Hello all, hoping someone can shed some light on a perplexing issue which I just cannot seem to figure out.
I've been trying to create a very simple "slideshow" in final cut express (audio + images). Every time I've tried to export .mp4 I get terrible blurring as one image changes to the next (no transition effects added or anything like that). So I've been exporting as .mov (which has generally has fixed that issue but desaturates the images and also messes up the contrast, which I have to correct for). In either case however, even if I export at "best quality" and at the highest possible resolution, I'm still getting a final product that when viewed full screen the images pretty poor quality (just for the record, they are high enough resolution to be viewed full screen on their own). There's got to be a simpler way, and to get actually get good results?
Below will be an example of a .mov export, and also the settings used for export
Thanks a lot guys
