I have just completed a trial capture and output to widescreen SD / DVD and have horrendous interlacing "combs" in the picture whenever there is movement.
Here's what I did:
1. Shot on Z1 1080i PAL HDV 16:9
2. Captured with Cineform HD Link
3. Rendered in Vegas to MPEG2 Widescreen for DVD
4. Created widescreen DVD with DVDA
The interlacing artifacts were evident from capture onwards, and stayed there right through to displaying the DVD on TV.
I guess the question may revolve around the point at which the change from Upper field first to lower field first should be made, either as Project Properties or as part of a Render.
I've read DSE's HDV book, done several searches but can't nail down where I'm going wrong.
Workflow tips appreciated ...
