    I’m getting horrible motion artifacting/interlacing in Resolve. I’m not seeing in my broadcast monitor in FCP7. Is there a setting that I’m missing? I added a motion blur, but it’s still there even when I turn it off.

    What is the resolution of your source material, and what file type are you using? Is it progressive or interlaced? What are the project timeline settings?

    Footage is ProRes 422 1080i 29.97. The sequence is 1080 as well.

    Two options if you are on 12.5 Studio. De-interlace in clip attributes, or use the Project settings, master project settings, “enable video field processing” which is also available in the no cost version.

    I tried the “enable video field processing” and it didn’t help.

    I found the clip attributes window in the Media tab, but didn’t see a de-interlace option.

    I am working on 12.5 studio.

    Seems that the motion blur is causing the problem. If I render out the clips with field rendering checked and no motion blur at all, everything is fine. Any motion blur (with or without field rendering) causes the problem. I guess I’ll have to add motion blur in FCP.

    There is a checkbox in the bottom section of the video tab of clip attributes to de-interlace the clip.

    does the deinterlace checkbox work efficiently for deinterlacing footage that was shot interlaced?
    It seems a rather simple solutuion

    That’s what it’s designed for

    Working in R12.5.1 Studio with some DV footage that is part of a 1080i sequence. When I change the field dominance of the clip it has no change. Motion in the shot appears to have the fields reversed. It is my understanding that DV is Lower Field dominant and HD 59.94i is Upper Field dominant. Seems to make things more complicated.

    The De-Interlace box is greyed out.

    I am able to view the footage in FCPX with proper field interpolation in an HD 1080i timeline. How can I get R12 Studio to work with these files properly?
