  If you are trying to create interlaced video on a DVD, then you need this horizontal lines in the video. They don’t appear on an interlaced television monitor when resized correctly. I wrote an article on transferring HD footage to DVD for the Los Angeles Final Cut Pro users group that covers all the details of this.

  How are you using MPEGStreamclip and with what settings? I don’t recommend using MPEGStreamclip, as it’s not easy to use and I’ve found it has a lot of problems.

  Brad Wright is software engineer, so it may be difficult to understand what he is saying. He is always happy to explain his greater detail.

  You shoot interlaced.
  Your footage is interlaced.
  Computer screens don’t display interlaced footage properly.
  You finished DVD’s should look fine played on a DVD player in the Living Room.
