Thank you for your valuable input.
 
What i actually want is to export the frames to an SDI card like decklink or 
AJA Kona, but the results of exporting through SDI are similar to an exported 
pal-dv movie.
 
The expected result is a smooth animation without flickering which should be 
possible with 25fps but there are software available that can render animations 
in realtime to SDI cards without any flickering. I have been using vizrt 
(www.vizrt.com) in my company which is based on windows(directx) and use 
bluefish444 LT cards to send output without any flickering at all speeds.
 
I have tried using quicktime's ICM and decklink SDK but the results are the 
same.
 
I hope this the information you need to understand the issue but if there is 
anything else you would like to know please do let me know
 
I will have a look at quartz crystal and will get back to you with the results. 

thanks

Nisar

It might be helpful to describe why the movie is poor. What is the expected 
result, what do you actually see, etc.


If the issue is flickering text, then yes, Quartz Composer renders at 60fps, DV 
@ 25 will make the title crawl look choppy since there are less frames to show 
the text crawl between two positions. Doing smooth titles is not easy at high 
speed, low framerate, there are some tricks you can do, but the best thing is 
to adjust the speed of the scrolling until it looks good.


Maybe look into Quartz Crystal from Kineme and use frame blending which will 
help ease the "pops" in position between consecutive frames.


Is that the issue you are noticing?

I am attaching the composition you can try opening it with quicktime pro and 
exporting it to dv-pal movie 25fps and see the result. I have also tried other 
combinations but failed to reproduce the expected result.


Thanks in advance
