lookin for jimmalenko

[davemcg37]

i got a problem an its this:
i got a coupla files one with a framerate of 23.976 the pther with 29.97, both are mpegs. when i try to encode em, the resulting files come out with horizontal lines comin outta the moving images. im pretty sure this is somathin to do with interlacing. how do i correct this annoyance using tmpgenc plus? thanx

[Richard_G]

You don't. You correct it by viewing it on a TV as it was intended.

[canadateck]

Try playing the file with WinDVD it handles interlacing well,and should give you an idea what the final Video will look like on TV.

[davemcg37]

so richard if i burn this to disc and play it on my tv itll be ok?

[canadateck]

Most cases yes it will.

[Richard_G]

Assuming the original problem is interlacing.

[jimmalenko]

Who's looking for me ?

It does sound like interlacing:



Does it look something like that ?

As mentioned, if you're watching on a TV or through PowerDVD or WinDVD, everything will be fine.

[davemcg37]

yup looks like that 'cept maybe a bit more pronounced and the lines only become apparent when theres motion in the scene. ive burned to the file to disc and ots still there when i play in my dvd player. any ideas how i can correct this? maybe run the file thru tmpgenc again and select deinterlace?

[jimmalenko]

Don't select deinterlace if you're planning to watch on a TV. I think it's either interlacing, or perhaps you have the wrong field order selected, because this tends to only show up when there's movement, whereas interlacing shows up even when the scene is still.

im redoing the file with the field order reversed ill let u know how it turns out

Good luck!

[davemcg37]

thanx for ur help jimmalenko...you were spot on it worked a treat, i know where to come to next time!

[jimmalenko]

So it was field order then ?

[davemcg37]

yes, changed the field order and hey presto...no more lines. thanks again bro

[freebird73717]

The next time you have a field order problem you can just use restream on the video portion ot the file to change the field order. Only takes a few minutes then just multiplex your new video file with the audio and your ready to author!
