Q: Compressor's m2v file pulsates / artifacts
We are a wedding video production company in NYC who lately has had a recurring issue with Compressor.
We are on a Mac Pro 2 X 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running OS 10.6.8 using Final Cut 7.0.3 and Compressor 3.5.3.
It seems that when ever we are exporting an m2v file using any of the of presets such as DVD Best Quality 120 mins, 150 mins, or Auto, the image begins to artifact or pulsate after 90 mins when there is very active dancing taking place. And it's only during the fast paced dancing after 90 mins. The pulsating occurs for amount 5 seconds continously and then stops for a couple seconds and then starts again. It's an usable file.
We never had an issue the first six months we had this exact setup and now it's happening all the time.
Any thoughts on why that is? Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you.
