More problems with PE9

Postby Hawk10Vid » Thu Jan 20, 2011 10:04 am

I am having trouble with moire type static in my videos. I recorded ACHDV at 1080i 30P. When I view the raw file (.mst file produced by my Panasonic camera) using Realtime, the resolution and clarity are perfect. But, when I bring the file into PE9 through 'get media', (with the same settings -- 1080i 30P) and view it either in the sceneline or on the timeline, I get bad moire effects, flickering and poor resolution. Yet, when I pause on just one frame, the resolution is again perfect. Is there some setting somewhere in the prefences or project setting that I may have inadvertently changed or have wrong that would be causing this? Since the raw video plays in Realtime fine and looks great on my computer, it doesn't seem that it is a computer or processing power issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Hawkeye

Is there a red line above the video?

No, there is not redline above the clip(s). The clips are in their raw imported form after importing them through the Organize function, and they show this problem even in the preview mode befoer adding the clip to the Timeline. Thus, it is apparently not an issue related to 'rendering' or anything like that. It just appears that PE9 doesn't stream the video in its natural form/rate or something.

Can someone refresh my memory please, isn't there a playback setting that effects the quality of the playback in the monitor?

If you right-click on the video in the Monitor panel, you can set playback quality level.

Maybe that's all you need to change Hawkeye :)

Hi,
So I noticed the same problem when getting 60P videos from my TM700. Setting the quality in the monitor does not make much difference. In order to test it out, I put on the time line three types of the same video clip, an MTS file I copied straight from the camcorder, an M2TS file that was downloaded through Panasonic HD Writer, and an M2TS file than was converted from 60P to 60I to make it a true AVCHD file. I used the HD Writer program which actually uses the camcorder to do this conversion.

The two natives are actually clearer than the AVCDH files. Of course the two native ones have red lines above them while the AVCHD does not. Rendering them, making a green bar above them, actually makes it worse, more like the AVCHD file (as expected).

However, when I create a "DVD" on my computer, they all play back the same and I cannot tell the difference between them.

Now I should caveat all this by saying that I only have a 2 core machine, so PRE9 cannot play the files back in real time. Instead it is clear that it is leaving out lots of frames, so maybe this makes a difference. As the final burn is fine, I just didn't worry about it for now. One day I'll get an 8 core machine with 12G and all this will be in the past :-D .
Regards,
Norm
