I don't know if shimmering is the word, but people seem to be using it a lot these days so i figured I might as well.

Today i rendered a short video for my brother's logo concept for this company he works for, and it was 120frames. It rendered no problem and plenty fast, but on playback it was shimmering pretty bad. i have an ATI AIW x800XT on catalyst 5.8.

i know ATI has never been so compatible with anything from Autodesk, but I expected to see better clarity than this for sure.

here is the file so you can see what im talking about:

so is this a driver problem or what setting do i not have? I had opengl (3dsmax is running on that) on performance and quality and got the same results.

thanks for any help

The rendering has nothing to do with your videocard, it's all CPU. The video card is only used to display what you see in the viewports. The issues that you can see in your render most likely have something to do with the compression you used. Try rendering it again as a uncompressed AVi and see how that goes.
 
Yeah, that's a video codec thing. The shimmering shows on my linux system with an nVidia graphics card.
