Q: The shared movie from IMOVIE shows noise and  horizontal lines where i added some photos

I inserted some photos at the end of  my movie ( around 7 min long , 4 k , but rendered at 1020 ) but at the beginning some black  and white rows appear instead of the photo and that happens also with other photo.

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

    Are you by any chance using iMovie '11 (version 9)?  This does not work properly with still photos under El Capitan, only the latest version, 10.1.2.

    I imported the same video in Final Cut Pro, i reimported again the photo and changed the title, but i have the same problem. In the exported video the photo is substituted by horizontal lines ! As shown here :Schermata 2016-09-13 alle 21.18.59.png

    So it seems that the photo format is the problem.  Are the problem photos .jpgs or some other format?  Try converting them into .png or .pdf formats and re-importing into iMovie.  (This worked for some problem photos reported some time ago with iMovie 10.1 and macs with particular graphics cards - although it seemed to have been solved in iMovie 10.1.1.
