problem with export of 24p footage
I am having problems with horizontal lines appearing when I export a quicktime movie. I have tired a deinterlace filter but that does not seem to do the trick. Is there anything I can do to get rid of these lines? I am running fcp5 on a g5. The footage was shot on a dvx100a on 24p mode and I am editing on a 30fps timeline.
Thanks,
A.R.

Shooting 24p mode and editing in a 30fps sequence (which you should) will give you interlaced frames here and there… there’s actually a pattern to it. Those are the frames that are created by combining the 24 progressive frames into a 30 count.
There’s no way to get rid of them except to bring the original media into Cinema Tools and remove the 3.2 cadence.
So — two things that might be happening from what you describe…
1) You are seeing the interlaced frames of the pulldown cadence.
2) You’ve got LOTS of motion in the footage and the Progressive nature of the other frames is causing you to see what I call Jumps… what you might be calling horizontal lines.I feel it’s more 1 than 2.
Does this answer your question?

yes captain, it does answer my question. I was just hoping for a filter or button miracle that I was missing.
Thanks,
