help with text in imovie
I edited and made a movie then made it into a dvd, but the text is quite pixelated. Is there a way to make the text a lot sharper? I made credits and they are completely unreadable. The movie is also pixelated. I believe I used the highest possible setting, so I can't see why it wouldn't work. If there are any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. CHeers!

What are you watching it on?
If you are making a 320x240 or 160x120 flick then it will look really bad on a computer, but should look better on a TV.
It my be because I am using a white font on a black backround, although I have muted the shade a bit... should I be sticking to certain 'safe' fonts?
Changing the 30-second-long movie to export in H.264 solved the problem but now the file is 15 TIMES smaller than the "full quality" version! It is 2MB instead of 30!
Can someone please put my mind at rest that I have not sacrificed quality somewhere else here - that I'm not going to import it to iDVD and then find the picture looks rubbish on my TV?
It just seems too good to be true. And if it is better, why doesn't iMovie default to H.264?
EDIT: I found this thread in a search, but it appears to be in the iPod forum - please move it, Mr Moderator!
