues

I can't see a relation between a hardcopy and a analogic movie digitalization ?
Could you explain me ?
In any case the quality of the image is very good in a hardcopy.
Does the Nvidia Capture Drive have some adjust ? Sensibility ? Noise ? Color ? Sharpness ?
Regards,
Mario A. Rodrigues

Any help on what I can do to inprove the quality of my video on dvd?
Thanks.
Skimy Kinyot.

Hello Tom,
Let me clarify: Typically, I am viewing the material on a flat screen TV.
But it was also projected on a big screen in a movie theater for a film festival. (DVD player plugged to a projector)
For the TV screen, I would say the quality is not great but acceptable.
But on a large movie theater screen the artefacts are very visible.
What can I do to improve the quality for a projection?
Cheers.

How to improve poor video quality in iMovie?

I have a movie in iTunes (version 10.6.3). When I play the video, the quality is good on my Mac, on my iPad 3 and on my Apple TV. The Apple TV is hooked to a 42-inch LCD TV.
Next, I open the video file (MP4) using QuickTime Player. I use the Edit and Trim commands to create a 1-minute segment from the video. I save the segment from Quick Time Player. The saved segment is a MOV file. I drag and drop the MOV file back into iTunes. When I play it from iTunes, the quality still is good on all my Apple devices - no noticeable difference from the original.
Now, I import the MOV segment into iMovie 11 (version 9.0.8). At import, I tick the Optimize Video check box and I select the Full - Original Size setting. Once imported, I select Share > Publish To iTunes. I do not make any changes to the video clip in iMovie. I publish to iTunes using all five size settings: Mobile, Medium, Large, HD 720p and HD 1080p. Once in iTunes, I play the video again. Now the quality is poor, lots of pixelation in all five size settings.
iMovie appears to be doing something to the video to degrade its quality. Maybe I have a setting wrong somewhere. Anyone have any suggestions on how to prevent the degradation in video quality? Thx

Hey Brad, the MP4 movie in iTunes is 806 MB. The segment I trimmed in QuickTime Player and saved as an MOV file is 18 MB.
When I export the MOV segment from QuickTime Player to my desktop, the export format options that appear are: Movie; 480p; 720p; and iPad, iPhone 4 & Apple TV. Which do you recommend?
When I do Share > Export Using Quicktime in iMovie, there are a bunch of Export and Use options. Which do you recomend?
Thx

Improving iChat Video Quality

Is there anything one can do to improve the video quality on iChat. The image looks great on Yahoo Messenger and Skype but it's really fuzzy, blurry, distorted, pixelated when using iChat.

Hi
First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500.
Restart iChat.

How can I flip my iphone videos on my PC? My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion

My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion and staggers into normal play. The clips are slightly cut as well, the clips do not roll continuously. I'm taling about videos that are no more than 2 minutes long. I'm frustrated and I could really use some advice-my kids basketball games is what I'm recording and I'm trying to send them to my family (they are not very tech savvy). Thanks

Not it's only function but one for which it was most admirably suited, which is why I really hope someone can find a work around. I am hoping my post to the Apple feedback may prompt a useful response from Apple and I live in hope that my post here will elicit a useful response from another user. I did not miss the the text at the top of the feedback form but you presumably missed my initial text, 'someone here can explain' or my subsequent 'work around from another user'
Just in case anyone reading this has a large collection of music videos, video podcasts or iTunes U then DO NOT upgrade your iPad to iOS 5. If you are considering purchasing the iPad as a useful mobile device to experience these media organised in your iTunes please don't as you will be wasting your money. (unless someone on this forum knows of a way to undo the mess created by those infallible folks at Apple)
Yes I know it does other things but the purpose I bought it for doesn't work anymore

How can I improve the sound quality of my new iPod?

Hey there,
I just received my new iPod with my new MacBook Pro computer.
I have read every bit of documentation i received plus I have scoured resources here on the forum, but I am baffled.
I just synced my iPod for the first time to my Macbook, iTunes,
With the supplied earbuds (from the iPod), the sound is not very good at all. In fact, it the sound of each song seems to break up quite a bit, and the clarity is not very good.
As an experiment, I plugged the earbuds directly into my MacBook using the same songs, same quality, etc, and the MacBook sounds decidedly better.
What can I do to improve the tonal quality that is so lacking in my iPod compared to the same recordings on my computer?
Any tips? Tricks?
Thanks for your input.
Joel

Ok Joel, I think I have the answer for you.
First, the iPod sound. The 5th Gen iPod is a good sounding unit. It has been designed to have a flat, neutral - uncoloured - sound, which is a good thing.
There should not be that much of a difference in sound quality between the iPod and the MacBok Pro. Are you sure that all settings are equal on both units? For instance, make sure that the eq is flat on both units, and same goes for the output level. For the same material being played, the louder one will be perceived as sounding better.
There are ways to improve dramatically the sound you hear from your iPod: (a) better headphones (b) a mini, portable headphone amp.
(a) better headphones: For a good roundup, check out these two sites:
http://store.earphonesolutions.com/shureearphones.html
http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=2
I would say that the new Shure E500 (around US$450) would be on top of my list, price not being an issue. It seems like they're good no matter what you're listening to. All others seem to sound good on, say, classical/acoustic, but are way too flat - read boring - for modern music, such as techno or house, or R&B. The brand "Etymoyics" fall into this category, for example. But then again, some people would disagree, so read as much as you can on one of the forums I mentioned above, Headfi - really good.
(b) mini headphone amp: These are very small and portable, and people who have bought them swear by them. Check out Headfi again, this time on their amp forum:
http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=3
Think about spending about around $500 for a great little portable amp. They're made by enthusists, small-scale companies. Real jewels, some of them, and I mean jewel in terms of quality, not just looks.
Anyway, this should get you started...Good luck.

How is everyone finding the video quality on the new appletv?

I had the old 40GB appletv and got the new one yesterday. To me the video doesn't look as good. Getting a full signal, using the same HDMI cable and playing the exact same video files as before I am finding this on everything from netflix(comparing this to my xbox360 or PS3 actually) to my own video and movies and podcasts ect. Am I just being paranoid or is the video just not as good?

I find the ATV2 to be significantly lower video quality than ATV1.
I have an Mini with an iTunes library I use to stream to my several ATV1s with many movies and TV shows. My "Man Cave" has a Denon 5 HDMI 1080p switcher, with a Mitsubishi 1080p projector on a 110" screen. After doing many A-B comparisons using the same media streaming to both ATV1 and ATV2 in this room, I find the video quality to be significantly lower for the new ATV2 compared to ATV1.
I'm a fan of all things Apple, but I'm really disappointed with Apple's decision to dumb down the ATV2's resolution to 720p, - it REALLY shows on a big screen.
AND, I'm ready for Apple to update the ATV1 software to support Airplay - PLEASE!!
Thx to all who posted on this thread...

Did Apple fix the video quality issue in iMovie '09?

I am a casual video editor and iMovie 08 had the perfect user experience / functionality for what I want to do.
However, the known video quality issue (throwing away interlaced scan lines) made the result unacceptable since I archive our family video on DVDs. I have been forced to use iMovie HD for that reason. I have tried tricks such as converting the original DV files to AIF and deinterlace prior to import into iMovie08 but that did not seem to work either.
So does anyone know if Apple fixed the video quality issue in iMovie '09.
MESSAGE TO APPLE IF YOU ARE LISTENING:
Please fix the video quality in iMovie09 if not already. Yes, the quality is ok for YouTube or Internet video but for those of us who want simple editing to archive our family video we cannot accept poor video quality. Dropping an interlace field effectively halves the vertical resolution. Thank you.

Please explain this in more detail when you say Adaptive Deinterlacer. Are you talking about another program? If so, what program and what are the specific steps.
Also, sounds like you are recommending imovie09. By saying to do the above, are you saying imovie09 still causes you too loose significant quality like imovie08? Are you saying you can use imovie08 or imovie09 with these steps to get high quality video or just imovie09? I guess I just need more specifics on how you do what you are describing and how imovie09 fits into this versus imovie08. I joined this whole discussion trying to figure out if upgrading imovie09 made a difference regarding the whole quality issue. I know it has more features, but I am more concerned about he quality of the video right now. Thanks.
