  Quick Text Question

  Posted by Josh Cook on December 9, 2011 at 3:56 pm

  Didn’t know weather this should be in FCP or DVD Studio Pro, but I am creating a scene it! like trivia game that has hundreds of sequences that I am putting into a randomizing DVD.

  The fonts for the questions is really basic and looks great in FCP and looks great in the exported sequence. On the DVD preview they get pixilated.

  Is this just a DVD studio pro quirk of the preview screen or is the text going to come out like that once I burn the actual DVD?

  They are exported at 720X480, DVD/DVCPRO-NTSC codecs by the way.

  Thanks.

  Avoid DV.
  His pixelation destroy the text.
  Try exporting to DVCPro50 or better Prores.

  Burn the DVD and look at it on a TV monitor not your Computer monitor. Judge from that not your preview from DVD SP.
