Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply. It looked like a high gain noise but everything was on auto gain. I think i have solved the problem by changing the custom picture profile. I’m not seeing any noise now.
Fingers crossed!

Appreciate your time

Problem solved! Never change the name of your files as FCP can’t read them. I had renamed ‘CONTENTS’, changed it back and Log and Transfer worked perfectly. Lesson learnt..

Hi Harry,

Thanks for your reply. AUTO GAIN / FULL AUTO switches are set to off – Yes they were. The picture noise was random when shooting outside it seemed worse then in low light inside. Some scenes looked great in the same light and others really noisey.
I actually think i’ve solved the problem by playing around and changing the custom picture profile and i’m now not seeing any noise. Fingers crossed this will work.
Appreciate your time and help.

Thanks
Paul

Hi Eric,
Our settings are correct in Compressor (Interlace, frame rate etc) and we go to Toast because we were initially told it was the best route to DVD. Should we simply burn from DVD Studio Pro and will this give better results?
Thanks.
