  • Exporting as Progressive Scan

    Posted by Tyler Leisher on January 23, 2008 at 7:07 pm

    Hi, I’m trying to export my video as a progressive scan .mov (or anything for that matter) but when I do that it gives some parts of the video jagged edges.. and other times it will not deinterlace the graphics that are overlayed onto it.

    Is there any easier way to just export as progressive scan, without losing the quality and getting these jagged edges? In Adobe Premiere or Sony Vegas we can export to progressive scan avi just fine without any problems. But the work flow of the company is moving towards Macs and Final Cut Pro.

    Well what is your source? Sounds like 30fps video?

    I’m pretty sure it’s 60i. We shooting on Mini DV and DVCam.

    We’re shooting from a Panasonic DVX100B.

    Well obviously you’re not working with naturally progressive video, so it takes some computer magic to “fake” a progressive image.

    FCP doesn’t really have a decent option to do this out of the box, but Compressor has some decent de-interlacing options available. I can’t be much help honestly, I don’t deal much with interlace formats going progressive except postings to the web (in which case I use compressor with a de-interlace option turned on)

    Compressor works pretty well, there’s also revision fields kit (a personal fave) and Nattress smart deinterlacer.
