    Hi Pierre.

    Most of my shooting is done with Sony’s HDV camera range, either the Z1E or A1E. Im kind of at a loss what to shoot at exactly, HD or SD, then which settings to use [remember im in the uk, so I dont shoot ntsc]. As far as I can tell [the equipment is at uni, i dont have it here so its kinda hard remembering things], I cant shoot progressive. So Im fairly sure my footage can only be interlaced.
    Most of the work I’ll do will end up on DVD, so I’d prefer it to look as crisp as possible, thus deinterlaced Im guessing is the way to go.

    So setting up the deinterlacing is just a simple, import footage with no fields, deinterlace with plug in, render out with no fields – voilla done?

    Ok, I’ll try that one instead, I was trying to use Digital Anarchy’s Gradient tool.
    Perhaps a screenshot to me may be more ideal?

    Yo, Im just having one of those dumb moments, its late and all that.
    I appreciate you helping a temporarily spasicated guy here, the thing is its just bluring the whole layer.
    Its driving me nuts.

    Yeah I did read that part but what is the trick with a gradient to make use of this ? [where do I put it? – do I make another adjustment layer, if so – is there anything else I should be doing to it?]

    Ok, its definatly something to do with steadymove pro, because I just rendered out the footage without any effects and interlaced it both ends, and one with just the interlaced import…both look fine, hard to tell if the 2nd one is slightly blurry or not because its a fast moving shot [doh].

    Im going to try another steading plug in.
