  • Problem: Flickering of animation and stills

    Posted by Flumsie on December 29, 2005 at 6:42 pm

    Dear all,

    after exporting from After Effects, I have ‘flickering’ of the screen. Especially in animations where I photos move from one side of the screen to the other. After editing in Adobe Encore, I also observe flickering of the stills/menus.

    Anybody advice?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best, Erik

    I’ve faced many different kinds of “flickering” over the years.

    You may need to render “lower field first”, if that doesn’t work try “upper field first.”

    In the After Effects window containing your footage, right click on your clips and interperate footage (upper or lower) before rendering.

    Try render with a different codec.

    Make sure your quality switches on each layer aren’t set to “draft.”

    Fine lines will flicker unless you use the Field Blur filter.
