    Hi
    i recently fimled using the panasonic hpx500 in 720 50p setting. i am editing the footage in cs3 on the 720 50p timeline. when i export to standard def dvd and there is a significant loss in quality especially with movement. i dont tick the deinterlace box on export. Im using the premier media encoder to crate the DVD, is there anything that i am doing wrong.
    i would appreciate any help on this.

    cheers

    I no longer use Premiere to downconvert DVCPro HD. I use After Effects instead. I find the resulting quality much more pleasing. When you say quality during movement, are you referring to jagginess or softeness ?

    Given that the DVD format doesn’t support 50p, I’m not sure how well Premiere does in the conversion to 25p (certainely sounds like an easy one).

    thanks for your response vince.
    The image is both soft when there is movement and slightly jagged. would you suggest that i edit in premier 720 50p export the project to After effects and render out as MPEG 2 from there.

    As much information would be greatly appreciated as this is all quite new to me.

    Thanks again

    Can you post some sample output somewhere so I can look at it?

    It might be worth trying a test going from 50P to 25i. You would gain temporal resolution (50 fields/sec) with a trade off of less spatial resolution.
