Poor image after RENDER

Okay, so I was able to figure out how to eliminate my background from my text thanks to Michel. So I played it back unrender and it looks great, but when I render the project it seems like the text all of the sudden got compressed and looks blurry so I thought it was just showing me that on the canvas but when I exported the project the text was blurry as well, is there some settings that I need to select? Everything else looks fine just the text in the .png format got compressed.
Thank you,
Daniel

Hi(Bonjour)!
Your sequence must be interlaced as FCE is a fixed format (to DV and AIC) application.
See those links about titling in video editing app:

Poor Quality After Render

Hello. I have been having some problems with Premiere Pro CC after the 7.2 update.
A new one has arisen when i render a video. Normally the quality would improve and i can see it in the preview window. But now after i render a video the quality is so bad and there are sort of screen tears in the video. I know its not my graphics card so can someone help me please i just keep having issues.
Thanks

they do .. a lot... thanks ..
dont forget I dont have your version .. I have cs6 on pc.
dv codec is SD ( ntsc 720x480 .. pal is something else ) and is 30 fps ( 2997).. you got source hd 60fps and your preview settings dont match stuff. .. so the first thing you wanna do is MAKE SURE of your source material ( what it is exactly .. video and audio )... then you make a sequence that matches those settings exactly... ( you probably know that already ).
Now, when rendering for preview you wanna be as UNobtrusive as possible to the orignal source material ( so you see it rendered without compromising the actual source material by changing frame rate or dimensions in px size )..... I would not use avi dv codec for HD material source.
Assuming your source material is what your sequence settings ARE ( they match ).. then I would not use AVI DV codec ( which is SD not HD ) for that. Now I gotta turn on pig computer to see what options might be better for you ..and that will depend in part on how powerful your computer is.. if it can handle certain stuff.. Jim and those guys here probably have their editing on same computer as their internet and can help you really fast... but he was right in the beginning ( I have no clue how he knew this.. ).. when Jim said it was mismatch with DV .. thanks for posting those images cause now I can actually see pretty well what you have going on.

Strange outline on overlaid images after render, but not before.

Hey everyone! Thanks in advance!
I am editing a music video, and I had to mask the brand name of the keyboard for copyright reasons. Basically I made a rectangle that matched the texture of the keyboard and overlaid it, keeping it aligned using motion keyframes.
After completing the keyframes, I thumbed through each frame, and everything looked great, but I needed to render it. After rendering, it had this strange halo/border thing around it making it very obvious that I had tried to cover something up.
The image is a .tiff with transparency. The video is DVCPro HD 1080 30P (Shot interlaced, 3:2 dropdown, de-interlaced) I have Final Cut version 7.0.3. The sequence is set to render in high-precision YUV.
Here are some links to pre-render and post-render images. You can see part of the keyboard just sticking in from the right.

Thanks a bunch guys!

garbage matte a portion of the keyboard without the logo, move it into the right position and place it on top of the video, soften the edges with matte magic

Strange horizontal lines in images after render

Hard to explain but after I rendered, many of my photos which have motion have horizontal lines in them like those hologram toys from the old crackerjacks boxes. The images moves like commanded but there are lines in it.

Yes when I play it or burn to DVD they are still there but not when I am watching it on the timeline. If I render all then sometimes this happens. I've rendered, seen the change, clicked undue and they look good again. Strange. It's not on all of them but some are really really bad. Wish I could show you. I'll think on that and maybe post it to utube or something.

Jumpy Still Images After Render

(I know, another slide show tread...)
I'm making a slide show with zoom and pan key framing (like I used to do with FCE 2.0.3 which worked FINE) with my spiffy new FCE 4.0. The sequence looks fine when I play it from the timeline. If I play the key-framed image in the viewer (pre-render) it appears jumpy. Once I render the sequence, the playback is jumpy. Exported quicktime movies are also jumpy.
I've imported original quality images (3008x2000) in both JPEG and TIFF. I've also imported 1440*957 JPEG (twice the 720x480 canvas as recommended by the FCE help.) I get the same results.
I've read some other posts on similar issues, but they don't seem to be quite like this one.
Thanks Forum.

I read about the de-interlace stuff, and I must confess ignorance, I just don't understand all the surrounding issues with interlacing
when FCE renders the stills, does it interlace it at that time? I'm guessing I can't prevent that from happening?
Let me summarize a few points I understand of interlacing:
- interlacing is the native method for DV either PAL or NTSC (and not only), so whether you are aware or not it is there: it's good because it smoothes motion (50 or 60 images per second in place of 25 or 29,97) but it's bad because it halves the vertical resolution, unless you shoot almost steady videos.
- on the computer you usually do not see interlacing because the playback application (QT or FC or others) blend/drop fields on the fly
- the comb effect you sometimes see on computer results from playing at exactly the same instant 2 different fields shot 1/50 th or 1/60 th of second apart
- on Mac you can see comb effect in QuickTime Pro by setting the High Quality option and in the canvas of FCE and FCP by selecting 100% zoom
- on external interlaced devices (e.g. TV either connected through the firewire and D/A converter, or using DVD players) the comb effect is not visible, and interlacing is fully exploited for its original purpose: smoothing motion.
- +any still taken from a moving video in FCE is a full frame including both fields+ and then showing the comb effect, if there was any motion
So, to answer your questions:
- you should not de-interlace video that will be watched on TV: you'll lose quality on TV even if it might look better on computer
- you should always de-interlace still images taken from moving video (e.g. Make Freeze Frame in FC) to avoid seeing both fields, unless there is no motion
In any case as Ian says try and choose the best result on a case by case basis.

Images that zoom and move jitter after render.

I have a bunch of pictures that I put to music. Some move across the screen or zoom slowly. The images move smoothly until I render them, then it's like the images are on some bumpy path or something. They jitter or bump as they move.
I have de-interlaced the images, have changed the image formats, added max flicker filter, ensured that my render settings were at 100%, have redone the motion, have doubled the resolution of the image file (just in case the pixels were conflicting or having trouble at that resolution), and have adjusted settings in the individual item's properties.
My project was supposed to be delivered to the customer yesterday, but there's no way I'm going to deliver a jittery video. The problem is also equally noticeable on the DVD I produced . I have never had this problem in the past. Like I say, when the render bar is green, everything is smooth. After render, bumpy motion. All the motion (for the most part) is perfectly horizontal or vertical.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I had the exact same problem and was able to overcome it using a hack... this seems to be a bug in FCE.
I fixed it by rotating all my original images 90 degrees, replacing them in the timeline, rotating them back, then applying the zoom effects. They look perfect now. (Strange but true.)
Anyone with a better solution to this issue?

Very Poor Image Quality In Viewer, JPEG Artifacts

I upgraded to Aperture 3 some time ago, and purchased a new Mac Pro specifically for this application. I am an amature/ sometime professional photographer and I have been using Aperture since Version 1. This weekend I finally had some time to sit down with Aperture 3 for some serious work with my scanned film images. These are large TIF masters scanned in with my Nikon CoolScan 9000. Some are medium format black & white Tri-X Pan images, others are 35mm, also black & white Tri-X Pan. Everything scanned in on the Nikon is at the maximum resolution for the master, on the theory that I can always bump it down later if that's necessary.
I am noticing vastly lower image quality in the viewer then with Aperture 2. Specifically, I am seeing massive JPEG artifacts in the viewer image then I have ever seen before. The images also render darker in the viewer then before. These artifacts do not appear when I export my images (say as JPEGS for posting to a web page), or when I print them. The quality of the exported and print images seem just fine and the exported JPEGS are completely free of the artifacts I am seeing in the viewer.
I have tried rebuilding the previews several times, experimenting with different quality settings. I have experimented with different proof profile settings. My printer is an Epson Stylus Photo R1800 and I have tried various paper settings for it as well as other proof profile settings such as the Adobe and Apple RGB settings and the generic grey profiles. Every time I change a setting I have forced a rebuild of the previews to no detectable effect. Nothing I do seems to have any effect whatsoever on the image quality in the viewer which remains relentlessly the same as it always was.
This poor viewer image quality is making it very difficult to work in Aperture 3. I suspect there is a setting somewhere like an easter egg in this new Aperture I haven't found yet but it is becoming very frustraiting and I could use a pointer because, again, nothing I have tried has changed the image quality in the viewer in any way I can detect and the photos look perfectly awful there...darker and loaded with JPEG artifacts. Things export and print just fine, but I need to see what I am going to get in the viewer or I can't do my work.

I interpret this as ... Eventually you should be looking at the Master with the Version changes applied. I'm assuming at this point, you aren't looking at the Preview. Since you don't need Previews to view and edit your images.
Yeah...that's sort of what I gleaned from that text. I was experimenting with the preview settings because I couldn't see any other way to fix the problem. What I'm hearing now is that the problem has no fix. If you scan in black & white film negatives (or anything else that's monochrome I suppose) with the color space set as gray scale you are asking for trouble. The sense I get from the text Gomez Addams referred me to is the behavior in that case is unpredictable, and furthermore film photographers aren't the customer base Apple is trying to cultivate with this product.
Aperture is designed to work with images from digital cameras which use an RGB color space...
Okay...fine. I have several digital cameras I occasionally use for professional work and I am here to tell you Aperture is an absolute blessing for that work. I do shoots every now and then for a local community newspaper and I would not want to live without this product. I remember back when I was a teenager in the 70s being up all night in the darkroom to get an assignment I'd had to cover right before deadline, and then go to my day job the next morning without any sleep. This is much better. And even with the personal art photography it is good to be able to just scan things in and make adjustments in the computer. You can do so much more. I would not want to go back.
But I reckon I need to find something I can rely on for my film work, or at least my black & white film work because as I read this Apple is not supporting film photography with this product and black & white film photography in particular and some of us still use film. No...scanning in my Tri-X negatives in the CoolScan as color produces weird results and anyway Photoshop and GIMP for goodness sakes seem to handle grayscale files just fine. Plus, I've already got thousands of those negatives scanned, I am not rescanning all that in RGB just to satisfy Aperture. The color slide film scans don't seem to be a problem, but that's now. I think I'm being told not to count on That always being the case either.
Aperture is designed to work with images from digital cameras...
Okay...fine...film is old technology after all, Nikon isn't even making their film scanners anymore...check the prices on the few still new-in-the-box ones left out there. My CoolScan 9000 is selling for twice on the second-hand market what I paid for it new and new it wasn't cheap. And yet it's not economically viable for Nikon to continue making them. Film is dying. But I still like working with film and film cameras and I reckon I'll keep doing that until I can't get any more of it and my stash of Tri-X Pan bulk rolls runs out.
Thank you all very much for your help. I think I see what I need to do now.

Greenish tinge, added after render..

I have a problem with a greenish color shift that takes place after render in color 1.0.1
my material was actuall digitized on a G5 with blackmagic decklink,
then media manag'ed' to apple uncompressed 8 bit 422 on an external drive
then copied to my mac pro, where I have an 8core 3.0, 4Gb, ATI X1900. and AJA Kona LHe with latest drivers...
what is going on?
why is the image different before and after render?
I work in PAL, and the material imported into color was Apple Uncompressed 422 8bit codec... and rendered out as the same 422 8bit uncompressed...
unfortunately I do not have a digibeta deck to capture material directly so I have to rely on capturing at another facility...
regards to all,
Elias.

Many many years ago I faced this problem when translating RGB/YUV back and forth in 8-bit files.
Try to use 10-bit files instead and make shure to render in color (internal pixel) using 10-bit at least.
Hope it helps.

Pixles/artifacts showing up after render?

Ok. so working on final cut 7. Cannon 5d footage, hootage is in H.264 (usaly edit in pro rez, but its happening with both formats)
Using magic bullet looks to get the grain and tilt shift look, looks good before i render, but as soon as i do render...well its looks like the image below. Any ideas?

Hi
Me just an amateur (FCP 6.0.6) thinking.
How did You set this - I do like this
Setting it to LOW and Quater - gives me a very bad playback - BUT it doesn't halt due to loss of frames.

HT201335 Airplay Mirror Poor Image Quality on CBS app - help?

Airplay mirror from iMac/iPad to HD TV w/Apple TV has a Poor Image Quality when watching network shows via for example the CBS.com site or the CBS app. The image looks dark, not HD at all. My internet speed/performance is obviously not the issue because Hulu, Netflix etc all come in great using Apple TV ~ sorry, not all that savvy in this department, is the poor picture down to it just being a mirror of the iMac or iPad or is there a setting or something I am missing?

You should use the Acrobat extra menu in word 2010: then edit Preferences and choose Conversion settings : High quality print
Hope it helps

File size extremely high for .avi after render PE 9

I'm very new to PE and have tried to learn quick to redact info (faces etc) in .avi files for a government agency. I was able to open the file (in the trial version) and make the track matte by dragging the original file to the timeline then dragging it again to the video 2 timeline for the top layer, Question 1) is this the same as copy and paste or am I doubling the size already? Anyway, I was able to get the matte and everything done. Now, to Render and save... I choose computer/avi again (I need to keep it the same) and it took 1 hr 45 min to render it, that seemed long to me but maybe not... but mainly the file size was then 100,883 kb! Starting with a 29.7 kb file. This is what my question is about....could this be right? I can't use it if this is what I get. So, here are the particulars as I got G-spot and looked it up, as per serveral suggestions I saw here. I'm trying to understand the CODEC info but I fear I have a ways to go before I can figure out what I did wrong. (This is my test computer, the future work would be done on a newer, better computer). The videos I would be working with come from various sources and will vary in length but will probably all be a kind of avi.
Intel Pentium processor 1600 mhz
221 mhz, 2.00 gb ram
Microsoft windows xp sp3
video:
length: 0:27.261
frms: 817
Kbps: 28770
pic: 720x480
codec: dvsd dvc/dy
I appreciate any help you can give

Thanks for you response and the information was very helpful. I was able to choose and output that gave me a good file size and I do want DV-AVI (I don't remember what I chose but it worked) but, I don't see an option for DV-AVI - is that a general DV output selection, because there seem to be numerous (AVCHD, NTSC, DV STANDARD) acronyms (I have tried to understand what each is) which do I want?

Re: File size extremely high for .avi after render PE 9 created by Bill Hunt in Premiere Elements - View the full discussion
For the use of Track Matte Keying, with say a Gaussian Blur, or maybe Moasic Effect, if you have not altered the In & Out Points, then just dragging the Asset to both Video 1 and Video 2 will work fine. If you HAVE adjusted the In & Out Points, you can just click-drag from the Source Monitor, where you set those In & Out Points, and all is good. The Copy/Paste is just another way to do it.
As you are doing an "overlay," the output File Size will not be affected in any way. You are also limiting the Blur, or Effect on Video 2 to just the area "exposed" by the Track Matte, so the pixel count will not be altered.
As Steve points out, the output CODEC in the AVI will determine the output File Size. File Size is basically determined by the Timeline's Duration and by the Bit-Rate of the output file. With DV-AVI, that Bit-Rate is pretty well set, and your Timeline determines the Duration. At ~ 13GB/hour, a DV-AVI will be pretty large, but that is the nature of the beast. Also, and as Steve points out, if you are going to do additional editing, and will be Importing that file into a New Project, DV-AVI is about as good, as it gets.
Good luck,
Hunt

Has anyone had issues with poor image quality when using lightroom to process raw images from Canon 7dmk2

Hi everyone..
..I have been having image quality issues when using Lightroom to process raw files from a 7d mk2... They are all soft with poor clarity.....tonight in despair I tried processing them using canon's software and they are totally different..."much better"
anyone else had similar problems....Andy

I have a 7D2 and have not had what I interpret as poor image quality that has anything to do with the camera.
Can you post a screenshot of what you’re seeing and what specifically you don’t like? Maybe there is something you can do differently or at least there may be an explanation for what you’re seeing.
And if you have a raw image that you wouldn’t mind sharing in a public forum, upload to http://www.dropbox.com/ then post a public share link to it in a reply, here.
In other words post a screenshot of what you see in LR, another of what you see using DPP, and a link to the raw file you’re processing.

Aperture Light Table - Poor image quality

I am using the Light Table function in Aperture (3.4.5.) and I had an issue with the quality of the images on it, when zoomed in or scaled to fit.
The quality of the (larger spread) images looks poor. As if I zoomed in on a thumbnail.
I was looking for a discussion on this and saw some (archived) threads. None of them solved.
However, I think I have found a workaround.
If you get this situation, you can select the image(s) on the light table and regenerate the preview.
Option-click Menu => Photos => Generate Previews
(note: if you don't use the Option key, you will get Menu => Photos => Update Previews and Aperture may say (unjust) that the preview is already up-to-date).
That solves the poor image quality look.

I just remade the same book - as a test - in the extra large hardback format (ie. the one I used for the previous publication, last year).
This time, the pictures are fine. The images appear to be the same quality in the PDF as the originals - much, much better. The size of the file has increased massively too > up from just 2.6MB to 52.8MB.
So does the books production function work well only with the biggest, most expensive option?
I'd really appreciate some feedback from anyone who's tried the different sizes, and preferably some brilliant ideas to make them all work equally well.

Poor image quality save for web

It doesn't matter whether i'm exporting from Ai or Ps or whether it's CS6 or CC. I have changed the raster settings in Ai and i've also tried all optimization options with all different export file types (jpg, png, gif) at all different quality settings. It doesn't matter if I start with an ai, eps, pdf, png... the export result is always poor quality.
I have tried exporting at 300ppi and that does fix the quality issue and bloats the file size, but this way (the export route) is so time consuming since you have to resize your artwork each time as well as the artboard so that it doesn't cut off pixels. Save for web never used to have these quality issues and it also never used to cut off pixels around the edges. These workarounds prove very time consuming and produce file sizes that are not ideal.
When i first noticed this issue I was using Mavericks with CS6 and since am using Yosemite and Creative Cloud.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create any bitmap or vector graphic in Ai or Ps, It doesn't matter whether you convert text to outlines or not
2. Save for web
3. View image in any application or browser to see poor quality and pixel trimming. Others running the same version and system are not having this issue, but I have checked many forums and found many others that do have this same issue but can't seem to find a solution.
Results:stair stepping, degradation, pixel trimming, general poor image quality
Expected results: Previously the save for web feature allowed for a decent quality image

First try the Cleaner. here's the link for CC but there exists one for Cs6 as well Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Everything I have read says that you kind of have to compromise file-size for quality. Could you post a screenshot of your settings?
also, if it helps: Creative Suite * Optimizing images
