  • Quicktime 7.4.5 HD Video Quality is Poor

    Hello, every since I updated to the latest QT version the video playback quality of my HD's movies has been poor. For example when I play a 480p trailer the video appears very jaggy around the outlines of text and objects. The QT preferences are set to High Quality.
    I tried completely reinstalling QT and still got the same results. Luckily I did still have the previous QT version so I installed that and now the playback quality is perfect once again. Guess I'll have to stick to this version until another update comes out.
    Any one else have this problem?

    I just tried using that option in the 7.4.1 version that i installed and doing so actually reduces video quality, don't think that would help in 7.4.5. Funny thing is when i do put it in safe mode the video quality looks exactly the same as in 7.4.5.
    It's almost as if the newest version is running in safe mode even though i have it set to directx, strange...

  • Macbook air 2013 video quality is poor?

    I just purchased this laptop and the video quality seems, overall, dull. I was expecting an exremely smooth resolution, but when I play videos form youtube on full screen, the image is not defined and clear. I have run the available updates and I have changed quality details on the actual youtube video, but nothing changes.

    can you post a screen shot.
    Also.....as stated....process of elimination ...
    watch a ITUNES movie PREVIEW of a recent high definition movie as a test.

  • Music Video quality is poor - Apple TV

    Does anyone know why the music videos purchased in the iTunes store are not HD or a higher resolution than what they are? I have an Apple TV in my home theater room with a 106 inch screen and the videos look like I am playing a VHS tape. I don't understand how I can watch HD movies and TV shows on my ATV but Music Videos look like crap! I have about 74 music videos too!

    Newer music videos are all shot in HD.  This is apparent when you go to youtube/vevo and watch the music vids in 720/1080p.
    You can of course, use any number of Firefox addons to download the HD music videos off youtube/vevo and then use a pass-thru/remuxer like iVi (available on app store) or Remux to rewrite the headers of the videos to make them idevice/ATV compatible without recompression.
    BTW 1080p converted youtube vids look GORGEOUS on the new ATV/ipad3!
    That annoys me so much.
    When I didn't have the means, I could still watch music videos in HD for freebs per your description. Now I'm able to buy them (and I want to), but as far as I can see the legit source is rubbish.
    Am I missing something or is this one of those ineffable Apple things that I have to come to terms with if I'm going to join the herd?

  • FCE finished project on iDVD photo & video quality now poor

    Using FCE 2.0.3 iDVD 5.0.1 have done many movies/slide shows with great results. Newest movie, noticeably reduced quality of finished project, pixelated appearance, although I am using same cameras on the same settings! Recently clean install to v 10.0.8
    Used mcjanitor, disk utility regularly and have no performance issues currently. Am puzzled why the quality issues?
    well over half hard drive available. 812 mb ram inactive.
    PowerMac g5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   1.5 gb ram 160 GB hard drive

    The only thing absolutely different is that I've done a clean install of Tiger after experiencing a Tiger/Quicktime clash. Reinstalled FCE, Photoshop 2.0, iDVD and Comic Life. Those are basically the only programs I run on this machine.
    I haven't changed the photo process, they are high quality jpeg edited in Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 then imported to FCE, as I've done before. Photo is 2.0 mb 1704 X 2272 shot on 4mp canon digital camera
    iDVD setting best quality. But I've made a disc with both settings.
    Tried 2 different types of discs Memorex and Verbatim which my other--good quality videos have been made from the same stack of discs.
    Quick time version 7.1.3. I didn't know you need to set the preferences in there for a movie exported from FCE and burned to iDVD. I'll try that and burn another one.

  • Ichat rarely connects, when it does, video quality is poor for one side

    Hi,
    I'm using Ichat v4.0.8.
    When trying to enter a video chat, it rarely connects just says no information has been sent for 10 seconds etc etc.
    If you persist and keep trying over and over it will eventually connect. The person on the other side can see me and hear me fine, but they are extremely blurred and the sound is very skippy.
    We have both changed to port 443 and changed our bandwidth limit to 500kbps and still no joy.
    Any help would be much apriciated!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    In System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming tab are you set at 1.5Mbps ?
    IS your Buddy if also on Leopard/iChat 4.x (or below) ?
    If you or your Buddy has to change this setting iChat will need to be restarted to "See" the New Speed.
    System Preferences > Quicktime caps all Video Streaming at the Automatic Setting in iChat 2, 3 and 4 (Panther/Tiger/Leopard).
    In iChat 4 it is read as 384k In earlier version as a Zero hence the need to change it.
    In iChat 3 and 4 you are trying to set your system to get iChat to see as much of your Internet Connection as is possible.
    In Snow Leopard iChat 5 "Sees" the whole speed of the Internet Connection so advice then is to tone it down to "match" your Buddies speed.
    Having said that there are ISPs where capping it again in the Bandwidth in iChat also helps on iChat 3 and 4.
    Start with the Quicktime Setting then try different Bandwidth Speeds.

  • HT1933 when i play my purchased movies in HD there the audio and video quality is poor

    I have purchased movies in HD but when i try to play them the audio skips and there is skipping in the video as well. However i also have a few movies in Sd and they do not have these problems. However even though the computer im using is not a MAC is an extremely nice Asus with a 4th gen I5 and supports HD video playback. Anyone know what to do  I tried to get help from apple and they scheduled me a phone call two weeks from now? some help right?!

    Can anybody suggest me how can I improve the quality of audio and video in JMF Player ? Below here I am providing the source code of the JMF Player I am using:My suggestion would be to use a supported OS with your JMF. JMF doesn't support "Ubuntu 8.04 and MAC OS 10.5", it only supports Redhat and Solaris (and Windows 9X or NT 4.0)

  • Video quality

    I just got the Apple composite cables so that I could watch National Treasure on my TV. At first it would play until I changed the video out settings to NTSC. Everything is working well, but the video quality is poor. I'm playing the movie on a Sony HD (1080p) 65" projection TV. I didn't expect for the quality to be as good as playing something from the PS3, but the quality is probably worse than a VHS tape.

    I think this is because the high quality or HD movie downloads are not available yet.
    The movies right now look fine played on a computer or iPod but anything else will look bad.

  • Low video quality when uploaded to youtube

    I edited a YouTube webseries for some friends of mine using iMovie 11. It was filmed using a Sony Handycam DCR TRV33. This is not a high definition camera, it is standard definition, but the video quality still looked pretty good when I was editing it on iMovie. I exported it to Quicktime, then uploaded it to YouTube from my desktop (I had read that this was better than uploading it directly from iMovie). In Quicktime it looked fine, but then once it was on YouTube the video quality was significantly worse. Does anyone have any tips on how I can improve this? Here is a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1KPhrnisMQ
    Thank you for your help.

    I don't see that. To me, it looks the same quality as any YouTube video.
    How do most YouTube videos look to you?

  • N900 poor photo/video quality

    All photos and videos are very poor quality, somehow blurred, like always to be out of focus.
    I tried in different light situations, different modes,..., but no improvement.
    Maybe I expect too much, but the N900's photo engine is complimented a lot.
    Here is a photo of better quality shooten with my n900:
    http://picasaweb.google.com/saso.celarc/N900Photo?feat=directlink#5430450751711864050
    Often they are much worse, without details.
    Is this normal?
    Regards,
    Sašo

    couple of things:
    1.  when you are taking a picture, do a soft touch on the button until you see the little square corners turn green then, without lifting your finger, press completely down again.
    2.  make sure there are not any finger prints or other filmy/greasy debrit on the lense.  just because there is a cover, your fingers and other items in your pocket/etc. can still touch it.
    my camera takes great pictures in both the 3 and 5mp.  one is just widescreen and the other is square.

  • IMovie - Poor Video Quality when exporting to "Projects"

    Hi - I'm using iMovie 11' and once I move my video (HD) from "Events" to "Projects" my video quality becomes very poor and the video is cropped. I have changed my setting to have it "fit frame" but the problem still exists. Thoughts?

    @Harm,
    "Pear-shaped" (or sometimes "fruit-shaped") is a euphemism meaning that the effort has gone awry; it was a mess.
    @John,
    Export to DVD is a PPro 2.0 function; in CS3 it is now Export to Encore. Is that what you meant?
    First thing is to check the field orders of your source material and of your export settings. Don't invert them, and don't deinterlace interlaced footage.
    Perhaps a short list of the settings you have tried (and why you chose those settings) would help us help you.

  • Matched presets-but poor video quality and audio-PE9

    I have posted a few threads like this before, but the problem has not been resolved. I have matched my 1920x1080 24p (Panasonic HDC-TM900) footage to the correct presets when I start a new project. When I play the clips in the timeline the quality is variable and often poor, but when I pause the video the still frame normally has high quality. Audio also sometimes cuts out. I have the MPEG2 codec installed so I really do not know what the problem is. Any help would be appreciated

    Which project settings did you select, L3?
    And which format did you shoot your video in? That cam shoots in several modes.
    If you selected the correct project settings, there should not be a red line above your clips on your timeline? Is this the case in your situation?
    If you are seeing a red line, then your video needs to be rendered. (Press Enter. When the rendering is done, the red line will be green and your video will play much more smoothly.)
    However, if your project settings match your video specs, there will not be  a red line above the clips until you add effects or transitions to them.
    If you are shooting in 24p, that could be your problem. As you've seen, there is no project setting for 1920x1080 24p. Or for 50p or 60p, for that matter.
    You must shoot your video in 50i (PAL) or 60i (NTSC) in order to successfully edit this video in Premiere Elements 9.

  • How to improve poor video quality in iMovie?

    I have a movie in iTunes (version 10.6.3).  When I play the video, the quality is good on my Mac, on my iPad 3 and on my Apple TV.  The Apple TV is hooked to a 42-inch LCD TV.
    Next, I open the video file (MP4) using QuickTime Player.  I use the Edit and Trim commands to create a 1-minute segment from the video.  I save the segment from Quick Time Player.  The saved segment is a MOV file.  I drag and drop the MOV file back into iTunes.  When I play it from iTunes, the quality still is good on all my Apple devices - no noticeable difference from the original.
    Now, I import the MOV segment into iMovie 11 (version 9.0.8).  At import, I tick the Optimize Video check box and I select the Full - Original Size setting. Once imported, I select Share > Publish To iTunes.  I do not make any changes to the video clip in iMovie.  I publish to iTunes using all five size settings: Mobile, Medium, Large, HD 720p and HD 1080p.  Once in iTunes, I play the video again.  Now the quality is poor, lots of pixelation in all five size settings.
    iMovie appears to be doing something to the video to degrade its quality.  Maybe I have a setting wrong somewhere.  Anyone have any suggestions on how to prevent the degradation in video quality?  Thx

    Hey Brad, the MP4 movie in iTunes is 806 MB.  The segment I trimmed in QuickTime Player and saved as an MOV file is 18 MB.
    When I export the MOV segment from QuickTime Player to my desktop, the export format options that appear are: Movie; 480p; 720p; and iPad, iPhone 4 & Apple TV.  Which do you recommend?
    When I do Share > Export Using Quicktime in iMovie, there are a bunch of Export and Use options.  Which do you recomend?
    Thx

  • 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!

  • Poor Video Quality on DVD Created by Encore

    I am using Premiere Pro CS6 to edit video shot in 1280 x 720. I've linked the sequences from Premiere to Encore and created the DVD in Encore. I did not run the sequences through Media Encoder first but, rather, let Encore handle the transcoding and compression.
    The video when viewed in Premier looks great. The video when previewed in Encore looks great. But the quality of the video when burned to a DVD is lousy. I believe that the video on the DVD is only standard definition, but still the text is blurry and the images are fussy and jagged, more than I expected. Is there something else I should be doing in Premiere or Encore to ensure a higher quality DVD?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Well, I thought I followed the advice I was given pretty closely but I am still having a problem. I volunteered to shoot video for a Special Olympics and was hoping to have already delivered the final video, so any help you might yet be able to offer would be appreciated.
    For testing purposes I exported just 3 Sequences from Premiere into Media Encoder (total video length was less than 50 minutes) , transcoded them, and them brought them into an Encore project, but the resulting DVD is still of very poor quality. The video is noticeably blurry and a bit jumpy, and the text is also blurry.
    I am viewing the DVD on a 42 inch LED TV.  If I view the Media Encoded .m2v files directly from the computer (i.e., not using the DVD) on a large LED monitor they look pretty sharp.  This leads me to suspect the somehow I am not using Encore correctly.
    I will ultimately split the video in two, using 2 DVDs for different segments, so that the total across the 2 DVD is the original 100 minutes.
    Here are my specs:
    Original Assets
    The original video was shot in 1280 x 720p.
    My sequence timelines in Premiere were also 1280 x 720p
    All lower thirds text was created in Photoshop at 1280 x 720
    Media Encoder
    All the video was exported directly from Premiere
    Format: MPEG-2 DVD
    Codec MainConcept MPEG Video
    Quality (as automatically set by the slider) defaulted at 4.0
    TV Standard: NTSC
    Frame width/height: 720 x 480
    Field Order: None  (Progressive)
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: Widescreen 16:9
    Render at Maximum Depth: NOT CHECKED  (I forgot)
    Bitrate: VBR 2 Pass
    Minimum: 4
    Target: 6
    Maximum: 8
    GOP M Frames: 3 (default, I assume since I did not change it)
    GOP N Frames: 12 (again, default, I assume)
    Encore (all default settings as far as I know)
    Only 2.1GB of a 4.7GB DVD was used
    I burned directly to a DVD disk
    Project Settings:
    Authoring Mode: DVD
    Television standard: NTSC
    Codec: MPEG-2
    Dimensions: 720x480
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Fields: Lower First
    Maximum Bitrate: 8.0 Mbps
    Any additional help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
