    This is weird. If I view graphics (pict files that square pixel 720×534) in the viewer, they are sharp on my video monitor off the Io LA. If I view the same graphic in the timeline or viewer, it gets fuzzy and looks like some sort of weird field issue. I have the Field Dominance set to none on all the graphics.

    Does not help going from 10bit uncompressed all the way down to DV25, all exhibit the same thing. Do I need to bring in all the graphics into After Effects and re-save them with field order?

    Render the graphic in your timeline, & also, make sure your graphic is on a whole number in the motion tab (such 121,145, not 121,4, 145.98)

    I must have had some funkyness going on. Deleted POA cache and preferences and all seems fine now. I also re-did the graphics so they were a 601 square pix size of 720×540.

    These were powerpoint slides, which always seem the biggest pain in the rear to export/import cleanly. I would love to know what others do for this. I usually just run the show and do screen captures @ 1024×768 and re-image in Photoshop.

    Ugg! Powerpoint. Playing them out to tape is a really good way to do it. We usually run a scan converter and record on to beta and make stills from there.

    Yes I will usually do that on site, but just to have a reference tape so I know when they changed slides.

    I sure wish Microsoft would fix the slide export function. It does not even work good on Windows either. I’ve found screen captures work the best.
