    Hi all,

    I have a few PAL movies which I am going to convert to NTSC DVDs. The question is, all of them are PROGRESSIVE. Should I leave them as progressive when I convert them to NTSC or should I convert them to INTERLACED?

    Thanks for any help on this.

    If they are Progressive, keep them progressive. If they are Interlaced, keep them interlaced.

    If they are interlaced, make sure you encode with the correct field order first!

    Play it on a PC in a program that does not have deinterlace filters. I open my files in my editor (Womble MPEG-VCR) and look for combing.
