Blurry Text

[Jeremy Garchow]

Give more info about your timeline. Is this an interlaced timeline perhaps?

[Dan Davis]

Sorry … it’s a 720p timeline.

[Aaron Rock]

Sorry does it look blurry on final output or just in playback in fcpx?

[T. Payton]

Can you post a screen shot? Also what is your playback preferences. Proxy? Optimized?

Hi T. Payton,

I am having blurry text problems and I see it was not resolved here so here is a screen shot of my problem. It has been rendered and paused before taking the shot. I also exported it at 1080 for a youtube video thinking after it was exported it would not be blurred but it is still blurry.

I am using the “watercolor – paper” background generator. I have tried using a different background (fabric) and I have tried redoing the text numerous times as well as using a different font but it is still coming out blurry. Any suggestions?

thanks!

[T. Payton]

Humm. Are you viewing that with Optimized or High Quality? Also can you upload a still frame (not a screen shot)?

Have you tried increasing the point size of your text? Does the problem still persist at a larger size? It might be that there aren’t enough pixels to carry the fine detail at the size you have chosen.

Thank you for your responses – I went out of town hence the delay. The blurry text has been fixed. I had to change formats (client request) and that seemed to fix it. Thanks! C
