  • Final Cut Express Trouble with DVD

    Posted by Sandra Ciccone on July 3, 2008 at 8:14 pm

    Hi,

    I am used to using FCP and Compressor when exporting my sequences for DVD playback. However, I recently completed a project on Final Cut Express and exported to a Quicktime File, then created my DVD in iDVD and when I play it back on either tv or a computer, the image becomes blurred whenever there is a motion shot/camera pans/subject moves on screen, etc.

    Watching the Quicktime file on my computer, the quality looks great and this does not happen. But, once I burn the DVD, I get this distortion.

    Is this an iDVD issue, a quicktime issue, or something else??

    If you can please give me suggestions on what exporting settings I should use to go from FCE to a DVD at the best quality, I would be very grateful.

    Thanks so much,
    Sandra

    Increase the quality of the MPEG encode… look at iDVDs preferences
