  Export Settings

  Posted by Todd In arizona on October 5, 2007 at 6:03 pm

  Hello everybody.

  I edited a bit of football video shot on my HVX200 (720/24P), exported it to a Quicktime movie. Later I decided to load that QT mov into After Effects 7 and do some time remapping. When I finished I attempted to export as a QT movie. In the settings menu I changed the default compression from H.264 to DVCPRO HD 720p60. But when I hit okay and returned to the main movie settings menu it listed the quality as “Medium”.

  I fiddled a bunch trying to set the quality to Best or High or something other than medium but couldn’t figure a way to do it. I thought it might not matter until I started comparing the FCP export with the footage that was exported out of AE 7. The AE 7 footage had the jaggies and the resolution was noticably worse.

  And to top it off the final AE 7 footage had this “jerkiness” during camera pans that simply wasn’t there in the FCP exported footage.

  Does it have something to do with my export settings or maybe something more obvious that I’m missing? Can I set the export quality to high using DVCPRO HD compression? Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.

  Todd
