  • Transform intrelaced video DV,HDV to Progressive

    Hello community,

    I am using a Canon HV30 (Pal edition) which is HDV (Tape Camera) and recording footage mainly to HDV 50i and sometimes in the past DV 50i. There is no progressive setting though… 🙁

    Then using firewire capture method and when it has to do for HDV capture the camera delivers a brilliant .Μ2Τ for each clip. I noticed that when it has to do with HDV (m2t file) is -always- interlaced [Top Field First] in 1440×1080 resolution 50i. In a about same process i am capturing DV (Standard resolution) it delivers .AVI files that are -always- interlaced [Bottom Field First] in 720×576 Resolution. (Both types recorded in 16:9 Wide setting)

    I also have a 5D MarkII with older firmware witch records at full HD Video 25Fps delivers .mov (mpeg4/avc) and it is always progressive mode in 25p.

    My challenge is to mix in the same roll these three different types of footage and have an acceptable final result in progressive mode, ignoring the final resolution assume that it will be the lowest 720×576, so in a manner that i downgrade all footage to the minimum res is it possible to avoid ghosting or these unwanted parallel lines from the interlaced videos?

    Tried to create seperate sequences for each type, and work with them in individually, then tried to import all sequences (the two intrelaced bottom and upper and the progressive) into a final sequence with progressive setting at 25p and 720×576 custom but the result was awful exporting to h/264 – mp4 at about 15mbps.

    PS: Tried also to select “always de-interlace” option on the source interlaced sequences and the result was ever worse on export… ghosting like stamps!!! I created the dream effect for free 🙂

    Is there any $^#^%# way to transform an interlaced video into progressive and look like a real progressive video footage?

    Any thoughts would be appreciative,
    Kiriakos
