  • Avid and Graphics interlacing issue

    Posted by Michael Uss on June 14, 2009 at 7:46 pm

    Hello Anybody,

    I have a problem with interlacing (jaggies?) when I output my projects. I am making them in Photoshop 6.0 at 600 pixels per inch, RGB color, 16×9 inches. Whenever I input the graphic and put motion on it I get the interlacing issue. Even when I output with the “progressive” and “De-interlace source” boxes checked.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Couple of potential answers here, but the first question is do you have interlace issues if you play it without any motion added?

    If not, then your import is good and you move on to the other issues.

    1: To move the footage are you blowing it up? If so that can cause issues and I would recommend using the built in Pan and Zoom effect or better yet buy “Moving Picture” by Stage tools. https://www.stagetools.com

    2: The other gotcha is fine lines in the graphic. If you are working in SD, and your lines are too fine, they can cause shimmering issues when moved around.
