It does sound like the fields are getting swapped around somewhere – maybe after effects is incorectly interpreting the footage your importing… I’ve seen it auto detect fields wrong before.
In Final Cut try adding the shift fields filter to your project, (it’s under video) try it at -1 and at +1. If that solves your problem then it’s definately a fields issue.

Plus if you download one of those trailers, dump it onto an uncompressed SD timeline, hit render, then watch it back you could swear that you were watching a capture off digi…
Wonder how good it would look if I re-encoded it to mpeg-2 for a dvd burn, hmmm may have to try that… 🙂

It’s a UK health and safety law.
Any programme or event that has flashing lights/flash photography/strobe lighting has to have a warning as this can trigger photosensitive epilepsy in some individuals. You see signs for this outside some theatre shows as well. I’ve seen a crazy stobe effect on some footage with a lot of papperazi taking flash photos.

” Flicker sensitive epilepsy is a rare condition which may be triggered by a variety of environmental factors of which the television is the most potent source.”

Turning waveforms on and off is a lovely thing…

Hmmm,
you could always set the preferences so that your stills duration is only 1 frame. You could then import a folder select all the stills and drop them on a timeline. The settings for stills duration is in the user preferences menu, under the editing tab.

Easiest way to do this is to use Quicktime, and not Final Cut…
Open Quicktime and then choose “open image sequence” from the file menu. That should let you create a movie that you can then bring into Final Cut as one clip.

I use Cyberduck, which I think is pretty good. Plus it’s free!

Thanks for the thoughts guys. I’m perfectly willing to wait paitently for a conversion if it gets rid of the blur, but not if there’s no advantage over Graeme’s filter then my response is “meh.”
Anybody done any direct compressor 1 vs compressor 2 comparisons yet?

Try an audio mixdown before you export your audio. It’s under the sequence menu > render > mixdown
