  Color Text Problems in Motion 2.0.1

  Posted by Paulfmaul on November 8, 2005 at 8:17 pm

  So, this really weird thing is happening to me, and I figure I must be missing something very simple. When I make text red in Motion (for a DVD menu) it displays very smooth in the app and during a RAM preview. however when i export it using compressor to mpg-2 the red text comes out very jagged and pixelated, nothing like it look in motion 2. the weird thing is, if the only change i make is to make it white again, and export it the same way, it come out perfectly smooth. anyone have an idea what is causing this?

  Is it broadcast safe? Make sure the RGB values are within 16-235, or drop a Broadcast Safe video filter on it..

  Thanks for the quick reply Jim. I was really ready for the broadcast-safe filter to solve the problem, but i just did it and rendered again, and the same problem is still there. any other suggestions?
