VideoStudio :: Imported MPEG4 Files Are Blurry
May 30, 2012
I am using Corel VS X5. I have created MPEG4 files using Adobe Captivate and imported them into Corel. When I preview them, if I select Clip, the video looks fine. But if I preview the Project, the video is blurred. I first thought it might be caused by Smart Proxy but after disabling that feature, the problem persisted. I tried publishing the project to see if the final version would be ok. Still no luck. I tried the online chat and they suggested updating my viewers. I did as instructed and restarted my PC. Still no luck. My imported MPEG4 file is 1024x767 HD.

I'm editing MPEG-4 PAL HD files from a Samsung Cam. After editing, I want to create a MPEG-4 HD file with the same profile (1920x1080 at 25 fps). Choosing MPEG4-HD profile, 30 fps files are generated. Also defining a MPEG4 custom profile with H.264-MAIN type and 1920x1080 resolution, the fps is locked at 30 (at lower resolutions, like 1280x720 the frame rate can be modifies). Ist it a constraint of H.264-MAIN video type ot a bug ?
Please consider that VS X3 is installed for PAL Video System and choosing Bluray profile or AVCHD profile PAL HD files 25 fps are generated.

My first video camera was a 30 fps NTSC and I output my videos as MPEG-4 HD files. Then I bought a new PAL video camera. To be safe I uninstalled my copy of VSProX4 and reinstalled it, checking the PAL option. However, when I created my first video clip using the MPEG-4 HD option in the drop down list, it created a file at 30 fps and not surprisingly the panning was very jerky. I uninstalled the program and ticked the option to uninstall all personal data. I also deleted the VSProX4 folders from user/user/my documents/. When I reinstalled the program all my saved projects came up on the screen and it still wants to make MPEG-4 files at 30 fps.
Presumably I should have deleted the Corel folder from the progam files folder after I'd deleted the program to get rid of all personal settings. Anyway, my question is this: is it actually possible to create MPEG-4 files at 25 fps (or preferably at 50 fps as this is what I am shooting)? If so, what do I have to do to get VSProX4 to create them? Is there some way to edit the MPEG-4 HD option in the drop down list from Create a Video File? If not, is it possible to make a template for MPEG-4 HD at 25 or 50 fps? The reason I'm keen to get this right is that I can play MPEG-4 HD files from a USB stick plugged into my TV. The only other way I can watch them on TV is to create AVCHD files and write them to a DVD.

I have recently 'downsized' to a sanyo xacti vpc-cg100ex camera to lighten my load on holiday! this produces mpeg-4 video files which I copy straight to a folder on my laptop from the SD card.
I can put these into the vs library and tranfer them onto the timeline and add trnsitions, titles etc. however VS is closing down with increasing frequency.(same files on my old xp machine seem to work ok albeit depressingly slowly!)
I have been searching the forum and wonder if I should be converting the files to some other format before doing any editing....does that involve using the share option straight after loading the files, and if so, how?
the properties of the original file are
Type mp4 video,
1920 * 1080,
59 frames/sec, bitrate 252,
audio sample rate 48kh
the properties given for the file on the timeline are
Format Mpeg-4 file,
Vid Type H.264 Main profile video, Upper Field first,
Attributes 24bits 1920*1080 16.9
Frame rate 29.970 frames per s
Audio type MPEG AAC 48000 hz 16 bit stereo
I have not been doing any video at all for quite some time so am definately somewhat rusty.

I downloaded the trial version of VideoStudio 4 Pro to try it out and I like the interface and the ease of use. My problem is that when I capture MPEG 4 files in the timeline and go to replay them, the sound and video are very choppy and the replay skips the whole way through.
I converted the MPEG 4 files to wmv, and the video was smooth but I lost some of the image clarity in the converting process. I don't think it's my computer because the MPEG 4 files play nicely on MediaPlayer - just not on VideoStudio.

I have a JPEG cartoon image (company logo) that I want to import. When I do the logo goes blurry. Not terrible, but when you zoom in, way more blurry than if you opened the picture in Microsoft Picture Manager.

I tried to set my project as MPEG4 with resolution 1920x1080 and bitrate 30000 but I can not find how to do it.
Even I set to another format like M2TS it can set to 1920x1080 but the bitrate is only 18000.

My video won't share as a MPEG-4 HD. Here are the steps I take:
1. Click the "Share" Tab
2. Click "Create Video File"
3. Click "MPEG-4"
4. Click "MPEG-4 HD
5. Select the destination folder for the output
6. Click "Save".
The progress shows 0% and the progress bar goes away after fifteen seconds. I am sharing it as an MPEG-4 HD file because it will be placed on Youtube by someone else. I've probably done four of these projects the same way and they execute just fine.
Here's some more informtion:
Brand: Dell Laptop
HDD: 464GB; Used Space 153GB; Free Space 311GB
Processsor Intel(R) Cor (TM) i7 CPU Q820 #1.73GHz 1.73GHz
Ram: 8GB
System Type: 64 Bit Operating System
Pen and Touch: Pen and Touch is available through 80 touch points
The video is a WMV2, 24 bits 1024 x768, 29.982 frames/second; Audio is windows media audio version 4, aspect ratio is 1.33 x 1.00. It is editable.
Here's how my timeline looks:
BLACK GRAPHIC = 2 SECONDS; TRANSITION (FADE TO BLACK) = 2 SECONDS; 10 SECOND CLIP; 3 SECOND CLIP; 00:42:33 CLIP.

I'm outputting DV-AVI files filmed on a Sony A1 in DV CAM as MPEG-4 videos for upload to Vimeo.The projects and source files are:
PAL (25 fps)
Microsoft AVI files
24 bits, 720 x 576, 16:9, 25 fps
Lower Field First
Matrox DV/DVCAM -- type 2
PCM, 48.000 kHz, 16 Bit, Stereo
I have been outputting to create movies with the following properties:
MPEG-4 Files
24 bits, 1280 x 720, 25 fps
Frame-based
H.264 Main Profile Video: 5000 Kbps
44100 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo
MPEG AAC Audio: 128 Kbps
I'm using VideoStudio Pro X5 trial version.
Should I in fact select / have selected Lower Field First or is Frame Based OK? Is it safer / more reliable to select Lower Field First if that's the format of the source files? The videos seem to look OK on my laptop - don't know about Vimeo.

I have VS Pro X5. My footage is shot at 1920 x 1080p with 25 fps and I would like to produce mpeg4 video file with same parameters. I select custom settings, mpeg-4, H.264 high, frame size 1920 x 1080, but then fps is set to 30 and it is greyed out. Is this the limitation of VS? Is there any way to produce high quality HD with 25 fps?

I'm using the 30-day trial version of Corel Videostudio Pro X5.
The problem is that all the videos (all files are MPEG-4) I add to the library are muted, I can't hear anything from the audio when I play it. It's the same problem when I add the clip to the timeline, it shows that the clip is normal & the audio should be fine but nothing can be heard. I've tried purposely muting it & then unmuting, I've also tried splitting audio, I've tried all possible audio settings I've found in the program but everything I've tried has no effect. I've checked a million times that the audio on my computer is on, & the videofiles play normally with perfect audio on every media player I have, but I can't hear anything in the editing software.
Is there a setting that makes the files automatically mute & I haven't noticed it, or doesn't Corel Videostudio just support MPEG-4, or is this like a weird glitch in the trial version?

I've rendered my project to MPEG4 and the audio has a light popping intermittently through it. I thought it might be caused by having multiple video overlays but only one track had audio enabled. I've now split out the audio and put it into it's own track but I'm still getting the poor quality sound.

I recently tried to convert a 76 minute movie in mpeg 4 to mpeg 2 using the batch convert function. I first went into options and set the bit rate to 6100 kbps and the audio to Dolby 2 ch. stereo, with the bit rate set to constant. After the conversion had taken place, I found the results were excellent, except that only 38 minutes were converted. I tried it again, but still only 38 minutes and then it it finishes. Why won't it convert the full 76 minutes? The destination folder is on my "D" drive which is 1 TB, so there is lots of room.

Some of the movies I've been creating play OK in Windows Media Player but when you try and skip to a later part of the movie by holding and moving the toggle bar there is a 'Windows Media Player has a problem playing the movie' error. All the videos are the correct length and file size. Is there a problem with the files and would it affect how they play on Vimeo? Do I need to do them again? What can I do differently?

I'm loading a bunch of JPG pictures to create a slideshow and they are all blurry. Yet when I view them in windows Photo Viewer, they are all nice and crisp. I'll probably will also add video files later in the project. So I'm at a lost why the JPGs look great in one program and blurry in VS X5!
For PreferenceEdit, my "resampling Quality" is Best and I keep aspect ration. i checked "Apply anti-flickering filter on photos" and cache them in memory.
The project properties are NTSC DVD/16:9. Frame Type is "Upper field first".Setting is 100 "Quality" at a variable rate of 8000. Perform non-square pixel rendering is selected.I also tried Frame type as "Frame-based" without better success.
In case some asks, my video card is an ATI HD5670
BTW, after applying Service Pack 1, in Preference, the "Default transition effect" keeps going back to Random. I tried selecting cross fade but it keeps going back to Random!

I captured in HD, edited in Video Studio X3 then output to MPEG using same settings as video files. I then gave up trying to burn using Movie Factory Pro 7se as it kept crashing during render so I used DVD Flick. the resulting DVD seems fine apart from when the camera pans and the video appears to be a little blurry. Any stills or slow panning are perfect.
Dropping the bit rate from 9000kbps to 8000kbps but that just made the video look awful.

I'm using Corel videostudio Ultimate X6 and regularly record live bands, upload them to youtube after I convert them to a MP4 format using videostudio. A few months ago one of the venues installed a set of quick flashing lights, now my videos look blocky and you can't even make out their faces.

I have captured some screenshots for use in a video. In VideoStudio, when the video is paused, the text looks crisp and is easily read. When the video is playing, the text becomes blurry and very hard to read. I have taken the snapshots using the PrintScreen key and pasted the image into Excel where I trimmed them and then used an Add-in called GraphicsExporter to save the images. I have tried saving them as gif, jpg, png, and tiff images and the results are the same. I pull the image into VideoStudio and have it on screen while I narrate. Everything looks great when the image is in the viewing window but when I hit the play button it becomes blurry and some images are unreadable.
Is there something obvious that I am doing wrong? Maybe not using standard cropping margins or some other mechanical practice that I can change?

I am making a screen shot video for my website. I created 6 individual short videos that look great. When you play them individually, they look great. These are "how to use the website" short videos that do have typing on the screen. The typed words are perfectly clear as individual videos.
As soon as i merge the clips into 1 video, the typed words and the whole video gets fuzzy. I have re-shot new videos and I get the same result.
I have searched all over the internet for the last couple of weeks researching a solution. I've enlisted smart proxy and gone through just about every setting in "preferences" painstakingly slow and I still can't figure it out.
All of my information for my computer should be correct, but wasn't sure if i got the video card correct.

I use CS5.1 and just recently when I go to save my edited file as a TIFF, the file is now blurry. I even tried to save a RAW file as a TIFF (with no editing) and it is still coming up blurry

I'm using Draw X5 to make a diagram using lines, circles, etc. When I try to export this to .tiff, the resulting images are very blurry and unusable. I'm using 300dpi without compression. I've tried with and without anti-aliasing. I can export the exact same thing to .jpg or .gif and they look perfect. Unfortunately I'm submitting this for publication and they require 300dpi .tiff files as the format.

I am using Photoshop Elements 10 Version 10 (20110831.m.17215) and everytime I plug in a memory card to upload images it wants to upload every image on the card, even though it has previously uploaded images from that card, even though I have the "Copy New Files Only (Ignore Already Imported Files)" box ticked in the preferences Camera or Card Reader section. This gets very frustrating and time consuming when I have to go through the images every single time to uncheck the images that have already been uploaded.

I have a Canon DC210 SD digital camcorder, which records onto mini DVD's. The camcorder has no USB, IEEE 1394, connector on it. The only way to get video clips onto my PC is to put the mini DVD into the DVD drive of my PC. The video clips are stored in .VOB format, which is a shell for MPEG2 data. The camcorder records a timecode in the video file, but when I use the Capture/Import from Digital Media function that timecode does not get brought into VS X3. I have searched the forum, and see several articles about timecode imports from DV tape, but I didn't find anything about importing from digital media.
I have tried putting a check in the Add Video Date Information as Title checkbox, but I do not get the timecode in the imported file. Canon assures me the timecode is there ready to be imported along with the MPEG video data, but I can't get at it. I have tried importing directly from the mini DVD, and from the .VOB files saved on my hard drive, still no timecode in the imported clips.

I just purchased Corel VideoStudio Pro X4 and I am having a problem. The video camera I use is a GoPro Hero that records in MPEG-4 and I have been using the 16:9, 1080 P, 30 frames per second mode. When I import a video to VideoStudio and try to play the clip, it is obscured by constant blotchy, snowy, large random pixelation for lack of a better word. In any case, you can hardly see the video. If I import a standard definition video taken with the same camera everything seems to be OK. The video displays perfectly on my computer if I just play it.

When importing a HD project (not rendered footage) into another HD project in VSX2, the movement of objects in the rendered AVCHD is 'stuttered' - why ?This is NOT a transition or title stutter as per one of my previous posts - which was resolved by downloading the trial version of VSX3.
In VSX2 I have cut down my AVCHD source film into smaller, more manageable chapters - each a separate VSX2 project.When assembling these chapters, I chose the "import project" (ex chapter 2 into chapter 1) as I used to do with UMSP7.0 Once BD-RE is cooked, the first chapter looks fine but the subsequent chapters have very noticeable problems with movement - especially vehicles moving accross the screen - it looks like the frame rate has gone right down to 10fps (iso 25 for PAL).
Oddly enough (I would have thought it should be the opposite), if I render each chapter to AVCHD and then import the rendered chapters, image movement is much smoother (virtually same as original).The project properties are all the same in each project (PAL AVCHD 1920X1080 25fps); I have tried activating the 2-pass render and have tried switching on and off the anti-flicker but no improvement.
The "import project" feature that I used in UMSP7 is great because it allows you to create the chapters independently but then put some uninterrupted music over the links between chapters in the final project to ensure continuity if desired.
