Bad TV Filter in FCS2
Has anyone had any trouble with the Bad TV filter in FCS2? I applied it to a clip, exported it out as a Quicktime and it was fine. The moment I tried to run it through compressor, the first 15seconds of the clip turned green, before coming good again for the remainder of the clip.
I’m pretty sure it was the Bad TV filter, as when I took it off and ran it through compressor again, everything was fine. I tried exporting it straight through compressor from Final Cut, putting the final Quicktime straight into DVDSP and they all resulted in the same greeny colour for the first 15seconds and fine for the rest.
Anyone know why this would be happening?

Try some of the TV effects in Nattress Big Box of Tricks, and all the other cool stuff in there. There are also some great TV effects in Riot Gear, a very cool compositing kit from Andrew Kramer. I’ve combined both to get some neat TV effects.
Have a wonderful day.

Maybe that’s why they call it the “Bad TV” filter? 🙂

GLINDA: “Are you a good TV Filter or a Bad TV filter?”
DOROTHY: “I’m not a TV Filter at all! TV Filters are ugly”
MUNCHKINS: “Tee-hee-hee!”
GLINDA: “You see, not all TV Filters are ugly, I use a TV filter that looks GOOD!
Only BAD TV Filters look ugly and crash Compressor.”DOROTHY: “Toto, I don;t think we’re in sync anymore!

Not following your workflow. Export your rendered clip as self-contained and run the self-contained clip through compressor. That should work. Should.
There are a bunch of FxPlug filters in FCP (they came from Motion 3) that either crash my FCP or come up with a “filter failed to render” warnign on a red screen. They won’t go through Compressor, either. But the same filter applied within Motion works fine.
Are you a good apple or a bad apple?
You killed my sister, the bad apple, by dropping your set of manuals on her so that must mean you’re a great bad apple.bogiesan

Yeah that’s what I did, export out of final cut as a self contained quicktime and put that through compressor, which turned out all nice and green.

I’ve got FCS2 (FCP 6.0.4) and the bad TV filter just isn’t there. a colleague has FCP 6.0.3 and he has it in the ‘stylize’ sub menu in ‘video filters’. Could anybody tell if there is any reason why the Bad TV filter isn’t available to me.
