Jittery Playback
by Alan Williams on Jul 2, 2008 at 9:04:22 pm

During playback (especially noticeable on panning shots) I'm getting jittery strobes. Here is the kicker, if you play the same clips back they may/or maynot jitter or jitter in a different section. So the media is fine.

System Rundown
DV NTSC
FCP 6.0.4
OSX 10.4.11
Dual 2.6s

-So I trashed my prefs
-changed the timeline to dynamic on both settings
-tried moving the media to another drive (then back again
-ran disk utility (there was one error in one of the three drives)
-restarted (first haha)
-AND it did improved. Its not disaster horrible now it just looks bad.

Recently I trashed hundreds of gigs of media, also i updated my system Via software update...

Any ideas??

Thank you for any help.
Alan

If you play the clip in QuickTime, does it jitter? (Make sure high quality video is selected for the clip under visual settings).
