  • FInal Cut Exporting Problem: Movement Bars

    Posted by Ryan Maloney on July 15, 2011 at 7:25 pm

    So in Final Cut Pro the video looks great and ready to export. It’s smooth and great quality (I shoot on an XHA1) but when I export, there are bars that form when there is quick movement. I’ve exported using H.264 but not only is the movie over 2GB (only 5 min long) but there are these bars that look like movement blur. Here’s a quick video that if you pause during movement, you can see these bars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qw3b307Ryk
    It just ruins the smooth flow of HD

    Thanks,
    Ryan

    What is the final destination for this video? YouTube?

    De-interlace HD video destined for the web (upper/odd field first). Leave video interlaced for TV.

    Did you export to h.264 right out of FCP? I would export a “current settings” reference movie (command-E, uncheck “make self-contained”). Then bring it into Compressor. I can’t say off the top of my head what Compressor setting is right for your specific video, but I think it’s the way to go for highest quality.

    The video looks great otherwise though! Some beautiful shots and scenery and the slow-mo at ~2:15 is pretty sick.

    In other words, apply the de-interlace filter. Then do everything else that you did to get it on YouTube just the same.
