  • How to deinterlace in 1440×1080 resolution?

    Posted by Damien Bennecks on May 31, 2012 at 7:31 pm

    I’ve been reading a lot about deinterlacing videos but unfortunately most topics are for professionals and I don’t understand much of them.

    I just need an easy method to deinterlace my material – it doesn’t have to look great, I just want to get rid of “combs”. What I found out, the easiest method is to set “Progressive” in AP export options and it automatically makes your video deinterlaced. It works for me in certain resolutions but now I need to export my video to 1440×1080 resolution. And when I set these values, “Field order” goes inactive so I can’t choose “Progressive” and in result, AP gives me interlaced file.

    I also found another method – I save the finished material in Adobe Premiere and than I import it in After Effects. Then I apply “Reduce Interlace Flicker” effect to the whole sequence from AP file, I set the value to 1.6 and that’s it. The result is quite satisfying but there is one problem. It takes a very long time to render a video with this effect – almost two times longer than without it.

    I also know I can deinterlace my footage by right clicking on every single clip and choosing “Field options”>”Always deinterlace”. But since my material consists of hundreds short clips, it’s not the best idea.

    I would be thankful for any advice for the beginner like me…

    Your best bet:
    If you already have the material shot in interlace:

    Edit interlaced.

    Exporting to Bluray? Keep Interlaced.
    Exporting to DVD Keep Interlaced.

    Exporting to Web DE-interlace here!

    Otherwise – shoot progressive.

    That doesn’t help me much… I have the material already shot in interlace and I just want to export it to deinterlaced file 1440×1080. Is it possible or not?

    But how if there is no option to deinterlace? As far as I know I can deinterlace by setting Progressive field order, but this option goes inacvtive with resolution 1440×1080.

    What are you trying to make a mp4? WMV? mov?
    Delivery for what?
    Web?
    PowerPoint?

    You select Progressive in AME when compressing to your deliverable.

    Sorry, I should have written it before. I need Mp4 file.
    It look like this:

    In the Summary section, there is info that it is de-interlaced, but I get a file with very visible “combs”. Am I doing something wrong?

    According to your pic:

    The footage is already progressive. Did you shoot 25p? You may not even have interlaced footage to begin with.

    Please post the full specs listed in the project on your raw clips.

    Take a small piece of footage you see combs in the movement.
    Go to the raw footage in the project.
    Drop it on the “Make new sequence matching clip” icon on the both.
    Export to AME and then make your mp4. Choose progressive for the output.

    Now this is in CS5 and higher I believe.
