  • deinterlacing problem with compressor

    Posted by Chris Brooke on October 29, 2010 at 2:09 pm

    Hi,

    I am currently building a DVD for a UK based international arts magazine featuring short films selected from a competition they ram.

    One of these films was submitted from the states and has some severe interlacing problems where fades and whip pans are concerned.

    The video was originally 23.98fps so I shoved it through compressor with frame controls enabled selecting the conversion to 25fps PAL standard and with output frames set to progressive, resize filter on best and deinterlacing on best (motion compensated) and the adaptive details tick box checked.

    The deinterlacing however seems to have absolutely no effect although all other conversions worked just fine.

    The picture I have uploaded shows the effect of this when played in QT player during a transition although it only lasts 2 or three frames it is distracting.

    Is there anyway to fix this?

    Thanks.

    If your source was originally 23.98fps, you need to detelecine (3:2 pulldown removal), not deinterlace.

    Is the footage now 23.98? If so just change the timing of the clip, in Frame Control on the bottom you choose SO source frames play at 25 fps.

    But if you want real answers you have to give real specs.

    OK, I’m not familiar with that process. Can you give me some guidance? Thanks.

    No, the frame posted above is from the video I converted to 25fps using frame control with deinterlacing turned on to best.

    What sort of specs are you referring to? Thanks.
