Video Bitrate too high, even reducing video quality

I'm having difficulties on building a DVD9 that I need to send to the factory.
Even though I reduced the video quality from 6.6 to 6.4, the problem still happens.
Does anybody have any idea of how to make this thing build, without converting the 2.0 audio to .ac3?
Is the problem, anyhow related to the Max Bitrate, on VBR?
If yes, using a 6.5Mbps CBR will my problem be solved? The quality of the video will be harmed? How bad?
Here are the specifications:
Space occupied: 7.3 GB
Main video:
Duration: 85'
Encode: mpeg2 One pass VBR
Average Bitrate: 6.4Mbps
Max Bitrate: 7.5Mbps
Audio: 2.0 PCM
5.1 Dolby .ac3
Making of:
Duration: 15'
Encode: mpeg2 One pass VBR
Average Bitrate: 6.3Mbps
Max Bitrate: 7.4Mbps
Audio: 2.0 PCM
Menus
3 motion Menus with .ac3 audio
3 static Menus with .ac3 audio

There is a tutorial on the proper settings for AC3 encoding at; http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/a_packwarmouth.html
The tutorial is on A.Pack, which has been since folded into Compressor, but the settings are the same. If its done right, the ac3 file will sound identical to the PCM file.
BTW when you provided audio samples for the client to listen to did you tell them, "This is the compressed ac3 file, and this is the PCM file." Or did you correctly tell them, "Listen to these two files, sample A and sample B, and tell me which sounds better, or do they sound the same." And obviously you cannot have them look at the files because one will be significantly smaller than the other.

Macbook Pro to VIZIO LCD TV via HDMI Grainy Video Quality?

So when I bought my MacBook Pro back in July 2010, I purchased an assortment of accessories to go with it including a special third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter device off of eBay. The HDMI Adapter device works mostly the way I expected it to. That is, the video and audio signal coming out of the MacBook is channeled into the LCD TV display properly so that I can see the computer video display on the LCD TV and sound is also coming out of the TV too.
Just one minor annoyance: video quality. Actually, the picture is perfectly fine and beautiful, except for some reason I get weird video artifacts that are basically tiny specs that quickly fly across the screen very rapidly and they are all over the video display. Almost like the video signal is partially grainy or fuzzy or something.
I've tried to Google to see if anyone has reported any similar problems, but no luck. I wish I knew exactly what device in this process is the culprit of this behavior; i.e. either the MacBook, the HDMI Adapter, the HDMI Cable, or the LCD TV (Vizio SV470XVT 47" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV).
If anyone can help to possibly instruct me how to fix this problem or how to further diagnose the problem, I would greatly appreciate it.

For a 2010+ MBP you can connect with a Displayport to HDMI, which will include Audio.
With older MBP you will need a displayport to HDMI, if you want audio to the actually TV, then you will need to get a cable with either digital out from MBP to the HDMI, or USB audio mixed into the HDMI

Why is playback video quality not as good as the source?

Hi. I'm not new to PrE but am new to the forum.
I've been using PrE 2 for about 7 years. I got a newer computer running Windows 7 and basically was forced to upgrade to PrE 12 because PrE 2 didn't run very well on the newer machine. Once I installed PrE 12, I was eager to jump into my first project on this machine.
I expected that with a newer machine and the latest software, I would get outstanding results--hopefully much better than what I always got with PrE 2 on the old machine. With PrE 2, it was not uncommon that the imported video seemed lossy on playback or for whatever other reason seemed not as good as the source video.
Unfortunately, the results on the new/new were no better than the old/old. So I switched to my wife's (even newer) machine running Windows 8 and got the same results. Then I thought that perhaps the output to DVD would be better than what I saw in the PrE editor. No dice.
The video quality of the source isn't the greatest (see below), but I expected that the PrE 12 would be no worse.
What went wrong?
Here's what i'm working with on the current project:
Machine 1:
HP EliteBook 8560w
Intel Core i7-2640M 2.8 GHz CPU
Window 7 Enterprise SP1
2 GB RAM
360 GB available HD space
Machine 2:
Dell Inspiron 3521
Intel Pentium 2117U 1.8 GHz CPU
Windows 8 Touchscreen
4 GB RAM
400+ GB available HD space
Video Source:
iPhone 4 video (MOV format)
Thanks for ANY help you can give me.
BTW, I noticed that Steve Grisetti is one of the frequent commenters on this forum. In case you're reading this, Steve, I want to thank you and Chuck E. for your PrE books. I purchased one several years ago and found it extremely helpful. And surprisingly, I found that with PrE 12 I could still use the book that I purchased before because most of it was still relevant to the new software. Still a great purchase!!

Please excuse if I mention things you may already be aware of, but I did not want to take anything for granted.
The installed RAM on Machine 1 is too low for HD work, and I wonder about the processor on Machine 2 even though it has more installed RAM than that on Machine 1. For now, I will bypass the usual drills and get to the source media and project settings.
1. From what I can put together, your source media from iPhone 4 are 720p up to 30 frames per second. That usually translates into a variable frame rate which can be problematic for Premiere Elements. The variable can lead to audio out of sync, but not necessarily. If all else fails, then it is onto HandBrake or the like to change the variable into a constant frame rate.
2. One of the features of version 11 and 12 is the program taking over the setting of the project setting based on the properties of the first video drag to the Timeline. Some times it does it OK, sometimes not. When not, then you set the project preset manually yourself based on what you know to be the properties of your source media. Please refer to the following which includes how to set the project preset manually.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
Based on what I have read about the properties of the iPhone 4 video, I would suggest the project preset (assuming a NTSC set up)
NTSC
AVCHD
AVCHD-LITE 720p30
One of the important things to remember is that Premiere Elements 11 and 12 have as their default project preset
NTSC
AVCHD
Full HD1080i30
and not the NTSC DV Standard of versions earlier than 11.
When 11 and 12 do not get the automatic project preset correct, they do not give you the closest fit, rather they give you their
default NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 which is not going to be appropriate for 720p video.
Classically it is written if you have the correct project preset you should have no colored line over the content when you bring the video to
the Timeline manually set. But, just the variable frame rate can trigger the unrendered indicator (orange instead of red in versions 11 and 12).
So, rendering the Timeline would be indicated to get the best possible preview under these circumstances.
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on either of your computers?
More later.

Did Apple fix the video quality issue in iMovie '09?

I am a casual video editor and iMovie 08 had the perfect user experience / functionality for what I want to do.
However, the known video quality issue (throwing away interlaced scan lines) made the result unacceptable since I archive our family video on DVDs. I have been forced to use iMovie HD for that reason. I have tried tricks such as converting the original DV files to AIF and deinterlace prior to import into iMovie08 but that did not seem to work either.
So does anyone know if Apple fixed the video quality issue in iMovie '09.
MESSAGE TO APPLE IF YOU ARE LISTENING:
Please fix the video quality in iMovie09 if not already. Yes, the quality is ok for YouTube or Internet video but for those of us who want simple editing to archive our family video we cannot accept poor video quality. Dropping an interlace field effectively halves the vertical resolution. Thank you.

Please explain this in more detail when you say Adaptive Deinterlacer. Are you talking about another program? If so, what program and what are the specific steps.
Also, sounds like you are recommending imovie09. By saying to do the above, are you saying imovie09 still causes you too loose significant quality like imovie08? Are you saying you can use imovie08 or imovie09 with these steps to get high quality video or just imovie09? I guess I just need more specifics on how you do what you are describing and how imovie09 fits into this versus imovie08. I joined this whole discussion trying to figure out if upgrading imovie09 made a difference regarding the whole quality issue. I know it has more features, but I am more concerned about he quality of the video right now. Thanks.

IChat video quality better with .Mac subscriber than with AIM?

The quality of my video chats with one brother who also has a .Mac account is noticeably better than my chats with another brother, who uses iChat with an AIM account. I'm in the US, they are both in UK. All of us have almost identical iMacs. The one with the AIM account supposedly has a faster Internet connection. My question: is the video quality of iChat better if both users have .Mac accounts than if one has an AIM account?

The Screen names make no difference.
It is about a combination of Proccessor, Video card in iChat 4, internet Connection and settings and the amount of Bandwidth you get out of that connection.
As Defcom (UK) has said start with those basic Settings.
In iChat 3 and 2 the Quicktime setting when on Automatic is read as a 0 (zero) and this effectively Caps iChat.
In iChat 4 the Automatic setting is seen as 384k which is the MINIMUM for a 4 way chat.
As far as an Internet Connection goes this should be at Least 100k in both Up and Downloads.
Due to some data stream management to cut down on Peer-to-Peer file Sharing it pays to limit iChat in the Video Section Bandwidth Limit section to slip under the Radar as it were. There are two main ISP doing this Comcast and Road Runner in the States.
Verizon offer a FioS fibre service that is not that stable in speeds and jumps all over the place which is then too fast for iChat to keep up and that should use the cap in iChat Preferences as well.

Still bad video quality

even is catalyst cs 5.5 two of my problems do not resolve.
bad video quality in fullscreen. i have some videos for offline view (768x576 @ 2600 kbps) but still fullscreen view is messed up, all blocky, not proper video interpolation. in vlc or any other player the flv file looks fine!
the videos also have a 4:3 ratio and show white borders in fullscreen on a 16:9 screen in letterbox, how can make the borders black?
is there any solution?

Hi
as example
Creating a PAL movie in iMovie HD 6 then import this into a NTSC iDVD project
• Works but with a losy quality
I do use JESDeinterlacer3.2.2 and let this do the PAL to NTSC conversion
Now burned as an NTSC iDVD project
• Best result possibly without buying PRO-applications for $$$$$$$
This way should work the other way around too.
Most modern PAL DVD-players can playback NTSC (if TV is old in Bl/W)
Most modern NTSC DVD-players can't playback PAL
If playbacked on a Mac PAL or NTSC is of no interest.

How do I get good video quality?

I can't seem to get more then 20 fps and not so hot video out of iChat AV. With what should be pretty good connections, I still get stopping or pixelation at times, so I've been trying to isolate the issue.
Conferencing over an airport on an in-house system for a test, with 2.4 megs of pipe (showing in Connection Doctor; other tests show 10 megs up and down) using either iSight or a DV camera, I get 20 fps, no more. OS 10.5.3 on both sides, Quicktime 7.5 on both sides. Intel Duo 2Ghz with 1 Ghz ram on one side, G5 with 5 gigs of ram on the other. One way video chat. No other apps running. No other traffic on the Airport.
We're trying to use this for student "live shots" over the internet. The quality of the video frankly used to be a lot higher with earlier versions.
I don't get it. If it is possible to get 640 X 480, 30 fps out of this, I can't figure it out. Hopefully, one of you will know how to do it. Do I need to install Quicktime Pro? Is there some magic button or setting somewhere? (yes, i is set on LAN) Do I use another application that has low latency like iChat AV but better video quality? Is there an appliance that will do this better? Is there a way to set up a point to point conference? (Quicktime Broadcaster allows this, but has long latency... too long to be usable for our purposes.)
So I'm not getting why I can't do this. Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Ralph,
Thanks. I've increased the RAM size on both sides, have a blazing fast connection, and use prosumer cameras with good glass and lighting. The boxes on both ends are dedicated to this with nothing else running. I've even met with our campus IT lines to make sure there are blocks or plugs on ports. No good.
I guess its in the CPU or something. It's a bit annoying. I'm a really big fan of iChat. We've used it for "live shots" on election night and as broadband field "live shots" over a 3G telephony connection and wireless broadband. Nothing else we've found is better. It just seems to handle video quality less well in the last couple of versions.
If anyone knows the magic formula.... X- machine, X-plug in, X-external box, X-side processor, I'm interested.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Video quality difficulties with Vimeo and Youtube sites and with smart phone

Ever since the Vimeo and Youtube sites have changed, it has been pretty difficult to get the video quality I had before. I'm using Final Cut Express to edit, Quicktime Player to resize the video to 640x480 (is too wide when saving FCE project as Quicktime movie), and Jes Deinterlacer to remove all of the jaggies that the original deinterlacing on FCE doesn't fully do (skateboarding video). I'm aware Final Cut Express 4 is a discontinued product, and Apple support over the phone can't help me. The quality is TERRIBLE on my smart phone, and used to be really good before the site changed. The Vimeo app played my videos very clear. I'm using a MyTouch smart phone. I want to know if the quality being bad on mobile is because of the sites being changed, and if there is anything I can do to get the quality I want. I've worked on this the past three weeks, and this is my final option, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Here are the steps I'm using to export (still trying more export options in Jes Deinterlacer).
Step 1: In FCE, click "File", "Export", "Quicktime Movie". In "Include:", choose "Audio and Video", "All Markers" for "Markers:", and check box "Make Movie Self-Contained".
Step 2: Open file in QT Player. Click "Window" (at the top between "View" and "Help"), and choose "Show Movie Properties". Click "Video Track", and click "Visual Settings". Change the dimensions (which are supposed to be 720x480 4:3 but the video is stretched). Enter "640 x 480" for "Scaled Size:", then same with "Offset:" Keep "Preserve Aspect Ratio" unchecked, then when finished entering numbers check it (doesn't let you uncheck it which would be best). Check the "High Quality" box if it hasn't already been checked. Close the window, and click "File", and then "Save".
Step 3: Open file in Jes Deinterlacer. In "Input", check box "Reinterlace Chroma", choose "Video range", and check "Remove Jaggies". For "Project", choose "Deinterlace" and "Use Bottom Field". Check "Adaptive", "Local", and "Filter Chroma". In "Output", choose "Video range". Choose "Export", and "Mpeg-4". For "File Format:" choose "MP4", for "Video Format:" choose "H.264", and for "Data Rate:" enter "2000" for "kbits/sec". Leave "Optimized for:" "Download" as is. Choose "640x480 VGA" for "Image Size:", and "Current" for "Frame Rate:". For "Key Frame:" choose "Every", and enter "24" for "frames". Click "Video Options". Leave the "Main" box checked, and check "Baseline" for "Restrict Profile(s) to:". Choose "Best Quality (Multi-pass)" for "Encoding Mode:". Click "Ok". Click "Audio" (since done with "Video"). For "Audio Format:" choose "AAC-LC (Music), for "Data Rate:" choose "320 kbps", for "Channels:" leave as "Stereo", for "Output Sample Rate:" choose "44.100 kHz", and for "Encoding Quality:" choose "Best". Click "Ok" (leave "Streaming" alone).

First, I would do a Search on this forum for "FRAPS." There are several articles with comments on the best workflow and also settings for Import and for Export.
Next, YouTube is trobulesome. First, they re-encode everything and their specs seem to change weekly. It's tough to find out what they want on any given day. I'd go to their site and get the very latest instructions and attempt to duplicate those perfectly, knowing that they might be different tomorrow.
Good luck with this one, and good luck with the FRAPS footage.

Best trade-off... File size vs. video quality

For several years, I have been creating a .WMV format video file after recording our church's Sunday sermon (using Premiere Pro). Today, for example, I processed the 40 minute sermon down to a 40MByte .WMV file with "decent" quality. The only problem has been that folk who come to our website (sermons are at http://www.calvarychristianchurch.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=dspSermonSeries, if anyone wants to see the current video quality or lack thereof) using a Mac don't seem to be able to play the file WITH SOUND (the video portion works fine)! So, I'm looking to go to another format, but I would REALLY welcome suggestions as to what would be to best format to get at least as good video quality in a file not TOO much larger than my current .WMVs, that is playable both in WMPlayer on the PC and in whatever the comparable player is on the Mac (I presume QuickTime, but haven't played with a Mac in YEARS, so don't know...)!
I'm using PPro CS5.5 with an Intel i5 processor, if that helps any. Oh, one last parameter... Currently my computer crunches the files in 15-20 minutes. I could go lnger if I >had< to do so, but would prefer not having to wait forever!
Thanks in advance!

BH,
Just a quick response... The minister is wearing a wireless mic, so no boom mic is needed. I may not have given the recorded video's audio track enough gain, however.
Thanks!

Is the music-video quality worth $1.99?

This is my time line: I downloaded the iPod commercial (w/ U2 in it). I bought music videos.
I have to confess that the video and sound quality for music videos are way too low for $1.99. I expected the quality JUST AS IN THE AD but it is only a very small fraction of it. The commercial might be misleading. It is good but it does not reflect the reality of the product. Gotta check on that.
I understand that there might be limitations with the iPod. That's acceptable but what if I want to watch these videos in the computer? Shouldn't the software down-sample the videos for the iPod while maintaining a full-quality copy for desktop viewing?
You can legally download most of the music videos at the same size for free from well known sources (that are even related to Apple). Yes, some of the have lower video and sound quality BUT these are neither intended for HD TV viewing?
My two dollars: Make them larger and better and make iTunes install a reduced video for the iPod. Otherwise is only worth like $0.49.

I too am very disappointed by video quality especially for the price. If it had said it was 320x240 on iTunes Music Store I wouldn't even have thought about buying it. They are definitely misleading most people to think it's full quality. I know it needs to be 320x240 for an iPod but I'm down loading it to my computer and would expect at least 640x480 come on!! You should have to compress it for the iPod the same as you would with CD's. That's why I don't buy music from iTunes Music Store because the quality is too low for my standards. Now it's the same reason I won't buy videos either. Well thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Wish I had found these posts prior to buying my first and last item from iTunes, a Jane's Addiction "Ocean Size" music video... : (

Poor Video quality when importing from SONY DCR-SR100

I am brand new to Mac and iMovie and FCE. One of the reasons I switched to Mac was frustration over poor video output from Windows based video editing programs. When importing video from the SR100 into iMovie and then iDVD, the DVD quality is noticeably poorer than when the camera is connected directly to the Plasma TV. I have been reading these forums and loaded MPEG Streamclip and purchased the Quicktime MPEG2 Download, but I still can't get the video output to look as good as the camera. I obviously have some learning to do, but is there any hope of achieving equal quality output from a DVD as straight from the camera? Is there a good source of information/textbook on this topic? The biggest improvement comes from using the "de-interlace" option in MPEG Streamclip, but the overall quality of the video appears washed out and somewhat blotchy compared to the direct camera footage.

Welcome to the macworld! What imovie does incredibly well is make it easy to create fun and interesting movies. I have used both for several years and only recently with some packages such as adobe premiere elements has the windows world kept up with the mac with respect to ease of use! And even know the packages are still not as easy as imovie. Anyway, with respect to your post and getting the video quality to the best possible output quality using DV material, you are on the right path. The best workflow is to use streamclip and de-interlace prior to editing in imovie. I am not sure if you are doing that yet with your workflow. Yes, its an extra step, but it is well worth it to avoid imovie dropping a field upon export. You can play around with the adjustments to increase contrast, color and et al on the adjustment button. Another option is shooting progressive.
To set expectations, it is second generation footage the minute its imported. However, you should be still getting very good results. FCE gets footage closer to the original footage since it is a true DV editor and uses both fields, but imovie is still preferred by me because of how easy it is to skim, tag and find the material you want then easily do transitions and ken burns for photo's. Fantastic. The way i look at it....watching footage straight from the camera is the worst quality you can get -- It's like listening to your spouse talk and talk and talk and never get to the point until you forget what that point was....editing gets the footage straight to the point....thats quality!

Can't Change YouTube Video Quality

Ever since my upgrade to Safari 5.1.2 I can no longer adjust the video quality settingson YouTube. Additionally, the load portion of the progress bar (the gray part) doesn't appear.
I'm not sure if this is becuse of a change to YouTubes look, but it works fine in Google's Chrome browser. I see the gray load progress bar and when I click on the video quality setting, the video pauses as it always used to and then begins where it left off in a better quality.
On Safari I just see a spinning icon next to the video quality number and then evnetually the number changes, but I don't think the quality gets any better.
I've made sure the version of Flash Player is at the latest too.
And on the topic of flash video... both YouTube and Hulu video freeze quite often now when in full screen but the audio keeps playing through. So, lots of problems trying to watch flash video recently.
EDIT: The same problems in Safari are in Firefox as well. So maybe this isn't a Safari specific related issue.

Try uninstalling the current Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
If that doesn't help, try deleting Flash cookies > Flush.app – Flash Cookie Removal Tool For OS X | MacHacks.TV
Try emptying the Safari cache more often. Either from the Safari menu bar, Safari > Empty Cache or Command + Option + E on your keyboard.

Slideshow - Video Quality

I wish there will be some improvement in the video quality for "Export Video" from the Slideshow module of LR4. One of the main reasons I upgraded to LR3 was the Export Video feature. When I noticed the 'too-much' loss of image quality, I was disappointed but still have hope for future enhancement in the new version of LR. At least, it will be nice to offer an option to have higher bitrate or video quality in the LR4. So far, I did not see any changes in the Slideshow module at all. Hopefully, I just missed seeing it.

Sean, were you thinking of the EXPORT PDF feature when you mentioned about user preset? I was talking about the EXPORT VIDEO feature. If LR4 can offer similar setting (that can be changed by users) for both EXPORT PDF and EXPORT VIDEO, I think it will be a big step forward.
Another area in the slideshow module that needs some enhancement is the limitation of selecting ONLY ONE music file under SOUNDTRACK. Currently the only workaround I am aware of is to use an audio editor to link multiple sound files and create a much longer sound file in order to accumulate a relatively long slideshow.

Video quality playback choice

I don't know if this idea has already been suggested, but it is actually 5 years overdue. So here it goes.
Is it possible in the next update for Apple to offer a video playback option of SD(240p or 360p), HQ(480p, or 720p), or HD(1080p) on the Iphone screen, of cource depending upon what the maximum allowment of the screen playback is. How I mean by this is that no matter if you are on wifi, 3g-4g(AT&T), or LTE, you have a choice of video quality playback options sitting somewhere on the screen; especially youtube, I would like the option to playback video in standard quality, high quality, or hi defination (pending upon phone hardware).
Thank you very much.

Thank you Russ for your reply. I have actually run this both ways, one time as a project and the other time out of the timeline. Each time the video goes widescreen and the quality is less than if I run it in Quicktime and Imovie. I have wracked my brain trying to figure this out. Tom was stumped too why 640X480 would go wide. I haven't see that before. Should be a 4:3. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Let me also clarify something. These clips I have been working with were not shot by me. I am producing a Documentary on the flood that ravaged our Colorado town in September. Since I just purchased 10.1, I haven't loaded up the video I took of the flood. It had been at the TV station, and I just retrieved it tonight. I am going to import it tonight to see how Final Cut handles it. Hundreds of folks have sent me vid and stills so I don't know what type of cameras most of the vid came from. Once I import my video, I'll know if this is a Final Cut issue or something to do with the clips that were sent to me. I am not a newby at editing, having worked with previous versions of Final Cut, Adobe Premier and a Video Server at TV stations. I should be able to figure why the clips from others are not being handled correctly by FC, but I haven't resolved that yet. Hoping other professionals had seen this and would know the answer. I will be up for hours working on this. Even if my video works fine, I still need to find an answer as to why the other clips are not playing back correctly.
All the best,
Greg

Video quality is too worst
