Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy HDV artifact problem

  • HDV artifact problem

    Posted by Bob Carpenter on July 1, 2009 at 7:52 pm

    Here is my dilemma. I’ve imported a few projects in HDV and completed the projects in HDV. I found out that I was getting an artifact problem on output. I’ve been told to copy the project and paste it into a new Pro Rez sequence. Now the exported project looks great, however when I go and encode it, currently using bitvice ( the 29.96 interlaced 16x 9 setting) I’m getting a jerky, stuttering appearance where the object in motion appears blurry.

    However, when I watch the output footage there is no jerky motion.

    Right now I”m attempting to encode the footage using compressor to see if that makes any difference.

    TIA,
    Bob Carpenter

    How are you viewing the footage? What kind of monitor?

    I’m viewing this both on a 30″ apple cinema display and on from a DVD Player.

    From the 30″ cinema display when I view the HD.mov footage everything appears fine. The one thing that I forgot to mention is that I am down converting the encoded footage to SD mpeg2 from bitvice.

    Thanks a million

    Okay, just got done viewing the footage in DVD studio pro and the encoded file looks fine. Its not until it creates a TS file that there is a problem.

    I’ve gone back and checked previous videos that I’ve created before I started to output everything in HD pro res and there is no such movement stuttering. It is only on the DVDs I’ve created in the last several weeks.

    Thanks a million

    I have solved the issue. I’m not exactly sure what is wrong, however I changed my settings to regular pro rez not HG and I am now using Compressor instead of Bitvice.

    Thanks a million
