  • Photos are blurry and have lines running through them

    Hi,

    I created a NTSC 720×480 timeline, edited and then then exported it… I then imported the exported movie into a new timeline 900×600, where I had some video that I worked there. Half of the video is photos and the photos have this really weird lines running through, jagged… The 720×480 exported video looks great on Quicktime, but the 900×600 video has the jagged and blurriness in almost every photo. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Zevie

    Sounds to me like you’re seeing artifact from the fact you’re enlarging the video… won’t have the problem if you put the stills in that larger sequence, instead of the export version of them which is very likely smaller than the original files, right?

    You’re squeezing them down in the SD settings, then enlarging that rendered sqeeeze.. probably all of the problem here.
