  • final movie is jumpy in DVD player AND in computer

    Hi,
    I have a very weird problem here… I ‘ve posted this before but now it has gotten worse, and I can’t find the reason for it.

    I have a 1 minute movie I edited in PPRO CS4. When I export it ot ENcore and burn it, the final movie is jumpy every few seconds.
    I tried to export it to avi file, using the media encoder and it is jumpy even when I watch it in the computer, using wmp.
    the project is lower field. the files I edit are also lower field. (I checked it using Iterpret footage).
    The files where captured using PPRO, from my sony mini dv camera.
    It happens also when I burn it to an image file in Encore and watch it with my pc (tired of burning and throwing away good verbatim dvd’s…).
    I’ve tried changing the CBR-VBR settings in Encore but it seems to go back to default again whenever I open the ‘quality presets’ to check. I found some info about that in Google but no solution. I’ve posted a thread about that in ENcore forum.
    Any ideas?

    I’ve had this problem before too. It happened twice for two different reasons. The first one was when I was having dropped frames because of a a fragmented hard drive, and a need to clear my RAM before I rendered it. I solved this by getting in the habit of defraging my hard drive on a routine basis and simply restarting my computer to clear the RAM (I know there are other ways to do this but when you’re frustrated, it works best for me). The second issue was when I imported it directly to Encore from Premier. I got in the habit of using a third party encoder like Sorenson Squeeze. Premier Pro CS4 also has a powerful Media Encoder that while I haven’t played with much, I hear it has a lot of spunk to do the same thing (Thanks for the tip Dennis). Apple also has Quicktime Pro that you can upgrade for a small fee that does a decent job too if you don’t want to spend much time with the settings.

    Try giving these tips a try and see if they help you out. As far as I know, this was the root cause for my issues…and it might work for you too.

    It sounds like the results of a mismatched frame rate. Be sure the frame rates of the original footage, sequence timeline and exports match.

    It seems that an transition effect I used, of Canopus Videofx Transitions made all the mess.
    I tried to replace this effect with another effect of Videofx, still jumpy.
    Only after have I replaced it with an other effect, or deleted it, the problem was solved.
    Hope it will help someone!
