Gary, sounds great! I’ve visited Flickos in past but at the time they were completely HW based. Can you email me at tarthur@nc.rr.com with details? Small world, thanks for the post. Tim

miniDV, standard (not HD), in 16:9 mode. (i no longer have the model number for it but can get it if that is key.) when i capture via vegas, my source material in “project media” looks fine, no visually detectable interlacing.

(pardon my delay in post replies…. I’m having a problem with my account on creative cow for some reason and have submitted a request to eric.)

thanks again, tim

i don’t know what you mean by “intermediate steps”. i select the project to render (or of late, a portion of a project for my testing purposes), and then use the rendered product. if not happy with it, i delete or rename, and then render again on subsequent attempts. I have tried everything, even changing my project profile to different settings. i’m pretty sure i have hit my ceiling of knowledge but have got to believe that someone has experienced this before and has figured it out somehow.

thank you again for suggestions.

Thanks for the attention. They’ve looked good to me to, but not now. I was using a Sony camcorder, very good quality but still not a prosumer model I recognize. I see the source file that Vegas captured and it looks fine (well except for the color mgt), and in live preview mode (seen while editing), it looks fine, but when I render, whoa, it is interlaced.

I’m on Vegas 7.0.

I would be glad to send a snippet of my source file to someone.
