Compression artifact in rendered text

[hellboy80]

When I'm rendering some titles in Vegas (in PAL DV Widescreen), some letters are badly displayed when I'm playing the video in Windows Media Player. I tried to play the video in VLC player too and there is everything ok. Where is the problem?

See these screenshots:

Do you see the difference?

It's a matter of either de-interlacing, or codec. WMP and VLC don't use the same codec pack, so you can't expect the same decoding, or bugs.

Also, the DV codec should only be used for going back to tape, or for archiving, not as end-viewing codec. As long as your Vegas decodes it correctly, you are fine.

Its ment for television broadcast. The television wants it in this format.

Ok then, just export it in DV AVI, and let them use it. Vegas exports the correct DV AVI, so as long as your project properties are set correctly, you have nothing to fear.
