Why do the videos I upload look grainy?

Go211.com Forums: Talk about action and extreme sports! - FA...
To ensure that the videos uploaded to Go211 load quickly, we compress them. A side-effect is that sometimes this process results in diminished fidelity in videos. For the most part, however, the quality of the videos is directly proportional to the quality of the video uploaded to the site. In other words, uploading higher-quality videos will produce better results than uploading lower-quality ones.

My pictures look grainy. Why?

Canon EOS Beginners' FAQ V - Misc
If you have noticeable grain or speckles on your film-derived prints it’s very probable that your negatives are highly underexposed (ie: they were not exposed to sufficient light). When photo printing machines encounter underexposed negatives they tend to boost the brightness to compensate, which tends to reveal bad speckly grain. Take a look at your negatives by holding them up to the light. If they seem very transparent and light then they’re underexposed.

Why does the picture have noise and look grainy?

Linux OV511 Driver - Frequently Asked Questions
This is a problem at low light levels, and may be also due to subtle bugs in the code. The cause is most likely the OV7610 settings we are currently using. I am looking into this problem. Some of this is caused by the older technologies and manufacturing processes used in the OV7610 and OV7620AE. The OV7620 is much better about this.

On my screen the panoramas look a little grainy/pixelated? Why is this?

Check that you do not have multiple panoramas open at once, or other Java applets open on other websites. When you open the panorama in a window you get a lower resolution version of the panorama - you can click the button to view full-screen, but the image may look pixelated.

Why do some of the iceberg images look upside down? And sometime backwards?

Iceberg FAQ's
One set of satellite images is ingested in reverse. Remapping the image to the normal view detracts from the quality of the image. Why do the geographical lines jump around from image to image? Why is the iceberg south of -78 in the 16:38UTC image, at -78 in the 9:19UTC image, and south -78 again in the 09:49 image? Why does the navigation (map outline) look rock steady, while the surface features don't? I'm not a POES user.

Why does the contrast look different between images?

Cassini-Huygens: FAQ
The camera measures light from an object at each point in an image and assigns it a number from zero to 4095 depending on its brightness. Sometimes the scientist can't afford to send this amount of data for each pixel because of the amount of storage it takes. The camera has the ability to convert this range of values to those from zero to 255. The camera does this according to a preset table of values designed by the scientists.

Why do these images look different than conventional x-rays?

LLU Scool of Dentistry - Volumetric Imaging FAQ
These images are not taken in the same fashion as conventional x-rays, which is why they look different. However, if you take a close look at the images produced, you will find that they have much more information and are clearer than most conventional x-rays. They are different, but once you become familiar with the images, you will find them very helpful in diagnosis. We would be happy to set up a meeting with our staff doctor to familiarize you with the reading of the NewTom images.

Why do my images look blotchy or blurry?

If your scans are looking bad on the screen, but printing out satisfactorily, it could be your video driver that is causing the problem. Try some different resolution and color settings in the "Display" portion of your control panel (after first making sure that you have the proper driver disks to restore your system to the original settings). You should be using a driver that provides 16+million colors, and a resolution of at least 800 x 600.
