Pixellated type - help!

I'm new to imovie and I've searched for answers to this topic to no avail - so I'm guessing it's something very obvious that I've missed. The problem is that my type looks sharp in Preview but when I add it to my movie it looks really pixellated and the colour is off. How can I make the type render properly?? Help!

Hi alanaalana - welcome to the forum!
Usually, it will look better once it is screened (DVD or whatever). Also, it often improves on the preview screen once you play the clip.
Keep in mind that it is best to use the more standard fonts and in the largest size possible, preferably sans serif, and to avoid red colour for example, as it does not render well.

  • Exporting through Adobe Media Encoder as MPEG2-DVD but quality is pixelated. Help!

    So, I am exporting my project through media encoder - MPEG2-DVD, Quality 5, NTSC, 29.97 drop frame, Progressive, Standard 4:3, VBR 2 Pass, 7.4697, 7.4697, 8.0382, Frames 3 & 15. I have done this process many, many times. Today, I am getting this pixelated junk when I pull the exported file into Encore. It looks smooth in the window prior to export but then it comes out like this. I am using footage that I captured into Premiere Pro and animation created in After Effects. Can anyone help?

  • DVD from HD720 is extremely pixelated- Please Help

    Hi
    I've shot a project with HD (HM171 on a P2 Card) and edited as DVCPRO HD 720
    I've made the film as a multi image (3 layers/images on one screen) and tried exporting to DVD Studio Pro on a number of formats but all results are very heavily pixelated. (3 layers each at 27% size)
    There is a major amount of jagged edges and blockiness to the images and I don't know how to fix this.
    I've exported a normal single channel/single image piece at normal size and it's looked ok.
    The settings I've used are to let DVD Studio Pro encode in SD settings by creating a quicktime export using the current FCP sequence settings.
    I've also encoded through compressor using best quality DVD settings mpeg2 2-pass and still it looks blocky
    Please can anyone help me! I'm so stuck with this

    How's the quality of the FCP exported self-contained movie?
    In Compressor, make a duplicate of the Best Quality 90 minute preset, turn ON Frame Controls and set the Resize to Better or Best, select Progressive and Better.
    What frame rate do you edit at? If your trying to compress 60p MOV down to 30 DVD, Compressor may struggle to maintain quality. Better to start with 30p or better yet 24p in FCP

  • Illustrator CS4 - when I save for web my vectors are pixelated. Help!

    I recently updated to CS4 (I know, I'm still behind the times) but ever since when I 'save for web' my vectors appear pixelated. It seems worse when I want a transparent background. My images are for web and this just won't do. 
    I've read a lot on this and can't seem to fix my problem, but here is what I have tried: Anti-Alias is checked, view > pixel preview, view > overprint preview, object > rasterize, and probably a few other things. If anyone can help me with this issue it would be GREATLY appreciated!! I've attached an image so you can see what I'm talking about. I created this schematic in Illustrator CS4 and saved for web with a transparent background and, as you can see, it appears pixelated everywhere.

    I'm not sure what you're looking for but here is my save for web options. Let me know if you're looking for something else. And thank you for trying to help!!

  • Java Vector to Oracle type; help?

    I've seen only a few postings on this topic, none of which were answered. So I am thinking perhaps a detailed explanation is required? Or is it just too simple to be beyond boring? I need professional help in any event.
    I have an applet users employ to create a table of values. The data model for the table is, ultimately, a Vector, each element of which is itself a Vector with the following fields (all of which are Strings): symbol, label, description, colour, numpar, parent, parsing, objectid. So, I have a Vector of any length comprised of Vectors of length 8.
    On pressing the "SAVE" button I wish the Vector of Vectors to be sent to my Oracle database. To receive the data I created these types in Oracle:
    TYPE LegendItem IS OBJECT(symbol VARCHAR2(50),
    label VARCHAR2(50),
    descrip VARCHAR2(255),
    colour VARCHAR2(20),
    numpar VARCHAR2(10),
    parent VARCHAR2(10),
    parsing VARCHAR2(625),
    objectid VARCHAR2(10));
    TYPE AppletVector IS TABLE OF LegendItem INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    The stored procedure that takes the data and uses it to update (about 25) tables in the schema is defined as
    PROCEDURE loadLegend (legendata IN AppletVector,
                   schemeid IN INTEGER,
                   sourceid IN INTEGER,
                   message OUT VARCHAR2)
    (Message is returned as "success" if there are no exceptions, or the exception parameters if they exist.)
    I am trying
    Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
    Connection conx_out = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@myserveraddress","username", "password");
    CallableStatement feedOra = conx_out.prepareCall("{ call newLegendData.loadLegend(?,?,?,?) }");
    ArrayDescriptor arrDesc = ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("AppletVector", conx_out);
    feedOra.setArray(1, new ARRAY(arrDesc, conx_out, legendModel.getDataVector().toArray()));
    feedOra.setString(2, MakeLegend.mapScheme);
    feedOra.setString(3, MakeLegend.mapSource);
    feedOra.registerOutParameter(4, Types.VARCHAR);
    feedOra.execute();which returns
    setArray(int,java.sql.Array) in java.sql.PreparedStatement cannot be applied to (int,oracle.sql.ARRAY)
    feedOra.setArray(1, new ARRAY(arrDesc, conx_out, legendModel.getDataVector().toArray()));
    ^
    cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : method setString (int,int)
    location: interface java.sql.CallableStatement
                   feedOra.setString(2, MakeLegend.mapScheme);
    ^
    cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : method setString (int,int)
    location: interface java.sql.CallableStatement
                   feedOra.setString(3, MakeLegend.mapSource);
    Is this the way to approach the problem? Should I use a different method? How do I make java.sql.Array == oracle.sql.ARRAY?
    Your suggestions are gratefully received.

    Not a problem, the code will below is the basics
    // the vector of vectors you are going to write.
    Vector aVectorOfVectors;
    // create a ByteArrayOutputStream so you can get the data to create an inout stream
    ByteArrayOutputStream aBaos=new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    // make an objectOutputStream to write your searlizable to.
    ObjectOutputStream anOut = new ObjectOutputStream(aBaos);
    // write your vector of vectors
    anOut.writeObject(anObject);
    // get the byte array from the ByteArrayOutputStream
    byte[]aByteArray = aBaos.toByteArray();
    // create the input stream from the byte array
    ByteArrayInputStream aBais = new ByteArrayInputStream(aByteArray);
    // set this as the binary stream for your column.
    insertPreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(aColumn,  aBais, aByteArray.length);when reading the data you basically do the reverse and cast the result
    ObjectInputStream anInputStream = new ObjectInputStream( theResultSet.getBinaryStream(aColumn));
    Vector aVectorOfVectors = (Vector) anInputStream.readObject();

  • Pixelated preview - Help!!!

    I'm using color with a variety of codecs. With every one of them, the preview is pixelated. I'm using a second monitor (23" Apple HD Display) for my preview monitor). I don't notice the pixelation when I render out SD footage, BUT when I render out DVCPRO HD footage it is still there (even converted the footage to Apples Pro Res first to see if that helps-it didn't).
    I would be happy if I could just see the image without pixelation in parked mode (while grading) and be able to render out HD footage without the pixelation.
    I have changed the Proxy settings - that didn't help either.
    Anyone?

    Once you have your footage back into FCP Under your sequence settings make sure to choose upper field on the interlaced settings even if you are viewing progressive footage see if that helps, in my many hours experience using Color the preview is poor (slightly pixelated)as it doesn't handle footage properly (in my personal experience) possibly due to it been sourced from dvcpro hd given it only seems to display one field on a normal monitor regardless of settings in Color or whether or not it was progressive dvcpro hd footage to start with.

  • Solved! Nat Type Help

    Hello I have a linksys wrt310n versoin 1.0 router and im trying to get an open nat for my ps3 I have set up a static ip for it and I have set up portforward for the ports I have tryed putting the ps3 in the dmz and nothing works the only thing that I found to work is rebooting the router than I get an open nat type I am getting frustrated with this router anyone please help
    firefox

    A known issue with Linksys routers is the NAT Type 3 or anything related to dropping of Internet connectivity during play time. Network Address Translation (NAT) is the ability of a router or firewall to translate a public IP address to a private IP address and vice versa. It adds security to the network by keeping the private IP addresses hidden from the outside world. If you are experiencing Strict or Moderate NAT, here are a few things to help you open up your router’s NAT:
    1. Determining NAT Capability of the Modem
    2. Checking the IP configuration of the Gaming Console
    3. Setting up Port Triggering or Port Forwarding
    4. Checking the UPnP Feature on the Router
    5. Checking the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) Setting of the Router
    6. Upgrading the Router with the Latest Firmware
