The preview is pixelated, not the export. Is this pixel distortion? Changing the desktop display mode between compatible and GPU Accelerated makes a difference, but not enough…

How to make the preview not distorted then?

[Jason Anthony]

yes i noticed exporting a frame to photoshop in the 1.42 PAL ratio produces a pixelated image when corrected. The export of square pixel frame image is fine but letterboxed.

Export of a video is fine though in its 1.42 PAL ratio when viewed in windows media player. Its the Adobe preview monitor that is the problem. I dont see how the pixels are being distorted though. The footage is DV 1.42 widescreen PAL and the project settings are DV 1.42 widescreen PAL.

As I said, export doesnt seem to be a problem, its just the desktop monitor.

I might recomend an external monitor to myself one day too, but they are too expensive.

Thanks

i have the same problem, why has nobody answered this?

[Jason Anthony]

I have…

pentium duo 2.4 x 2
3GB RAM
Geeforce 8500GT
250GB HDD
and a fresh install of Windows Vista

Premiere Pro 2.0 has worked fine
I have tested Premiere Pro CS3 before and its seemed fine…

So why now, is my video display in CS3 Premiere Pro after a clean install, showing unsatisfactory image?

Imported captured AVI clips that i have used before in 2.0 that are fine, and when you play these clips in Windows Media player they are crisp. But when playing in CS3 Premiere pro, the video is pixelated. The preview is set to Highest quality, the clip doesnt need rendering, the desktop display i have tried changing and all that updating graphics card drivers and stuff. Still, the video in the preview is pixelated slightly. Some people that saw it might say it looks fine. But i know for a fact it should be better than that, it was in 2.0!! I dont want my problem to seem insignificant, we should get the best quality from Adobe!

i’m afraid i’ve already tried that: doesnt work still

I don’t have an external monitor. I can’t figure out how to change any graphics card settings. No option for the Open GL.

I have a GeForce 8500 GT 512MB
with Windows Vista,
Intel Core2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20Ghz
3GB RAM

should be able to handle about anything at finest quality I thought?

Ive noticed Vista has some problems with AVI files but this shouldnt be my problem as my friend who also has grainy image is on XP.

[Jason Anthony]

No that didnt make a difference.

[Jason Anthony]

Yep, highest quality.
