To be clear, I have not used the Deinterlace filter inside of FCP, this problem is pretty much contained in compressor where i found the deinterlacing filter in one of the settings.
The sequences are in HDV1080i. It just seems as if compressor is applying the deinterlacing filter anytime the target is a SD DVD and I can’t seem to get it to stop.
I will continue to try some of these ideas, thanks for your help
