I'm overlaying a couple of lines of text on video using the ProType titler. Source footage is 1080-60i. Frame size for the Titler is 1440x1080.
I've tried the default font size of 2.0 with the Candara font and various combinations (drop shadow applied, font weight set to normal/bold, sharpen filter of 0.0/0.2 added to the titler) but the resulting font is extremely blurry and out-of-focus when the MPEG-2 SD DVD is played on a 720p projector. The font is crisp when the DVD is played on an LCD monitor. I also tried the old text media event but got roughly the same results.
Any ideas what to try to improve sharpness? To see if it's something with the projector, I tried a different DVD of my earlier movie (shot from SD footage and edited on FCP by a friend) and the fonts looks crisp on that one, so I think I'm somehow not having the right settings.
Thanks for any help...
