    hi,
    rendering some video footage to mpg-2 dvd format (i.e. using premiere, or vegas), gives horizontal stipes allong the whole screen.

    see picture below for details

    does anyone know a resolution for this?

    thanks

    It looks like the interlacing.
    Assuming the source was interlaced,
    it should be encoded to mpeg as interlaced and then when viewed on a
    TV it will be taken care of.

    When viewed on a PC monitor and stepped through the frames with motion,
    you will see similar to your sample image.

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    Source us uncompressed DV movie captured through firewire. Not sure if this is interlaced or not? (just starting out with editing my home movies)

    It is my intention to make some compilations and put them on a DVD to watch on the TV. So i understand that it should be encoded as interlaced. Will try tonight to see the result of this.

    on the otherhand, what happens if i de-interlace the movie? On the computerscreen, i guess the horizontal stipes disapear, but will this be also on the TV? or will the video quality decrease by de-interlacing?

    thanks
    Patrick

    Open the source in virtualdub and find a section with movement.
    Look at it one frame at a time. Do you see that combing effect?
    Also look at file information,. What is the frame rate and resolution?
