Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy G Nicer filter

  • Posted by Harry Kafka on August 18, 2009 at 7:36 pm

    Hi,
    In applying G Nicer filter to DV footage, I’m adding it to already existing FCP Color Correct filter, FCP Sharpen filter, and Color Crush filter from Noise Industries. When I render I’m getting a strange green overlay on the left third of the frame.
    Is there a problem in applying G Nicer with that many other filters?
    What order should the G Nicer be put in.
    I’ve tried first and last and I’m still getting same weird green overlay.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Apply the G filter first.

    Have a wonderful day.

    When you get these error try as Chris states to shift effect order (sometimes this can give you a different result but it can remove bugs). The other option is to shift the rendering pression to 8-bit instead of 10-bit or higher.

    This kind of filters are designed to try to rebuild the original Chroma. They works better in the raw footage, but they WILL WORK ONLY IF you set your sequence to a 422 or 444 codec. Keeping in DV makes no effect.
    If you have available Nattress “Chroma Smooth/Sharp”, use it instead of Nicer.
    The Green line was very common some time ago in many free FC plugins.
    Cheers,
    Rafael

    Thanks for the help.
    Graeme emailed me and suggested I use Chroma Sharpen
    instead of G Nicer. Less buggy.
