![]() This bad quality reflects badly on Vegas and, unfortunately, on the person delivering the video, even though the problem is in no way their fault. As this thread shows, people are getting into trouble because of them, and delivering video that looks like heck. Therefore, my recommendation to SCS would be to hide these settings under an "advanced" button, and to re-work all existing templates to un-check these boxes. ![]() However, while having that ability to trade off frame rate for spatial quality may have been a reasonable "engineering trade off" five or six years ago, Internet video is now full frame rate, HD quality, with Netflix, Hulu, Vimeo, and many other sites quite capable of delivering great quality at 24 fps or higher. The reason those check boxes are set by default is probably to ensure the lowest file size for Internet uploads the problem though is that it should not be called "Optimized" but "Compromised" :)I am sure you are correct. Should that not happen, I got something to work with and will keep you posted if I have some success. Thanks in advance for your time, any further help is much appreciated. I am going to continue my research, but I am thinking something is wrong in the rendering process. I changed Vimeo settings if you wish to download and verify my analysis. Before my analysis was purely subjective. The bad news is I have no idea what could be wrong, the good news is I have something tangible and objective to work with. I don't know where the terrible blur is coming from, the blur is not there in the original footage. However, in between each of these sharp frames was a frame that was very blurry (terribly blurry, horrible, horrible, horrible). I found that every other frame was a sharp image that I would expect. I did not see duplicate frames, but something even weirder. Your "duplicate frame" theory is pretty darn close and just about dead on.īased on your comment that the video may have duplicate fields, I loaded the "rendered" file on a VP timeline and stepped through it frame by frame. My monitor is set to display video with levels from 16 to 235 correctly, your camera records 0 to 255 and if you graded the video on an uncalibrated / uncorrected computer monitor then what I'm seeing will not be the same as what you're seeing. On my office PC monitor it looks too "contrasty" and over saturated. "Regarding the overcooked look, not sure what that means." JM's original comments about shooting at low fps are very apt and the people shooting film or digital cinema are always having to be mindful of these limitations.Ģ) Something else more obscure is going wrong but as JM said we'd need access to the original footage to know for sure. Having got that possibility out of the way then we're down to two possibilities:ġ) You simply were moving the camera too quickly for the subject matter. The only time I've used a slower than 180deg shutter is to get a bit more light. I guess you could try a 270deg shutter to add more blur but I really doubt that'll help. No, you've got the shutter speed so close to correct (technically it should be 1/48th) as to make zero difference. ![]() "Do you think I should have shot with slower shutter speed?" The other solution is to not pan the camera except when tracking a moving object, and then do so only when zoomed in quite a bit so as to not make the background (which will still judder, even though the moving object being followed by the pan will not) look too bad. In my experience, until you get to about 50-60 events per second (50i, 60i, 50p, or 60p), you are going to have judder when panning the camera. You can also use this program (or the free MVTools2, via AVISynth) to go to 30 fps progressive or some other faster frame rate. If you want to make the existing video look better, the only solution is to use Twixtor or other similar motion-estimation software program to interpolate between frames and create an artificial 29.97 ("60i") interlaced format. There is nothing you can do about this: it is the nature of a really slow frame rate, and is not a defect in your camera and is not due to rolling shutter. If you shoot in this mode, you will get "judder" when you horizontally pan the camera, unless you pan really slowly.
