Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy QT Color Faded

  • Posted by James Whittington on February 11, 2011 at 9:00 pm

    Hi there,

    I’m trying to export a QT (h.264) of a video to go on the internet. There are some title cards at the end which are very dark gray…almost black. When I export the video, those cards are very washed out.

    Can’t seem to figure out how to export a video with more accurate color representation. This is only going on the web…no TV.

    Any help?

    Thanks!

    If you’re using Compressor, open the Filters tab in the Inspector and add a Gamma correction. Test 110 to 115 on the scale.

    Thanks for the tip! I actually had to up it to 120 but it did the trick.
