  • If I render for SD DVD player at 720×480 what PAR do I need to use in AE before rendering in Media Encoder? Also if comps are nested in AE, do I have to change to PAR in all the nested comps or will creating a new “master” comp with those dimensions and a new PAR make everything conform?

  • I rendered using Media Encoder and I still have jagged edges. All the text was created in AE using the text tool. The fonts are not jagged or bitmapped in the comp window only on render. I think it is the DVD player being SD not HD that is the culprit. I’m trying to decide whether to get a laptop and playback the video on it – it looks good on the computer screen OR get an HD DVD player for playback on the TV. It’s a company project so funds are a concern. Likewise, since it is a public display, even with stuff bolted down, theft of equipment is a concern. Suggestions?

    Did you mean keep the 1280×720 dimensions on your previous post? Another suggestion is to use a standard definition DVD player and reduce the size of the comp to 720×480.

  • Yes, it is NTSC output and I created all the text in AE using the text tool. The vector graphics were created in Illustrator.

    I was rendering progressive so I’ll try rendering with lower fields first as you suggested.

    In terms of playing back on a TV with a DVD player, is it easy to loop the video playback with a DVD player? One user suggested I should just use a laptop and keep the current format (1280×720) – the video looks fine on the computer screen – and loop the video using Windows Media Player or Quick Time player since looping is a playback option. What do you think is the best quality option and cost efficient option? Thanks!

    Okay, so it sounds like the laptop is the path of least resistance if I can reduce the file so real-time playback is feasible. Thanks everyone, for all your advise and support!

    I have a Blu ray player. To burn a Blu ray disc do you need a hardware burner and a software app or can you burn with just an app? Also do I need special type of Blu ray media/blank discs?

    I had no idea! What are my options? So is there a HD DVD player? I already tried a laptop but the video wasn’t playing back in real-time.

    What’s the issue with playback of a video using a DVD player? The plan was to use a DVD player and continuously loop the video that is display on a 36″ flat screen which is mounted on the wall as part of a public display. So the DVD is somehow compromising the HD quality? What are the alternatives? Please explain…

    Should I be rendering to a different file type and using a different type of compression? The target is a 36″ flat screen, it’s being used as part of a display.

    There’s no audio in that clip. Should I still convert it outside of AE? Does Premiere do that?

    All the clips are at 23.976 except for one which is at 29.97. Can I use Interpret Footage to change the rate to 23.976? Then you’re suggesting I render the output at 23.976, right? Thanks!
