Interlaced video
Hello,
I am editing footage shot on a DVX100B. It was supposed to be shot at 30P but the more I look at it the more I believe it was shot 60i. Anyways, I’ve tried various capture settings and I seem to always get interlaced lines. I’ve tried capturing it at 30P (even though I’ve been told DVX 30P should be captured the same as regular 60i) and the interlaced lines are no longer there but now the image is more pixelated and fine lines have the “marching ants” look.
I’ve tried various sequence settings which basically give me two results, clean, sharp image with interlaced lines or pixelated image with no interlaced lines.
I’m sorry if this post is all over the place, I’ve done so many tests in the last few hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Change the ‘field dominance’ of both your clip and your sequence to none.

When you say the field dominance of my clip do you mean the capture settings?
If so I’ve done that and it comes down to pixelated narrow lines (No field dominance) or interlaced lines when I select a field.

No. In the browser after you have captured your clips, scroll to the right until you find the field dominance column, then change that TO None from Lower.

Unfortunately that did not work either.
I made a 30P sequence and a 60i sequence and again same problem. The more I watch the footage on the camera however the more I think it is 60i, but that confuses more cause that should make it simple to capture.
When you watch the footage in quicktime it looks interlaced which makes me think it could be a capturing issue but I’ve tried every capture preset possible.
Any suggestions would still be greatly appreciated….

Any chance that you can post one second of the raw capture?

Thanks.

No you won’t, simply open it in Quicktime, mark an in then mark an out then hit copy. Then hit command-n for a new Quicktime container then hit paste.
You can’t post here, you can post to something like yousendit.com

I just put it on youtube waiting for it to get approved i guess.
While I’m waiting which email should I send it to from yousendit.com? In case youtube is too crap.

I can’t use the youtube version, I need the raw quicktime file and you tube will change that.
When you upload to yousendit.com, you will get a URL that you can copy and paste here.
