  Progressive and Deinterlacing

  Posted by Huzzporter on November 26, 2007 at 4:31 pm

  There is so much information out there, it is hard to find a decent answer. I use the panasonic and always shoot in 25p (PAL). At the moment I am editing in PremPro, and while there is an option for NTSC users when opening a new project to use 24p project settings, there isn’t for 25p.
  I know that this is to do with the NTSC framerates of 29.9fps and 24fps film, but one thing I am not clear on is the deinterlacing features.
  From what I understand, I should NEVER deinterlace progressively shot footage. Correct? But how does Premiere know that my footage is Progressive as I will use the same timeline as footage that was shot interlaced by a more conventional camera? Does the capture device treat it the same way? Should I choose upper or lower field options so not to have interlace conflictions??

  You should choose the standard DV PAL 25frames per second settings. And then set your fields to none or progressive- whatever your version of Premiere calls it. And you should not need to deinterlace as it’s never been interlaced if you shot 25p.
