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

      footage imorpted from HDSLR

      That's not quiet specific enough.  DSLRs are capable of shooting in a variety of resolutions, frame rates, pixel aspect ratios and field orders.  You need to specify those.

      Export settings: H.264

      Again, not specific enough.  There are many variables that you need to specify.


      Ok, can you and/or anyone else reading please explain why these details are all necessary?

      I appreciate that they must be for many reasons that I am unaware of -

      but can we take a step back and tackle why there might be an issue? regardless of what camera or edit software because these factors have changed and the problem still remains

      Can you tell me how you generate text/titles in your projects, please?

      Do you write them onto the timeline withing Premiere Pro? Or generate/import them from AE? Or do anything 'special' whenever you put text (moving or static) in a timeline ...

      Perhaps it is something as simple as adding an anti blur? strobe? effect, as standard to all text inserts, just as these effects are added to added photos montages

      Could it be an 'standard' interlace issue or anything else simple that everyone does without issue

      Thanks
