To interlace or not to interlace?
I’m pondering.
Recently I posted on here because I had a timeline with a mixture of DV & HDV clips (upper & lower field). My output was DVD and someone suggested de-interlacing the lot & there it was, problem solved! Most DVD players read progressive so that’s great.
I also learned that my HDV clips when placed in the DV sequence had the shift-fields filter automatically applied by FCP so this got me wondering, if I set up say, a DV Pal sequence with the fields set to none, then drag the same DV & HDV clips onto it, will it add the de-interlace filter? It doesn’t, but the clips play fine on the monitor, as though they’re progressive. No field flicker.
So am I right in thinking that if i’m going to output to the Web or DVD, and am editing a with a variety of different formats, I might as well set my sequence’s fields to “none” every time and stop worrying about interlacing issues altogether?
Would there be any foreseeable problems doing this?
