Text and Titles blurry and blocky after export

Hi

Whenever I add text and titles to my Premiere Pro timeline it always appears sharp/crisp until it's exported. However, once exported the edges of the text/titles appears to be 'blocky', even while static, which then strobes with any introduced movement.

I do not have a separate monitor to check so can only go by the viewing window on my MacBook. I had this problem on my pervious FCP platform and it has now followed me to Prem Pro CS5.5 ...

I fully 'green line' render my timeline before exporting and I have searched for an absolute age but cannot find a/any simple fix for this frustrating problem.

Appreciate any advice or instruction that will finally free me from this problem.

Kind regards,

B

    BromleyBoy77,

    Typically, people with this issue have footage (and/or titles) that do not match sequence settings: Re: Titles are clear in source monitor but in program they are blurry. When I export video it is also blurry. Any though…

    Regards,

    Kevin

    I think, it's your export settings... What are your export settings? Make a screenshot of it, If possible.

    Hi

    Thank you for replying

    The thing is, it looks fine when playing back on the screen (Screen shot is clear/sharp depicting timeline)

    It is only AFTER it has been exported/burned to disk that the problem 'flares' up on every tv/monitor it's played upon afterwards ...

    Would it be better to create my titles (albeit simple text ones) in AE before exporting/importing into my Pro timeline ?

    Thanks

    Impossible to answer if you do not give your source, sequence and export settings.


    Hi

    Source - HD footage imorpted from HDSLR into MacBook Pro, edited on Premiere Pro CS5.5

    Test is written using the designated 'add Text' option and added directly onto the timeline (via the Text Customization Pallet)

    Sequence settings: 1920 x 1080 (1.0)

    Export settings: H.264

    When rendered fully and exported/burnt to disk (via Adobe Encore) the image is fine but the text looks very shaky when static and blocky/blurry when moving.

    This is the same problem that I faced in FCP so I'm doing the same thing wrong

    Would you recommend that I create/import all text and titles in/from After Effects?

    Can you let me know how you prepare and implement texts in your finished project, please?

    Thanks
