… it’s at the top right of the COW page, in the banner, I’d assume.
Unless there’s a plugin, I’d apply a white-black radial ramp to a layer then mask it with a curved shape. This I’d use over the original graphic in screen or add mode.

… and Digieffects has revived Forge Freeform.

Hmm … 26 characters, 52 cards. All you need is a shift key, and you’re set.
Cool. 🙂

Strange.
Your layer handles (as seen in the screenshots) look like a clue, though, since they coincide with the edge of visibility at Full Res. Can you try hiding the layer that you’ve selected in the screenshots?

I edit using the DVCPROHD codec at 720p on firewire 800 drives with no problems.

Sometimes, blurring only gets you stuttery, blurry objects.
Search the COW for “judder” if the above solutions don’t work, and you’d like some more info.

Don’t forget plugins. If the original project used third-party plug-in effects, Windows versions of those plugins need to be present on the Windows box.
Sometimes Mac & Windows versions of a plugin are sold together, sometimes separately. It depends on the plugin.

Sorry — you have the right frame size at 1920×1080. Mine was a typo.

Does the client notice the judder?
… with interlacing, there’s one way to do it right (no scaling, correct field order, proper frame size, proper frame rate) and, I suppose, four ways to do it wrong:
-scale after interlacing (get lines of varying thickness)
– wrong field order (test in AE by opt-clicking in Proj window, then viewing with PageDn key — shouldn’t jump back & forth)
– wrong frame size (should be 720×486 non-square PAR, 1020×1080, square PAR)
– wrong frame rate (should be 29.97 for NTSC)If they look obviously interlaced to you, maybe you just have a really good eye. 🙂 Or maybe you’re not viewing it on an interlaced monitor? The latter would show a freeze-frame as a flicker, while a computer monitor would show it as “comb” lines (in AE, you’d only see them if you didn’t separate fields on import).
Does that help?

Uh oh. Did you try searching the COW for “judder”?
The problem may be the optical illusion of regular-shaped objects moving across the screen at a regular rate.
Anyway, try the search.
