  Capturing from DV Camcorder

  Posted by Mrblonde on February 6, 2006 at 11:16 pm

  I have a problem when capturing video from my Sony DCR-HC40E PAL camcorder: the created avi file shows horizontal lines when the image is in motion, but it looks smooth when it is still. I don’t know exactly whether it is a problem of the camera or I’m not doing it correctly, so I would much appreciate any help you could give.

  Thanks in advance.

  This is almost certainly a result of capturing with the wrong project settings for interlace pattern. Did you set the project to NTSC by mistake?

  Changing the interlace field order should resolve this problem. It’s not so much that the capture was wrong, more that Premier is displaying the fields in the wrong order. Double check that your Project is DV PAL.
