No High Quality Setting for HDV 1080i on QT Export?

hello. a quick question.
when exporting a footage from fce as a quicktime movie in hdv 1080i format, why is it that there is no section for quality settings? because it automatically puts "medium" next to the quality button, whereas i'd naturally would like to see it saying "high"

If your original is HD material export to QuickTime Movie.
There is no setting because AIC uses a fixed data rate.

    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • 'Maximum' Quality Setting for Previews

    Dear Adobe,
    Aside from 'Low', 'Medium', and 'High' settings for standard-size previews, please add a 'Maximum' quality setting (equivalent to 10-12 quality setting for JPEGs in Photoshop).
    As standard previews are generated for imported images or for new edits on images already in Lightroom, sometimes low quality JPEG previews are generated. These previews exhibit color banding & macroblocking artifacts typical of JPEG files (especially in dark areas). Since these previews are used in the Library, Slideshow, Print, and Web modules, it's pretty darn annoying & distracting to stare at low-quality renditions of our images. Switch to Develop module, and a fresh new image is rendered on screen; therefore, these JPEG preview artifacts are not visible in the 'Develop' module.
    Two fixes to this problem:
    1.) Add a 'Maximum' quality setting for previews that Lightroom generates
    2.) Fix it the Aperture, Bridge, iPhoto, 'every-other-software', and your own 'Develop' module way: display the precached preview first, while rending a fresh view of the image in the background... display that when it's ready.
    Here's a forum where I've discussed this previously:
    http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?128@@.3bc33a73
    Here are examples of the low-quality previews generated by Lightroom (when 1680 'High' setting is used for previews):
    http://web.mac.com/rishisanyal/iWeb/Homepage/Macroblocking.jpg
    http://web.mac.com/rishisanyal/iWeb/Homepage/Library.jpg
    http://web.mac.com/rishisanyal/iWeb/Homepage/Library_vs_Develop.jpg
    And if you are using a well calibrated monitor, then look at the macroblocking in the black wool coat in this image (please use a color managed viewer, else the coat will just look black and you won't see the blocking):
    http://web.mac.com/rishisanyal/iWeb/Homepage/Lightroom_JPEGblocking.jpg
    We photographers have discerning eyes. It's painful to see this terrible renditions of our precious images... and to have to switch over to the 'Develop' module *just* to get a high-quality rendition of our image? And meanwhile watch slideshows with low-quality versions (previews) of our images?
    Sounds pretty unacceptable to me.

    So, I'm pretty much convinced now that the problem with low-quality LR previews seems to be mostly isolated to the previews that LR generates after you make edits in the 'Develop' module.
    Upon first import, this image looked fine in the 'Library' & 'Slideshow' modules. After making some edits (color, tone, etc.) in the 'Develop' module, I ended up getting this hideous preview in the 'Library' & 'Slideshow' modules:
    http://web.mac.com/rishisanyal/Lightroom/07-0310_BandingBlocking.jpg
    You people with LCDs will be able to see the JPEG artifacts better than those with CRTs, since LCDs tend to be sharper.
    So, the obvious question is this:
    Does LR, when *re-generating* previews for edited images, ignore the quality-setting for JPEG previews (which I have set to 'high')??

  • Youtube "High Quality" Setting

    Youtube has the High Quality option for some clips on youtube that are 640x480.
    Is there anyway for appletv to select this option if not how do I let the devs know to implement this RIGHT AWAY.

    It was my understanding that AppleTV defaulted to the high quality option, if not avaiable then it shows the crappier version.
    That's my understanding as well. I've actually been pleasantly surprised with the quality of some of the YT vids on my aTV/plasma.
    Here's a little tip for the YouTubers out there......
    (This tip is applicable on YT's website, not through aTV.)
    On most any video on YT where a "High Quality" tag is not offered, simply take the url for that vid and add "&fmt=18". Don't enter the quotations.
    Here's a good example......
    One of those Mac/PC adds in Standard def........
    http://youtube.com/watch?v=KNnX6XRQBec
    (Notice how there's not an option for "High Quality" on that vid.
    Same vid but with HQ code........
    http://youtube.com/watch?v=KNnX6XRQBec&fmt=18
    (Notice how now there's an option for "Standard Quality".)
    If you're really a YT fan, this might be useful to you.
    Enjoy.

  • Need high quality compression for iDVD but don't want letterbox

    I have a FCE project which has moving stills, lots of titling and graphics (from Photoshop) and want a high quality compression to get rid of the interlacing, etc. I need to get this to iDVD.
    If I export as quicktime, it's just ok quality. If I use Sorenson or Animation (as recommended by the Apple creatives), the resulting project looks great but I have letterboxing on the top/bottom in iDVD, which I don't want. I'm using a 4:3 aspect ratio and my FCE project is 720x480.
    What am I doing wrong? I don't have the "preserve aspect using letterbox" checked but get the letter box anyway. (I tried it with this and have a thicker letterbox!)
    Thanks.

    If the material is 4:3 edited in a 4:3 there is no reason for iDVD to letterbox it, unless the iDVD preferences are set to widescreen.
    It's hard to tell where you're going wrong because there are so many variables along the way, and you haven't spelled out what you're doing, format, frame sizes, export settings, etc.
    Whoever told you to export to Sorenson or Animation is completely wrong. You should export to QuickTime Movie. iDVD only accept a couple of formats DV material and HDV in Apple Intermediate Codec, and HD is always widescreen. The HDV 720p format has no interlacing. These formats export from FCE with interlacing unless you switch it off in FCE. You can do this in Item Properties for the sequence. Set the Field Dominance to None.

  • Lightroom Export Quality setting for best Muse slideshow optimization

    Hi,
    I am using Lightroom to prepare images that I will use in Muse slideshows--basic slideshow widget.  In LR, I have cropped virtual copies of everything to the exact proportion I need in Muse.  In the LR Export dialog, I use the Image Sizing dialog to set to my exact pixel dimensions for the images--784x560px, 72ppi.  That's for my desktop version, but I'm using the same images for my tablet and phone versions.  In the LR Export > File Setting dialog, I set JPG, sRGB.
    My question is this: What is the optimal QUALITY setting in the LR Export > File Settings dialog to produce the smallest file size and maintain excellent image quality in Muse webpages?  The QUALITY slider goes from 0 to 100.  Furthermore, since my tablet and phone slideshows are smaller than the desktop slideshow, would I be wise to produce another set of images in LR for each of the three formats, sized for the respective formats?
    Note that I am not using the HiDPI setting in Muse Site Properties > Content.
    Thank you for any help here.

  • How to export a complex Keynote to high quality video for DVD?

    I have had dozens of attempts to turn a complex Keynote into a high quality video.
    Either they turn out disappointiingly way low res
    or they are very choppy with half the transitions gone
    or they Cannot make the video at all
    HELP.
    I need to turn this project in to my client today.

    If you use the DVD export in Keynote 3 with a self playing movie, the quality will be fine...just don't trust what you see on your mac screen, play it on a DVD player to check the quality. I did a test a while back and it was only the pauses that looked bad.
    Read about it here:
    http://www.keynoteuser.com/news/?p=135
    pay close attention to what I complain about...it's just the slide pauses, not the normal motion playback, which means selfplaying stuff looks pretty decent (though never as good as the original, but that's the fault of the DVD format, not Apple).

  • Quality Setting for exporting from After Effects To Final Cut

    I've created an animation in After Effects for Final Cut.  My Export setting are Quicktime  Format Options are RGB, Millions of Colors Pre-Multiplied (Matted)
    Although the font images are clear in After Effects I'm getting pixelized font images on the final product.  See below
    Here's the image before in After Effects before I attempt to render the movie
    Quite a difference as you can see.  Any suggestions for setting coming out to clear up the problem?

    Michelle, are you able to get to the point in the screenshot below? Is ProRes an option there? Does animation or Apple Intermediate Codec show up? Thos might be a couple alternatives if ProRes is unavailable.

  • Best export setting for hdv

    I have some HDV footage that has already been loaded onto my system but I want to convert the footage to a more manageable format so that i can make data disks and share them with people. I also don't want to edit with HDV but converting it to DVCPRO, which I've heard is the best file type to convert it to, takes up way too much space. Any suggestions?

    To share to SHOW or to share to EDIT? DVCPRO HD has a higher data rate than HDV, but like HDV unless people have FCP installed on their system they will not be able to see the footage. Those codecs only come with FCP.
    To VIEW...H.264.

    ie does the multicast rate affect quality?
    Not really. The multicast rate defines the bottom limit of the wireless data rate allowable before the wireless connection is discontinued. If you set this higher, you will cause disconnects if the signal is low. One way to think of this is that a higher multicast rate will decrease the usable range since you have to be closer to the base station to get a high data rate.
