Jason McKelvey Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I had our editor do some frame grabs from some footage I shot with the 900. It was in 24P with V.RES set to INTRLCE because we don't do film-outs. I expected the frame grabs to look like film frame grabs... like a still photo. Instead, even with my subject perfectly still, there was interlace artifacts on the edge of his nose... like a jagged edge. Is this because of the V.RES setting? Will setting this to PROG make a difference? When I freeze my DVD player, it looks like a clean frame grab. Is there a way to get this type of performance out of our 900?

Premium Member John Ealer Posted October 7, 2004 Premium Member Share Posted October 7, 2004 Even if you shoot 24p, you're still going to have judder from the 3:2 pulldown if you capture your footage at 29.97. What I think you're looking at is simply that. If you want to have completely clean stills, remove the pulldown in your edit box and work in a 24p timeline. Changing to V.RES PROGRESSIVE wouldn't affect these issues at all, just potentially introduce another source of aliasing. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob van Gelder Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Photoshop -- select "filters" ----> video ----> de-interlace ----> voilá :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason McKelvey Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 Thanks, one more question; how then do the freeze frames on my DVD player look sharp and not interlaced, even though I use a standard CRT TV? Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted October 8, 2004 Premium Member Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hi, Because your DVD player is deinterlacing them. Most digital video devices have the responsibility of delacing freeze frames so they don't flicker like mad between one field and the previous one.
