Unfortunately, just made it worse.

Thanks for answering!
First, it’s 640 X 480 because it was shot standard (720 X 480) and then because of advice I got from this forum I changed it and also to square pixels. Over time these clips were modified using After Effects (and rendered out in Animation) and using Studio Artist (which was also Animation).

It’s the Studio Artist that makes the effect you mentioned. I did that because I’m also using animated material and it looks better with that than stark reality. It’s a step away from real — which I wanted. So the footage has been trashed to some extent. I can’t go back to the original footage.

I’ve done a deeper de-interlace with Natress and that helps the squiggles & pixelation somewhat. I would love to find a cure, but maybe there is none, because the footage is so various and strange. I CAN’T go back to the original un-modified footage. There’s too much and it’s in too many places.

You can see what I’m talking about at
https://straightlife.info/movielinks.html Some of it looks pretty good. It’s been turned into flash (by somebody else) from mostly Animation 720 X 480 codec.

Will do. That was what I was trying to do when the old one crashed. Now that it’s functioning again and I’m saving every few minutes, I’ll try to do as you suggest.

Thanks Todd. Got annoyed with Response tonAdobe thread asking me why I want square pixels!? Anyway, I seem to have found what seems like a workaround since out render of AE comp with square pixels gives
Me larger clip with black space around the image. But if I look at it at 100% in FCP7, it fills the frame in correct FCP timeline setting.

Yes, I did. Finally discovered which codec to use & in comp setting. it works but renders out a much larger clip with lots of black space around the edges. So when I bring it into fcp7 I have to bring it up to 100%% and image correctly fills window on correct timeline. Kinda sloppy but it works.

I’m using FCP7. That’s different, right?

I have premiere but I tried it and I don’t have time to learn it right now. I’ve got a bunch of stuff due end of Marc & FCP 7 is an old friend. No problems until latest wdireness & I think that’s cause when I was reconnecting the wrong clips.
