I'm getting wavy lines on my stills within my timeline

Hi all, it's me again. I have a new issue. I recently did a project using .jpg images and put them to music. I also used LiveType as name keys to highlight what the different sections were. When I exported the project I used the animation codec, none on field dominance and left it at the 720x480. I needed this quick so I used iDVD. When you play the video on a NTSC monitor you see wavy lines along the edges of the photos (the ones that have black as the border) as well as fine lines either from a brick wall or windows. (I know there is a bit of a zebra effect when there are lines already in the image) So I don't know if I just need to start over and import the images as pict or tiff files or if it's a simple fix by using a different codec and appropriate settings.
Any thoughts, I'm open.
Mike

If it's the black border on your pix that waves then you can try a couple of things. You could use a gaussian blur filter, but I would make it really slight like .02-.05.
You might also try putting a soft edge on the border you created for the jpgs

When I cut and paste a word form a pdf file into the search window I get wavy lines, why is this

I am editing a document and wish to look up words and other information. When I select and copy a word from my pdf document and paste it into firefox's search window, I do not get the word but wavy lines instead. How can I remedy this? Example: I am trying to look up Carl Jung and copied this name but when I try pasting it I get this wavy line: ␣␣␣␣␣␣␣␣␣␣

You’re omitting essential information here, namely how exactly do you paste into the message you’re composing in Mail when it crashes. Do you paste by ctrl-clicking (or right-clicking) and choosing Paste from the contextual menu maybe? Try doing Edit > Paste (⌘V) instead; I bet Mail won’t crash if you do that.
And I wouldn’t be surprised if you also have a plug-in or an input manager or a contextual menu item or something like that that has a bearing on this. In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/Contextual Menu Items/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/Contextual Menu Items/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
ls -1 /Library/Contextual\ Menu\ Items/ /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/Contextual\ Menu\ Items/ ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

I'm getting wavy lines on my freeze frame

I've made a freeze frame of a shot looking through an open door. The door frame is in shot. I have added a slow zoom to the freeze frame using motion. As it zooms in the straight lines of the door frame start to go wavy.
What's going on?

That is interlacing. Go to the VIDEO FILTERS>VIDEO and add the DEINTERLACE filter to that.

HT3728 My Time Capsule won't allow me to access my home network each day (intermittently) between about 1000-1800. My modem is working properly, and I can get on-line by hooking my computer straight to my modem, so I know it's the Time Capsule at fault. I

My Time Capsule won't allow me to access my home wireless network for several hours each day -- usually between 1000-1830 or so. My modem is working correctly and I can still get on-line by going straight from my computer (MacBook Pro) to the Ethernet port. It must be the Time Capsule -- any ideas?

Any ideas?
Wireless Interference
Might be caused by a cordless phone in the vicinity. To give you an example, my neighbor.....across the street...used to be able to literally crash my wireless network if he was in his front yard talking on his cordless phone.
I discovered this by accident one day after spending weeks trying figure out why my network would crash at random times.
Other possibilities include a wireless security/camera system near you
Still other things might be an amateur ham radio operator....which should not interfere....but again from experience, I know that this can occur.
Yet another possibility is another wireless network near you that is being turned on and off at random times. Some users power up their modem/router only when they want to do so and leave it off otherwise.
Some general rules to help avoid interference:
Move any cordless phones that you might have as far away as possible from the Time Capsule and/or your computer(s)
Avoid placing other electronic devices....computer, television, amplifier, satellite receiver, etc. near the Time Capsule and/or your computer(s)
Avoid metal surfaces near the Time Capsule and/or your computers
Elevate the Time Capsule as much as possible. Think of it as a water sprinkler....you want to get the room as wet as possible
Experiment with different wireless channels on the Time Capsule. To do this:
Open AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule
Click Edit
Click the Wireless tab
Click Wireless Options
Start with Channel 11 on the 2.4 GHz band and work your way down
It is unlikely that you are picking up interference on the 5 GHz band since there are.....for now at least.....far fewer networks using this frequency.

Jagged wavy lines edge of CRT display with Dual Core Mac mini

My friend recently bought a Dual Core Intel Mac mini and when hooking it up to a 19 inch MAG monitor there are often wavy lines on the edges of the screen. They go up and down both sides, are jagged, and also are not static but moving quickly. Sometimes it seems to behave normally while other times if it doesn't show up on the boot screen it will show up after a little bit of use.
At first it seems that the more stuff I opened the worse it got, so I thought it could be the shared video RAM as he did not upgrade from the original 512 , but that should only slow the computer down anyway. Now I think rather than the RAM I think it could be related to the Apple DVI to VGA adapter, resloution/refresh rate, or just bad video hardware. I can't rule out that it just won't play nice with the majority of CRT monitors out there either. Sometimes changing the resolution/refresh rate helps and other time it doesn't. From what I heard my friend experienced wavy lines somewhat on his own monitor but I don't think it did it when using a DVI to HDMI cable to his Sony 50 LCD (and I didn't see it when hooking it up to mine either).
If anyone has any idea what could be going on I would greatly appreciate it. The reason it is so important is that my friend decided that the Mac mini was kind of an impulse buy and didn't need his iBook and another computer for his TV so he is going to sell it to my brother who is in need of a computer. So I don't want him to get into something that will give him problems right away.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

So is the MAG monitor your brother's monitor? That wasn't clear.
What you are seeing will most likely be limited to the MAG monitor. The MAG is experiencing some kind of noise coupling in to horizontal sync, likely from it's own power supply. You are correct that this will be related to the sync rate. Changing the vertical refresh to something higher, like 85 Hz or higher if available, might help to mask the noise. Also, power supply loading will affect how the noise manifests, so you weren't imagining when you thought that opening more applications made it worse. It didn't have anything to do with the mini but rather the different average picture level on the screen was changing the monitor's power supply loading and hence changing the beat frequency between hsync and the power supply's switching frequency.
I think it is safe to say most of what you see is bound to the monitor and not the mini. Furthermore, if you are stuck with this monitor, you can probably lessen the appearance of the noise by mucking with the refresh rate out of the mini.

The camera app on my iphone 4S is crashing and while using the rear video cam black wavy lines are appearing but only when exposed to flurescent light in addition to the front cam... can any one please tell me what is happening???

Try resetting your phone by holding down the home and off button until the apple symbol comes up. Then if still doing, restore your phone in itunes from your backup.

Ken Burns: wavy line issue during zoom

As a photographer I work exclusively with stills. Regardless of resoultion/format, images with a full-range K.Burns zoom have undulating, wavy lines. This is especially noticeable in compositions with parallel lines, and further intensified by zoom durations over 5 seconds.
This is true even when optimized by iDVD set at "High Quality."
Appreciate any insights/soultions...

The render bar on top of the timeline is dark-green for good-looking images, which according to the final cut manual, means 'no render necessary'
This is misleading. It simply means rendering is not necessary for playback. It does NOT mean that the material does not need to be rendered.
100% zoom level is as close to how your video actually looks that a computer monitor can display.
You never said what format you're working in.
You always have to render still images. You're making video, and they're not video.

I get vertical lines below the text when I type

After upgrading to Firefox 4 in Windows 7 I get vertical line that appear below what I type. This is not happening with other browsers. Anybody else experiencing this or have a solution?

This problem should not be because of hardware acceleration and I think I found the answer. I was getting odd graphical iisues in Firefox 4. Not just with the strange vertical lines. By disabling hardware accelration it did indeed fix the issue with the lines underneath where I typed in boxes. But the other problems were still an issue. I tried to fix the other issue by disabling all my addons and it did not make any difference. BUT when I restarted Firefox 4 in safe mode it did. Which led me to believe something else was at play here.
I remembered the UserChrome.css I had in my Firefox profile folder. I renamed that file and restarted Firefox. All my graphical bugs vanished. Out of curiousity I also enabled hardware acceleration. Voila! No more vertical lines either!
Now I did a reinstall of Firefox 4 just to check if it created a UserChrome.cc file but it did not. So I can only assume that there is something in that old file that others have when upgrading from Firefox 3 that causes this issue and other graphic probs.
I advise anyone who noticed this issue to try renaming UserChrome.css if it exists and see if it resolves the issue or not.

In InDesign CS5, creating a table with wavy line

I've created a table. I want the vertical column to have a wavy line but I can't get the colors to work. See attached. What am I doing wrong?

You're out of luck. If both boxes were the same colour you could have a wavy stroke between them, but not like that. Try making a standard box with a wavy stroke and filling it, you have the same problem. I think Illustrator can do it, but that doesn't help you with your tables!
You can of course chnge the "fill" colour, that won't help you either.

Wavy lines on projector from iMac

I have connected my iMac 27" to a projector connected to a Promethean Board and am getting wavy horizontal lines going down the screen. What can I do? This does not happen with other Mac or PC devices. Can I change monitor refresh rate?

Why am I getting these lines?

Hello everyone.
I have asked this before here and was helped out very well. I have followed the same steps I was told before which worked before but for some reason is not working now. Here is a clip of a Demo I made for a client but I keep getting these lines when someone moves. http://www.simplycaptivating.com/hddemo2.mov
Now someone on this forum had previously helped me with this problem on a diffrent clip, and it worked great. But now when I follow those same steps with this clip I still get the lines. Does anyone have a clue as to why?
Thanks for the help.

What you say sounds like an interlacing problem - interlacing shows up on computer monitors as it is designed for TV. Interlacing is usually much more noticeable during high movement.
However: I usually see interlacing on my monitor, and I don't see it in your file. The only lines I see are vertical ones in the chandelier shot, but I think they are light ray artefacts (and they look fine, a bit like rain if anything).
If it is the interlacing, then you need to apply a deinterlace filter. However if your friends plan to watch it on DVD on a TV, it may not need it. Have you tried burning it as a DVD and watching it on a regular screen?

A black border and semi circle have appeared on my screen of my iPhone 5. It wasn't there this morning it just appeared now a yellow tinge has appeared around the semi circle and sometimes I get a line going across my screen which then disappears

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.
If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained here:

If still no luck, get it serviced by Apple or visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place and let them have a look at your device.

Changin Scale Causes wavy lines

Premiere Pro CC
I'm working w someone else's original cut getting ready to lay to tape (required by client). To create a zoom effect the other editor keyframed the scaling on quite a few shots. For some reason when it is played in the time line it's causing wavy lines (almost a rolling shutter look) in the back ground of the shot. The lines are always in a bush or tree in the back ground, and not on the main subject, but is very noticeable.
I'm working on a late 2013 Mac Pro w/ up to date Creative cloud.
This type of issue is on multiple projects, and different types of camera footage. There is no distortion on the raw footage, or if the shot is placed in the seq w/out the scaling changes.
Any help would be appreciated.

What happens if you get rid of this line?

Magenta cast and wavy lines

Hello forum, having just purchased a new eMac and finding everthing as great as my last one apart from my screen! It seems to me that there is a large area at the centre of the screen with a magenta cast. When calibrated with my Spyder Eye One it gives an even more pronounced cast. When I change resolution (from 1280 x 960 to 1152 x 864) I get a series of wavy lines at the edge of the display. This is not screen I knew and loved on my previous eMac. Is this a common prroblem with this model 1.42 GHz? Do I need to seek Apple support and send the computer back? or is it a setting that can be corrected? Any help or advice Thanks, Tony
powerbook g4 15" emac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Thanks for that Donny, just been talking to Apple and told it is a Known Issue. Been offered a repair or refund. Not really sure about repair, my feeling is the mac is less than a week old and already needs a fix. Has any one else any experience if the repair is a god idea? Think maybe I should move up to iMac. I know that Apple can not replace the eMac as it is discontiuned item. This one was a clearance item New, Unused and unwrapped but with damaged box. Thanks again, Tony
