  Horizontal lines during motion for imported image files

  Posted by Edmund on July 21, 2005 at 5:43 am

  Hello,

  I am using Boris Red to composite a bunch of images for a video. The images come in from the left. During the motion of the image coming in there is a distortion (interlace like horizontal line effect) that ends when movement ends.

  I am using Red with Avid Xpress Pro ver 4.6. I am outputting to quicktime (full movie, not reference).I have tried full avi export and Targa. All have same problem.

  What’s odd is that I don’t get these problems when I preview to Ram, only when I export.

  I get the same problems using Boris outside of Avid.

  I have tried Gaussian blurs, deflicker, render field as frames. All the usual suspects, but I can’t figure out a solution.

  Any ideas??

  Thanks!

  Ed

  What are your import settings? Importing something incorrectly could cause issues as well. just a guess.

  I’ve had what you described happen to me when importing a Quicktime back into Avid at the wrong aspect (square vs. non-square).

  I am using boris red as an AVX effect in Avid. Within red, I am importing PNG images and have tried all of the image aspects and fit to project.

  ALso, when looking at my question, I am sure many are saying that this s interlacing on a computer monitor. But I am seeing these lines on a tv from a burned dvd.

  Thanks for the help!
