  • Scan Lines when clip running only

    Posted by Dorian Weber on April 20, 2019 at 2:32 am

    Hello,
    you guys have always been very helpful when I encountered problems.
    Here is something I like to know:
    For special effect clips, I get a perfect clip, on a single frame (when it stops) but when it runs, I get a lot of…. I would call them- scan lines.
    Is there any way to remove those?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Dorian

    If your footage is interlaced, the first thing I would check is sequence settings. NTSC analog SD should be lower field first for the interlace, and ATSC 1080i HD should be upper field first.

    System:
    Dell Precision T7600 (x2)
    Win 7 64-bit
    32GB RAM
    Adobe CC 2017.1 (as of 8/2017)
    256GB SSD system drive
    4 internal media drives RAID 5
    Typically cutting short form from UHD MP4, HD MP4, and HD P2 MXF.

    thank you Jon, I tried both, but still the same.
    Actually the footage is progressive. With some transcoding I get a very interesting effect. It looks good on a single frame, but when I run it it has lots of horizontal lines accross.
    Is there any way to remove those with one of the zig filters in Premier or After Effects?

    Thanks

    Hmm. What is your original footage (container and codec)? And what are you transcoding to (container and codec)?

    System:

    Can you post an image of this? Seeing it would go a long way in helping you. Could be a few different things.

    I think, I found the problem: because I exported it into Premier. This seem to have added the scanlines. Now I drag it direct into Media encoder, and it comes out very well.
    I only found out when I wanted to upload a new encoded clip to show you.

    Problem solved.

    Thanks guys for your offer to help me.
