Re: Srolling credits issues

Thanks Dave & Todd. I'm an editor, not a compositor - meaning I know just enough to cause problems...

First, we decided to use white text again a black bg, with a few colored gfx sprinkled throughout. Next, I changed the original psd to 300 dpi, which noticeably helped the sharpness problem I first posted about. I also added the reduce interlace flicker filter, which we THOUGHT helped. So while the end titles look great in After Effects, and the QT export (Animation codec) also looks great when viewing in Quicktime, the problem has been in making the test DVDs.

When playing back the DVD, there's a fringing around the edges of text and graphics. I finally tried using Kevin Camp's position expression. Unfortunately while the timeline seems to play correctly, it does not end correctly - the scroll ends a few seconds before the last frame has passed the viewer. The scroll ends with thje last frame of image in the top third of the frame.

Finally, I've done different exports at both 24fps AND 29.97, and it doesn't make a difference when viewing the DVD.

Is there ANYTHING else I can do?

Thanks again,
