Szalam May 24, 2010 6:20 AM (in response to ANTHONY THOMAS)It shouldn't render "jaggy", but I wouldn't trust Encore's preview window for any sort of quality check on your video. It's not really intended for that.

How are you getting the AE output into Encore? Some kind of hot link? I do not use Adobe video products except AE so I don't know who that stuff is accomplished but in Apple's FCP suite, I usually get best results by rendering out of one product and importing the movie into the next product in the chain.

ANTHONY THOMAS May 24, 2010 4:03 PM (in response to ANTHONY THOMAS)I have rendered it into a m2v format. When I watch it in windows media player or Encore theres lots of pixelation but in After Effects its smooth. I am hoping it will render correctly on the blu ray, if it doesn't I am lost about why.

Szalam May 25, 2010 6:10 AM (in response to ANTHONY THOMAS)Are you saying the M2V file plays back smoothly in After Effects or that your comp that you later rendered into the M2V file is smooth?
If the comp is smooth but the M2V isn't, we're going to need a lot more information. What is your comp size and settings? What sort of render settings did you use for the M2V?
I wouldn't suggest rendering an M2V out of AE anyway. I'd render a lossless AVI or MOV (like Quicktime with the PNG codec) with AE and let Encore do the M2V encoding. AE can't do two-pass encoding which gives you a better quality video at the same file size. (You could also import your AE project into the Adobe Media Encoder and simply render the M2V out of there, but I prefer the other method.)

ANTHONY THOMAS May 25, 2010 5:25 PM (in response to ANTHONY THOMAS)Sorry for the confusion. When I preview the comp in After Effects it is smooth.

Szalam May 26, 2010 6:16 AM (in response to ANTHONY THOMAS)If it looks fine in AE, but bad in Encore and renders bad onto the Blu-ray, then we'll need to look at what your comp size was and all of your render settings.

ANTHONY THOMAS May 30, 2010 8:52 PM (in response to Szalam)I followed your advice and rendered an AVI, and then used Adobe Media Encoder to create a VBR 2 pass m2v. Everything worked out.
