Text not sharp on Playback...

Hi -

I've recently purchased an NTSC RCA monitor (TV) to playback through. I've never had problems with text on screen not looking crisp upon final output, but I've noticed that on screen (TV) my text is quite blurry. It is not white, but silver-gray on black and of course looks great on pause within the timeline - blurry while playing.

Does this have anything to do with field dominance? I get a minor improvements moving to Lower field dominance.

Also, what is the best way to place a logo image (as a high res psd?) into the timeline and have the output, or display look sharp as well?

Thanks in advance.
Tim
 
Don't worry about it. Happens to everyone(i think). For some reason as soon as you render it it looks like crap on the tv whilest being played.

but, when you are done and export it in whatever fashion whether it's dvd, web clip etc, it looks fine.
 
Hi Tim,
Under System Settings the Playback Control tab has a Video Quality selector that you'll want to set to High if it's not there already. If your system starts dropping frames set it back to where it was.
cheers,
Sam
