  Low image quality in timeline

  Posted by Steve Clark on April 5, 2010 at 4:00 pm

  When I drag a perfectly sharp scene from one timeline to another, the image quality diminishes dramatically even after rendering. This doesn’t happen when dragging to the 2nd timeline where the clip is color corrected and modified, but usually the third where I put the best takes. Any suggestions?
  Thanks,
  Steve

  Sounds like your sequence settings don’t match from sequence to sequence… they need to be the same.

  Or I’d just create bins for your selects instead of sequences.

  Typically when starting a new project the sequence settings in the existing Seq. 1 that is already open in the browser will not wind up with the sequence settings that you establish using an Easy Setup. All new seqs. that you open will, so it’s very possible that you have wrong settings in just one of your seqs.
