Final Cut Pro Video Export Problems
Hey guys, a fairly quick one here. I'm working on a video for a friend, the final resolution needs to be 768 x 576 (4:3). It is a mix of video and stills in a slideshow(ish) format. This is all fine and exports nicely until I add any text, I cannot seem to export under any codec or by changing any settings so that the text is not completely smooth. I am currently exporting using quicktime conversion at:
Quicktime .mov
Resolution: 768 x 576
Compression type: H.264
Quality: Best
Keyframes every 24 frames
Preserving aspect ratio using cropping
Deinteralcing of source video is switched on
I have tried several variations and none seem to give me crisp, non-jagged text.
Any help would be GREATLY appreicated

I don't know if there is really anything you can do. If you are planning on putting it on DVD or something like that on a monitor, it should look fine, but digitally, the pixels will likely show. It's just the nature of digital video at times. How bad is it, though? Can you post a picture?

Here's a screencap:
I think that pretty much shows what I described, its just the text that is jagged around the edges. I did put it on a DVD and still had the same problem on both several monitors and a 2 different TV's I tried (both LCD and plasma flatscreens). I really hope there is something I can do improve the quality
For DVD export, I've mixed text with interlaced footage before and it has always come out looking smooth as far as I remember. Are you just exporting using Compressor direct from Final Cut?
