I made an i-movie of my home videos, edited and added chapters, and then shared the i-movie to i-dvd, added a theme, then burned to a dvd. This is the process I always use. My movie is clear in imovie and idvd, but blurry on the dvd on my tv. Even the words "play movie" and "scene selection" are blurry. I made a movie the day before and it was fine, and I have done this many other times with no problem. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be?
Info: I have a desktop mac os x version 10.6.8, with i-life '11. Thanks, I hope someone can help!
Sounds like a problem between your external DVD player & your TV.  Start w/the basic & easiest.  Use a drive cleaner on your external DVD player.

  • Why is the video blurry on the iPad2?

    When I watch a video on the iPad2 , using the ABC Player App, uTube app, TV.com app, Netflix  app or just using websites on sky fire, the video will start out crystal clear but will become so blurry that I can't continue to watch, it will occasionally become clear and then becomes blurry again.  The only time that video remained crystal clear was when I bought a TV show on iTunes.  I have updated to 4.3.3 , I have tried a reset by pushing the home button & the on/off buttons .  Has anyone else had this problem?  What can I do to fix this?  I love my new iPad2 and it has been great except for this.  I know that there is no flash, but I am using the apps and the video is still blurry, any help will be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks, Michelle

    All the situations I which you describe "blurry" video, the video is being streamed. When you were watching the purchased video, it was resident on your iPad. That would indicate that the problem is probably a slow internet connection. If the Internet connection isn't fast enough,mthe picture quality of the streamed video will degrade.

  • I am recording from my computer screen with an elgato game capture card.  Why is the video blurry when I import it to Premiere elements?

    I am recording my computer screen with an elgato game capture card.  When I play the unedited footage on my own computer, it is clear and crisp.  When I import the footage into premiere elements, it becomes blurry.  It becomes even blurrier when I save the edited video.  How do I keep the video clear?  How do I fix it?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Please check out John T. Smith's information.
    At this point, if you could tell us the file extension of the file involved, that would give us a start while you are
    gathering the rest of the details.
    You can easily get some information for us from Properties for your imported video that is blurry in the Editor.
    1. Click on Expert to get into the Expert workspace of Premiere Elements 13
    2. If you have not already, import your file into the program using Add Media/Files & Folder/Project Assets.
    3. Open Project Assets to see a thumbnail for the video that you just imported. Right click that thumbnail,
    and select and click on Properties from the menu that opens.
    4. Tell us what is listed there is Properties - it should look something like this one which is specific for one of my wmv files.
    Your information will be specific to the file that you right clicked in your Project Assets.
    From what you have written so far, yours should show
    Image Size 1920 x 1080
    Frame Rate either 59.94 or 60
    Also, please go to Edit Menu/Project Settings/General, and tell us what you see for
    Editing Mode
    Timebase
    Frame Size
    Pixel Aspect Ratio
    even if the fields look grayed out.
    Your project settings may be contributing your Edit area previewing problems.
    All of the above will keep us moving forward in the troubleshooting.
    Thanks.

  • Why is the video I took with my iphone5c clear but when I email it it is blurry

  • Why are all videos taken on my Cannon Rebel EOS T31 all of a sudden blurry?

    I have a Cannon Rebel EOS T3i. I have had it for about 3 months. Everything was okay, but for the last month all the video I have tried to take come out blurry. It wasn't that way before. Does anyone have an idea of what I might have done, or why all the videos are blurry?  Thanks for any help you can give.

    Iriscat,
    Autofocus on DSLR's for film has been mostly a pipe dream until recently. The feature is there and it can work in some instances where very little movement is occurring but basically, the technologies of autofocus and DSLR video, for whatever reason, are newer in development than your camera (and mine) This simply means that you need to learn to manual focus. This is not too bad for a film maker, because he/she wants to get a great and very specific focus generally (in one situation - near, in another - far.) But if you're filming your granddaughter's birthday party or a football game, you're going to find it quite challenging. The technology is not really for that. Honestly, your salesperson should have informed you of this. Better autofocus is gotten out of camcorders. They bring everything into focus instead, and the depth of field is what a filmmaker would consider boring.
    I hope this helps. You can get your $$ out of a DSLR on ebay if you desire to move on.

  • When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but no hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro

    When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
    If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.

    This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
    Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume)  or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call.

  • HT202020 Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone 4 not supported by Aperture.

    Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone not supported by Aperture?  That's weird.  I expect that since both iPhone and Aperture are Apple products, file support should be seamless between the two. 
    Also, iPhone 4 does not appear as Camera Model in the metadata of the unsupported video file in Aperture .  But other videos I have taken with the same iPhone 4 appear in Aperture and the Camera Model appears correctly.  Why is that?

    Have you done some cleaning and cleared caches on your Mac? Maybe the  com.apple.xpchelper.cache file is missing. Check the folder /System/Library/Caches/
    Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19304702#19304702
    If this file should be missing, you need to restore it from a backup or reinstall it by reinstalling your system.

  • Why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel?

    I posted my problem earlier today, but re-reading it maybe I didn't explain myself well enough.
    My main question is: "why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel ?".  This is occuring after I have selected my media from the Tasks Panel and placed them in correct order in the Timeline/Sceneline.  I knew something was wrong when I could see that the clips were not indicating their right length when viewed in the (expanded) timeline.  They were compressed into just a few seconds, whereas the clips should have been at least 5 minutes.  I ran the clips in the monitor and sure enough they ran too fast, with a lot of jerking movements.
    The 3 video clips I am trying to make into a HD PAL video were taken with my Nokia N8 mobile video camera. These are in mp4 format. Can this present a problem ?  Note that when I play these individual HD clips on my computer in (Windows Media Player) they run fine.
    After I placed the clips in my Project Panel (or before in the Organize Workspace), I have perforned no change or manipulation of the clips.  They are in their original state.
    Just too confirm that the clips did seem to be compressed, I burnt a DVD, the resultant video ran in a matter of seconds.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, that is what the problem was.
    Although the video camera on my Nokia N8, mobile was capturing at 25fps,
    for some reason once transfered over to PrE9 (via file transfer), the clip was interpreted as 500fps.  Once in Interpret Footage I was able to change the fps to 25.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Why can't I sign in FaceTime and imesseges

    Hi , I want to ask why can't I sign in FaceTime and imesseges in my new ipad using my apple ID they are telling me that the email or password are wrong but I am sure that they are the right ones because I am been using this apple ID downloading things

    Maximum number of three icloud accounts had been created on that particular device. There is no limit to Apple id creation - that is why no problem with imessage or facetime.

  • Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?

    Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?
    I made a TON of edits in a video group, then duplicated that group into another file... and all my edits are gone.
    I spent hours working on this, so please let me know what the hell happened and how I can make sure it never happens again...
    also--why would CS6 come with such a devastating feature?!?! Who came up with this???

    Welcome to the forum.
    I did not see any reference to Save, Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy. Did you use one of those?
    Good luck,

  • Why are my videos not playing the right way up

    Why are my videos not playing the right way up

    I took four video clips while on a trip this week.  Two are oriented the right way (playing wide on the device and imported correctly).  The other two are Tall and not oriented right.  Orientation is 90 degrees to the right.  I don't know why this is happening on occasions.  Even some pictures I took did the same **** thing.  It's weird.  And I can't figure it out.  The camera is held the way I want the pictures and videos to be recorded and played but something internal is turning these videos and pictures 90 degrees clockwise.

  • Why is the Video clip jumpy?

    Why is the Video clip jumpy? I have just installed Premiere Elements 12 in a brand new computer:
    Acer Aspire V5
    CPU AMD Dual Core Processor a-4 APU with Radeon (TM HD Graphics 1.0 GHz)
    4GB DDR3 memory
    500 GB HDD
    Windows 8.1
    The file types are AVI, AVCHD, and MOV files

    northgal
    Lots of ways to go on this. But, I think starting with a definition of the source media and how you are setting up the project is going to be the path to success. So, we need to zero in on questions/answers related to what I wrote earlier
    The properties of the source media need expanding up beyond "file types are AVI, AVCHD, and MOV.
    a. What are the video and audio compression of the files with the .avi file extension and what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    b. What is the file extension for the file with the AVCHD video compression. Again, what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    c. What are the video and audio compression of the files with the .mov file extension and what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    You asked how to go about that. The best way is to run each of the file types through a video properties read out program such as MediaInfo
    http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
    Latest versions of that MediaInfo have been problematic in that you need to be on guard for any unwanted toolbars and installed "extra" programs (bloatware).
    OR
    We would not necessarily get more information, but we would get enough to put us in a good position, if we run the types through gspot utility (good for codec and basic information)...less bloatware concerns
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    The dialog that you would get from gspot would look like
    Once we know the video and audio codecs, frame size, frames rates, interlaced or progressive frame rates, etc. that we are dealing with, we on a good course to set up the project settings to match those properties, independant of whatever export choices we have in mind. That we will address later after a successful import and edit.
    OR
    A third choice for getting at this information is less productive but can be a good last resort...knowing the brand/model/recording settings of the camera from which these files came.
    Please review and then let us know if you can gather the file properties information details requested.
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thank you.
