    I asked this question in another thread but I think it got lost in the mix so I’m going to throw it out there again.

    I’ve never had this question answered to where I understand it. Probably a malfunction at my end.

    Does it matter what kind of “TV” you are renderering for? A lot of comments are made that use interlaced for TV and progressive for computer monitors. But are not TVs becoming more like computer monitors? Does it matter if your final project is going to be viewed on a CRT tv or on an LCD or plasma tv? Do you render differently. What if you do not know and all you know is that it is for TV viewing?

    Thanks for all the time you give to this and

    Yes, it can matter. But you’re pretty safe if you use the presets.

    We use the DVD presets for most of our stuff (modified to CBR), but when we need to show it on the web we’ll use .wmv. I honestly can’t tell you what these presets do with interlacing and I really don’t care.

    Obviously, if you knew the exact display method you could customize more, but I doubt you’ll see any great improvement.
