a flicker by the edge

Post by Peep Productions »

Hi,

Just wondered if there is a way of getting rid of the flicker on the right edge (sometimes at the bottom) of the screen. This has been really annoying me as I usually showcase my videos on the internet. Now this only seems to occur when editing and when I have created a windows media player file. I do turn the anti-flicker function on but it seems to make it worse. It used to happen when I created DVDs but since I have upgraded it hasn't shown any signs of doing it again when creating a DVD.

Is it something I'm doing or is it a general problem?

That is a normal symptom of capturing from an analog video source, you are seeing the overscan area where the electron beam that produces the image retraces. The only reason why you don't see it on a TV is because the area is covered up.

Simply use the Cropping filter and set the size to 96 to 98% of the original size, that will get rid of it.
