  Vegas, DVD Architect rendering issue

  Posted by Joe Simpson on April 19, 2010 at 1:59 am

  I am using a canon hv40 shooting in 60i hdv. I brought the footage to Vegas Pro 9 and set properties to 1440×1080 tff, gausin blur, blend (de-interlace) among other things. I edit, color, crop etc.

  I then render to a preset main concept DVD Architect bluray preset (=bluray 1440×1080 25mbps…)

  I then bring it into DVDA and it seems to like the files and does not try to re encode. (good thing right?)

  Playback of the bluray leaves me with interlace artifacts but a little different than what I am used to seeing. They are wider and more “mosaic” looking. Only way I know how to describe it.

  I have been reading and it sounds like a field order thing. I have done some pan/crop on the time line and I understand that doing this to interlaced material will cause what I am seeing.

  My Question…if on a time line you pan/crop only a portion of the time line…will it throw off or can it throw off the field order for the whole time line? The reason I ask is because my entire movie when converted to BD has this interlace artifact.

  Help…many hours spent…I want this to look good.

  a single pan/crop should not affect the entire timeline, no. If it appears to continue to do so, render the offending clip to a new track, and render project from there. While this should NOT clean up the problem (which shouldn’t be existent relating to pan/crop) it is one avenue to test.

  I seemed to have been chasing a hardware/software issue. I was playing the final blueray on Power DVD 7, which after reading has issues with deinterlacing. I dont have a hardware, set top bluray player so I ran down to my friends house and tried it on his Panasonic tv and player and it plays fine…no lines or interlace artifacts. I am not totally blown away by the picture but I am generally satisfied. It seems a little “harsh” almost over sharpened. That is probably a workflow/editing issue on my end…i am still learning. Thanks for the the response.
