  • Exporting from Motion DV PAL looks pixelated…

    Posted by B-monkey on December 2, 2005 at 11:45 am

    Hi,

    Hope somebody please help with the next problem: i exported a project from Motion, using DV PAL settings, square pix. But the quicktime movie in which it resulted, looked, wel…. bad! All blurry and pixelated.
    What’s the best way/highest quality to export from Motion for DV PAL? And what settings do i have to change or use?

    Can somebody please help?

    Thanx a lot.

    2 things:
    1) PAL does not use square pixels.
    2) Are you viewing this on your PAL video monitor? Or in the FCP canvas? You should be using a PAL monitor, or you will never be able to see what’s going on. Consult the FCP manual to see how to hook a monitor up to your system.
