Pale colors after Rendering

I'm working with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5, using Windows. I made a slideshow with some pictures and wanted to create a video out of it. Everything worked pretty well but the colors in the rendered video were pale, they just weren't that intense as the actual pictures. In the workspace they look perfect but after I exported the video the color in the rendered movie got washed out, no matter which format i tried (H.246, AVI...) I also tried to change some more settings but nothing changed. I downloaded the latest driver for my graphics (Nvidia Geforce GTX 560) - still the same.
Do you have any ideas? I would appreciate your help, thanks in advance.

OK.
Software players aren't ideal here, as they can introduce change. You need a properly calibrated TV (not a computer monitor) for judging quality, as well as a Blu-ray.

Color linies after rendering

Hi
I have a good video clip with a horisontal sharp transition from blue to red. Then i apply Motion to the clip ( Scale 110 % ) After that I render the clip.
After rendering there is a thin green linie in the transition from blue to red.
Anybody knows how to get rid of this green linie ?
The clip mentioned above is a test clip which i have made. When I use Motion to my clips there are green or red shadows in the color transitions.
Hope for a helping hand - thank you

It's your monitor, computer monitors can not be relied on for color accuracy.
Try setting RT to Unlimited.
Put all your animation on V2, put a Shape (Generators > Shapes > Square) on V1. Make the Square the size and color you want. Before editing it into the Sequence, in the Viewer window, top left, enter the duration you need. This will be more stable with coloring.

Colors in an image comes out different after rendering comp

Hey guys, having an annoying problem.
For a project, I've imported a jpeg file that I made on Photoshop. The colors look perfectly fine on the RAM previews and stuff but after I render it, just that specific jpg image comes washed out. It should be dark grey / almost black but after rendering into .mov that image becomes medium grey. It's noticeably more washed out and lighter. All the other colors in that image are also noticeably lighter as well.
Any ideas whats going on? I have set my working space to my monitors color profile and I have proofed the colors after saving on Photoshop.
Thanks! This is driving me nuts!

I send the composition to the Render Queue and do it from there. I have my render settings to "Best", and output module to "Lossless".
Regarding the codec, I'm not sure about that. How can I find out? Sorry this is my first time really with AE.
EDIT: FIXED!
On the output module, I had it set to Quicktime before. I changed that to H.264 and the colors were fine after that. Whew!
Thanks for all your help Rick!

White Color are grey after rendering !

Hello ! first post on this forum !
I'm working on a composition whith white background ... but after rendering in format such as WMV, and playing this video on different players, the white background look soft grey ! any idea about this problem ?

- broadcast safe colors
- general Gamma adjustments done by your player
- general Gamma adjustments due to color profile (mismatch)
- limitations in the chosen CoDec/ compression
Pick whichever is most likely. For most MPEG derivatives and WMV a color space compression is normal and unfortunately you cannot override these behaviors from within AE in most cases. You will have to use other tools. It is however absolutely possible to improve color perception by adjusting the colors before the compression. I recommend you check out The Meyers' tutorials on broadcast safe treatment or Aharon Rabinowitz podcast on creativeCOW to learn how expanding and compressing color ranges can improve perception and technical quality.

Movie flickers after rendering

Hey fellows,
after rendering my graded clips flicker in all formats even as animation sequenz. It seem's that every half-frame is replaced by black frame. Where in the settings or output-settings could I combine the half-frames?
Any idea?
Thanks

Have you saved the VOBs ripped from your DVD-VIDEO and saved them to your computer hard drive and then are bringing them into Premiere Elements Get Media/Files and Folders? Or, are you following the recommended procedure of placing the DVD-VIDEO DVD disc in the DVD burner drive tray and using Premiere Elements Get Media/"DVD (Camcorder or PC DVD Drive") and the Media Downloader to do the job?
Either way, some people get excellent results. Others do not. For those do not, the remedy is converting the VOBs to DV AVI with the free download MPEG Streamclip
http://www.squared5.com/
and then bring the DV AVI version into Premiere Elements via its Get Media/Files and Folders.
Have we determined that your Premiere Elements project preset (new project dialog) = NTSC DV Standard or Widescreen or the PAL counterpart? And, have we determined that you export will be as NTSC Standard or Widescreen or its PAL counterpart?
The answer is 99.99999999% in that MPEG Streamclip software conversion.

Video "Hits" After Rendering

After I render a piece of my timeline and look at it on our studio monitor, I'm getting a good amount of what I would call "hits" in the video, like hits you would see on an old tape that's past its prime. The timeline has a number of graphics layered on top of one another with text and moving jpegs, with a broadcast safe filter on everything.
I've had weird things appear after rendering before, but they've always gone away after rerendering. This time they're pretty consistently in the same spots.
Any ideas about settings I should look into or other work arounds?

I have seen this on several occasions and there seem to be a few causes.
possibilities:
1) you are using the Broadcast safe filter, if the clipping on your images are extreme you get strange green and white artifacts after rendering. Try using the 3-way color corrector to bring levels down before applying the BS filter. Or if the artifacts are occurring on graphics, make adjustments in Photoshop (or whatever program you created the graphics in) and bring them back into FCP. A lot of people create graphics using the full range of RGB colors and luminance values. NTSC video does not have as large of a chroma and luma range as RGB.
2) You are working in an uncompressed 10-bit sequence and applying filters that are not compatible (for lack of a better word) with Apple's 10-bit codec. (Or you are just getting random render problems in 10-bit). I have had many, many render issues in 10-bit that went away by switching to 8-bit. In most cases you can't really see much difference between 8 and 10 bit video anyway, so why go through the hassle or working with it. If you are doing a lot of green screen work, you may want to reevaluate this argument.
I'm sure there are other possible causes for the problems you're experiencing, but these are the ones I've run into in the past.
Graeme Nattress knows a lot about 10-bit issues in FCP, perhaps he can chime in with some suggestions/explanations.

After Effects rendering with Format MXF OP1a 1080i/25, XDCAM with colour space "HDTV (Rec. 709) 16-235" but after rendering the colour space is "30-217"

Hello!
I have a very annoying problem in After Effects. I'm making an Animation with the format "MXF OP1A, Codec XDCAMHD 50 PAL (4:2:2)" with 8-Bit and with the colour space "HDTV (Rec. 709) 16-235" but after rendering the colour space is not 16-235, it is 30-217 RGB. After I activate the colour space in After Effects, then it shows the right values, but after rendering the value for white is 217 and for black is 30. Hopefully someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
Bye

Thanks for your answer, but i don't know an Adobe Media Composer, you surely mean Adobe Media Encoder, or not? Anyway i do not find the option for colour space in Media Encoder, so i would be very thankful if you could tell me where to find it.

Pixelization after Rendering - Desaturate Highlights?

I'm running Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 (anyone know where I can get the $49 5.1 update?).
I've shot a video on miniDV, and have edited it into an Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 sequence. In the Video Processing tab, I've selected "Render All YUV Material in High-Precision YUV" and set Motion Filtering Quality to "Best."
I've applied two filters to the footage: Color Corrector 3-Way and Desaturate Highlights. There are no other effects, including speed changes.
Prior to rendering my clip, the footage looks like this in the Canvas window:
After rendering, the footage becomes extremely pixellated:
I've tried changing to Apple Intermediate Codec and the result is the same.
Curiously, if I turn off the Desaturate Highlights filter and then render (in Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2), the footage is fine, and looks like the first image above (aside from not having the effects of the Desaturate Highlights filter, of course - which I very much need).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to correct this issue?

There are, unfortunately, known issues with rendering in High-Precision YUV when working in 10-bit in Final Cut Pro.
Any luck attempting to render in simply YUV? (I understand you want to the best quality possible, but it is what it is)
I switched my sequence over to "Render 10-bit material in High-Precision YUV" and got the same result; however, switching it to "Render in 8-bit YUV" cleared it up. Thanks!
Is there a different high-quality codec I could use instead of 10-bit Uncompressed 4:2:2 due to this problem? If I had FCS2 I'd just switch to ProRes, but...well...it's expensive. I may take it to a computer that has FCS2 though and render it in ProRes High-Precision YUV there.
Thanks!

Hey, need help concerning movie quality after rendering;

I'm working with PE7 and Windows XP. I try to insert to my movie vob file (decrypted from my DVD) wchich quality is really perfect what I can see it on any player. As soon as I import this file to PE7 the quality, even after rendering, is terrible low . I mean it is not "smooth" and you can see many single pixels on the monitor. Interesting is: some parts of file is good as oryginal some bad with pixels. Where is a problem: settings, hardware or may be something different ??

Clips goes over red color after importing movies clips

Clips goes overdosed by red color after importing movies clips

I guess it doesn't look like that in the QuickTime player. 640x480? That's a computer form of NTSC yet you're using a PAL frame rate. That's very weird. What's the codec?
You might also check the color space your display is set to, though the clip below it in the browser doesn't show the problem.

Sound problems after rendering

Hi,
Being that I have Premiere Pro 7.0, I am not too sure how much help I will get, but i was hoping that someone here could still help if all possible. Here is my problem. I thought I start practicing developing video lessons for 3d software. These lessons would be created using a screen captureing program, called camStudio. In my first lesson, my first try doing the entire lesson as one video, I found out that the video file size exceeded CamStudio's exporter file size allowance when trying to save out to Microsoft DV 1 AVI file. I then decided to split the lesson into 2, but final compose it as one video in Premiere Pro 7.0. Since the lesson was broken up into 2 screen captured videos, I thought it would make things easier if each screen captured video was in its own simulation. So, in other words, I have created 2 simulations in one project, and then I had nested both of them into the 3rd simulation. For example, simulation 1 was called lesson1 part a, and simulation 2 was named lesson1 part b, and the third simulation was called lesson1. Once I had everything setup, at first everything was working fine, meaing I could see the video and hear the sound tracks. However, after I choose to render the sequence using Microsoft DV11 AVI, I do not get any sound, and yet I made sure that the exporter exports both the video and audio. Furthermore, after rendering the project, going back to Premiere Pro's project, and pressing play, I get the error.... Disk Write Error: Verify drive connection, available disk space and disk access privileges
However, when I go inside simulation 1 or simulation 2, I still hear their sound tracks. One other thing I have noticed is that I get the sound back in the project if I move the orginal simulations into a new simulation. By doing that, I am then able to recover the project,. but if I choose to render again, the same process happens all over again.
Does anyone Have any ideas?
My Specs
Adobe Premiere Pro 7.0
Windows XP SP3
CPU 3.0GHz processor
RAM 512MB

so are you saying that the problem could be comming from how I did my recording with CamStudio? Not to change the subject, but you see, I am kind of lost. My goal is to provide some free video lessons. I was thinking my final encoded videos will be in DivX or XVid. CamStudio does offer users to compress to thise types of format. Howeveer, due to owning a very cheap microphone, those kinds that sit on your desktop, is causing me to have the biggest problem, since there is a good amount of background hissing noise in my recordings. So, I have been using both CamStudio for the screen capturing and Audacity to do the voice recording. Then in Audacity, I try my best of tuning up the voice and removing the background hissing noise. Once that is finished, I then need some sort of video editing software that allows me to put the video and my voice recodring together as well as splicing areas of the lesson where I stutter or slurr my speach a bit, which can be easily fixed in Adobe Premire Pro. However, my version of Premiere does not offer XVid or DivX encoding. I was thinking of using VirtualDub, but I really do not want to have 5 programs, just so that I can fix all of my problems, not to mention I have no $$$$ left. So is there a free better way?

My issue is how can i retain that dialog message.

Hi
You can try and use guard conditions or check the table for data, if there is no data in the table the application will return an error message.

I have a few wedding projects(1-2 hours)I am trying to export at full hd quality,than burn in idvd. After rendering for 8hrs I receive error code that states "file is too big". Please help? compressing tips without losing quality? or any other exporting alternatives?

Hey Z,
Thank you for the tip on exporting by media browser (large) from imovie. But of course, if it's not one thing it's another. Now that I figured how to export a large file from imovie, I have an idvd issue. I followed the instructions for burning from idvd and changing the encoding to professional quality and the burn speed to x4, but I am receiving an error that states the following,
Your project exceeds the maximum content duration. To burn your DVD, change the encoder setting in the Project Info window.
Project:
- total project duration: 79:04 minutes
- total project capacity: 4.327 GB (max. available: 4.172 GB)
Menus:
- number of menus in project: 1 menus
- total menu duration: 0:39 minutes
- total menu capacity: 37.370 MB
Movies:
- total movies duration: 78:25 minutes
- total movies capacity: 4.291 GB
I have searched in the idvd forum for similar issues and I am stumped at this point. I have tried deleting the encoding assets and re launching idvd with the changed preferences, and still the same error. I know you mentioned something about free hard drive space available, and I have very little left. 4GB to be exact due to massive hours of non-edited footage. I am not sure if this is why, but I do not recall ever needing free space to burn memory onto a separate dvd. I would be more than happy if I am wrong, and it would be a quick fix. Otherwise, the technical nightmare continues. It's all a learning process and your expertise is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

PE7 - stop video from running after rendering text titles

Hi gang,
When I add manual "sub-titles" aka text titles to my videos, it works best when I render them as I'm going along with the ENTER key. That's fine but the video then wants to KEEP start playing from the start and that's driving me bananas. Can I turn this off?
Sorry, if this has been mentioned before.
cheerio

Hi Hunt,
Indeed, I would never want the video to playback automatically after rendering.
In PE7, it was exactly where you mentioned.
BTW - rearranging menus is part of the neverending game, that drives us all constant upgraders completey bonkers!!! Just like how AVI export dissappeared and reappeared into SHARE in PE 7. What a nomad! hehe
cheerio!
