interlace problem
I have made a computer render from 3D, and I rendered it as a progressive frames of targa sequence. Then I exported it to prores mov file with no fields. I imported in final cut pro 6 and on in the sequence settings I select no fields. On the computer screen it is fine and picture is smooth, but on the TV monitor or on mini DV tape it is with wrong fields, I mean all the diagonal lines in the image are not straight they are broken in kind of stairs. I have tried many variations but I do not understand what is happening. I hope someone can help.

Try changing the sequence setting to lower field first or even (for DV), then render. Your setup is making a progressive output which is not suitable for interlaced monitoring or delivery. So you must interlace your output if it is finally to be viewed on interlaced monitors (CRT TVs) or SD DVD.
You may also try rendering out from your 3D app with fields but make sure that you use the proper field order for your delivery format or the video footage you may be mixing it with.
If your delivery format is internet/computer video, 720p, 1080p or film out, you will want to stay progressive with you graphics and de-interlace any interlaced footage you have at some point in your work flow.
If going to SD DVD, your sequence can be progressive and compressor will interlace when re-compressing to mpeg2.
Good luck.
