thanks for the advice. I will give it a try. I had the deinterlacing on on Apple DVD player. should I have those settings on at all times when exporting 60i? Say archiving full res HDV or what about when I go from HDV24f to mpeg2?
I found a way to fix it. If I edit my project in HDV 1080 and then copy and paste the whole project to an SD anamorphic sequence and then export that, as mpeg 2 the text looks a lot better than having compressor downres straight from the 1080 sequence.
