  • Can you combine upper and lower field sd video on a dvd?

    Posted by Dennis Stimac on April 18, 2013 at 8:03 pm

    I have some hd down-converted to sd upper field first and some sd lower field footage i’d like to combine together on a dvd. The upper field is for the main title and the lower field video is for the menu background video only.

    I know I could de-interlace the menu video and re-render as upper field, but id rather stick with the master copy settings as-is, if I could.

    Could this cause potential playback or viewing issues on some dvd players or does it not matter?

    I plan on distributing copies of this video and wouldn’t want any incompatibility.

    Thanks in advance.
