Why does my clip have a higher quality in the viewer than the canvas?

When I am editing, I have noticed that sometimes my images and clips have a drastically higher quality in the viewer than the canvas/timeline, what is causing this, and how do I edit and export my films with the highest quality possible?

>Why does my clip have a higher quality in the viewer than the canvas?
The answer is very simple; the Viewer shows the media at its native resolution while the Canvas shows the media at the Sequence resolution.  I'd bet that in your case, the original media is of higher resolution that the Sequence in the Timeline.

  • Why does my Kernal_Task run so high when I first start up the computer

    Okay...I recently found out that my macbook pro 13in late 2011, main problem is my Kernal_Task......I notice it started happening this past Saturday. Everytime I put it to sleep, my CPU kernal_task runs high of 204-396% which is not normal. Then my fans kick on afterward.....it does the same thing when I properly shut down the computer and start it back up again, with nothing running or open. I did the Disk Utilty of Repair Disk Premissions, and still it is an on going issue with the kernal_task. And before all this happened, I never had a problem of putting my macbook to sleep at night, and wake it up the next day. Sometimes, I don't shutdown until 3 or 4 weeks at time....but now, since my kernal_task is acting up, I was told I now have to shut it down when I am not using it, like a PC machine. Can anyone here give me suggestions to sovle the kernal_task problem, of having it go back to normal use at 2-5% of CPU use, instead of 204-396% of CPU use....I am hitting a wall and want to find out if I have to reinstall OS X Lion or not...
    Thanks...

    The kernel is using excessive processor cycles. Below is a partial list of causes for this condition.
    Throttling
    When it gets high temperature readings from the hardware, or a low-voltage reading from the battery, the kernel may try to compensate by interrupting the processor(s) to slow them down and reduce power consumption. This condition can be due to
    a buildup of dust on the logic board
    high ambient temperature
    a worn-out or faulty battery in a portable
    the malfunction of a cooling fan or sensor
    Note that if the problem is caused by a sensor, there may be no actual overheating or undervoltage.
    If the computer is portable, test with and without the AC adapter connected. If kernel_task hogs the processor only on battery power, the fault is in the battery or the logic board.
    The Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics, though not very reliable, is sometimes able to detect a bad fan or sensor.
    Installed software
    User-installed software that includes a device driver or other kernel code may thrash the kernel. Some system-monitoring applications, such as "iStat," can also contribute to the problem. You can test for this possibility by completely disabling or removing the software according to the developer's instructions, or booting in safe mode. Note, however, that disabling a system modification without removing it or booting in safe mode may not be as easy as you think it is.
    Corrupt NVRAM or SMC data
    Sometimes the problem is cleared up by resetting the NVRAM or the SMC.
    Peripherals
    Connecting an external display to some MacBook Pro models via Thunderbolt may cause this issue. I don't know of a fix, other than to disconnect the display.
    Encryption
    Transferring large amounts of data to or from an encrypted disk image or FileVault volume may put an extra load on the kernel. If both the source and the destination are encrypted, the load may be doubled. If you transfer data from an encrypted disk image on an encrypted partition to another such image on another encrypted partition, the load may be quadrupled.
    This issue probably doesn't affect late-model Macs with an Intel i-series, recent Xeon, or later processor. Those processors support hardware-accelerated encryption. You can determine what kind of processor you have by selecting About This Mac from the Apple menu in the menu bar.

  • Why does my phone have to vibrate twice when I plug in the charger

    I have had an iphone 5 for about a year now and I am very disappointed with Apple and will be changing to a different phone as soon as I can. The fact that apple makes the phone vibrate twice when I plug in a third party charger is obsurd. The apple charger is much worse and breaks sooner than the thrid party charger, but since apple want to make money they are forcing a notification that says this charger may not work properly (actually works better than apples charger) and causes the double vibrate.
    They also failed in reconizing a computer, as I have to verify that I trust my home computer everytime I plug it in, also causing a double vibrate. It can't remeber that it has been plugged into this computer many times?
    Very disapointed in apples ability to live up to the high end cost of their devices and I will definetly be switching to a different device (which has also made me decide to not buy other apple products)
    It would be nice if they would address this problem as it affects every iphone and is a huge negative to ergonomics and functionality of the product.

  • Why does my iPod have bad sound quality?

    Hi!
    I have an iPod Touch 8gb.
    iOS 4.3.4
    Jailbroken...
    About 3 months ago, my headphone jack broke and was stuck in my iPod...
    I got it out a week ago..
    But the sound quality is really bad.
    Theres too much echo, not enough bass and too much distortion and gain...

    Based on other user's expereince, the headphone jack is damaged and requires replacement provided that the problem is only with headphones.

  • Why does my screen have a circle with contact name

    why does my screen have a circle with contact name

    it might be the recents feature showing up on the home screen, this can be switched off.Once you’ve completed the upgrade to iOS 8, head to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Scroll down until you see the Contacts section and tap on Show In App Switcher. Here you’ll see the options for displaying contacts in the app switcher screen: your iPhone favorites, your recent contacts, or both. Note that if you enable both favorites and recent contacts, your favorites will be displayed first, and you’ll have to scroll to the right to see your recent contacts.

  • Why does color not have a 1440x1080 Resolution preset?

    1. Why does color not have a 1440x1080 Resolution preset? Im using ProRes HQ in FCP and clips at 1440x1080. But when they come out of Color they are 1920x1080? I notice from color there is no 1440x1080 Res preset so strange?
    2. In addition ive also noticed that I dont have the choice of 'Original Codec' in the render codec settings. Only ProRes, ProRes HQ, Uncompressed 8bit and 10bit. SO i use the higher quality 10bit.
    Message was edited by: StingRay67

    Ok, I class myself as a patient person and not one to fly off the handle. However, Color is testing me to the limits. I cannot work out for the life of me how this application is trying to handle my footage.
    I sending 1440x1080 thats been encoded 1440x1080 50i. This footage is ending up in the Color pref settings or as 1920x1080!! Secondly when I send this back to FCP obviously my Sequence will have changed to match 1920x1080.. thus up scaling the whole project! Then if that weren't enough, taking a look at the data-rates in the clip settings of the Color Sequence they read in excess of 131.5 mb/s My HDD give up immediately! (Is one supposed to render the timeline first once this footage is back from color? - i dont just mean because of the transitions etc)
    Now.. to yet further confuse the issue I then do a Render ALL in FCP and the Color Sequence plays back fine though still with the wrong Resolution of 1920x1080?
    to be frank, i just dont know where to start with this.. it seems 1 step forward 3 steps back each time. I can appreciate Im new to this but I thought I knew enough not to encounter such petty problems as just setting Color up for import/export. Im going to say it... Is this a Color problem or what? I dont think there are many of you using PAL with HDV into ProRes HQ or ProRes so I guess its going to have to be a £200 call to Apple? .. Which I probably wont do..
    Here's hoping.

    Can anyone help me?  Why does my ipad kick me out of FB?  Sometimes to the 'settings' page and sometimes to the desk top?  I would like to know why this happens and what I can check or change to make it stop.   I have 50.8 GB of capacity available; it is version IOS 5.1.1; model MC497LL.  It is WIFI and internet via AT&T?   Can anyone give me some clues on what to do; or change in settings???  Thank you very much! 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it and how do i remove it

    why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it

    Here's what I had to do, no thanks to the others on here who go at it like Apple, delete and restore.
    No, you don't have to delete and restore. Just open a folder on  your computer, call it something like iPad music, keep it open, open iTunes, select all your music, copy and paste it in the folder you just created, delete all your music from iTunes (relax, you just copied it into that folder). Select all the music in that folder, drop it back onto your playlist. Now, I renamed my playlist, because it was called untitled, originally, so if that doesn't work, rename, or delete and recreate your playlist, copy the music back over, sync, and they will play.
    Worked for me, anyhow. Good luck!

  • Why does my keyboard have a gap in it?

    Why does my keyboard have a gap in it?

    If the keyboard is split and covering your text, Pull the two ends of the keyboard together - into the middle of the screen. You can also tap and hold down on the little keyboard icon in the lower right corner of the keyboard and select - Dock and Merge.
    If the keyboard is up on the middle of the screen, but not split, and you want to move it back to the bottom - tap and hold down on the little keyboard and icon and select - Dock
    You can turn the split keyboard off in Settings>General>Keyboard>Split Keyboard>Off.

  • Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

    I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
