Help, video is jerky only when scene is moving

[beachbum]

The still images play fine. When the camera pans to show movement the background seems to be really fuzzy.

It is a tv show I captured from TV. I used CCE (newest trial version)
I first assumed it was the order of the fields, but I tested it using the first field first and without that box checked. I also did a test before I did the second conversion and those scenes played perfectly on my dvd...however when I burned the complete show it turned out the same as the first. So I assumed it was the speed I burned it at and burned another one at 4x speed. The results all came out the same, good picture during still scenes, but during movement it became very jerky.

I converted the file to an SVCD using mpeg2 one pass vbr
Q=60, Min=500, Max=2500

Used Vcd easy (Svcd checked) to get a bin file and burned with Nero.

I've converted this show before and others and have never faced this problem.

I'm clueless as to why when I did a test it was fine, but when I convert the whole show it came out the same as the first one I converted. It also seems to play fine on my computer using powervcr.

I have no clue what's wrong any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Probably encoding artifacts due to lower bitrates and interlaced video...

I've had this problem myself... Tried higher bitrates (3000kbps) but artifacts still visible. That's why I switched to DVD.

Problem is that with high panning velocity (eg. moving camera fast in horizontal direction) interlaced lines (high frequency signals in video) are difficult for the encoder to encode (MPEG is officially not intend for interlaced video, but for progressive video).

Just try higher bitrates or try to de-interlace with TMPGEnc.
