Prepping 1080 graphics to end up on SD DVD?

[Chris Wright]

That’s what the reinterlacer from revision does. It can split fields so that they pause where you want for good dvd menus and combined progressive effects. It’s just an option to consider if you want to keep interlaced, which will look more tv real, not film real. Just a thought.

[Jimmy Brunger] “As a side, don’t forget HD is square pixels and SD PAL/NTSC is not. Just directly scaling down GFX means you’ll get a very slight distortion when output on a TV. Watch circles are still circles..!”

Is this why, when outputting mixed resolutions (all at the same frame rate, 50fps) move plays fine, just my GFX that have been downscaled to suit 360p, have a distortion? I mean my clips play smoothly at 50fps just graphics are not, when playing out a HDTV.

I have set frame blending, this works well for only the graphics, since the video clips were originally 25fps, the video then does not play as smooth as they should. So basically, just adding my video clips into a comp set at 50fps, graphics set at 50P dont play like they should. Then using frame blending, graphics play fine, but know there is to much motion blur in the video.
