    In a bone head move, I converted mpeg4 footage (not realizing it was progressive) to DV interlaced so I could edit realitime with Premier. After I edited and exported the sequence as an mpeg2 for DVD authoring, needless to say it looked horrible. I finally realized what had happened (native progressive edited in a DV NTSC interlaced project), so can I just re-encode the finished experted AVI movie back into a progressive format to make the footage look smooth again?

    What about relinking the original footage in your edit. Converting back will further degrade resolution, but it will certainly get rid of the interlacing lines.
