kallend 2,027 #1 March 31, 2004 I still have problems in Premiere (mostly when I switch between NTSC and PAL) with funny interlacing artifacts. Is there a primer on the web somewhere that talks in detail about video specs, interlacing (when you should and shouldn't turn it off), etc, etc.? Or a really good Premiere primer (better than the stuff than comes with Premiere which doesn't explain very much).... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

3ringheathen 0 #2 April 1, 2004 I found this commercial link: http://www.videoguys.com/techsupp.htm immensely useful for fixing bugs in my EditDV software. They have some Premier info as well, although I don't know if any of it addresses your problem. -Josh If you have time to panic, you have time to do something more productive. -Me* *Ron has accused me of plagiarizing this quote.

jmfreefly 0 #3 April 1, 2004 What do you mean "Switching between"? As in having a PAL clip and then a NTSC clip? Or just switching between projects, where one is PAL and the other is NTSC? Here is a link that compares the two standards PAL vs. NTSC Basically, there are two issues: 1) resolution and 2) frame rate. Translating between the two always involves some manipulation of the source (fabrication of data through interpolation). Basically, if you are playing on a normal TV (Not HDTV 480p or 720p), then you want the output to be interlaced. If you try to play a progressive source on a TV, it will look strange. j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Yes - I made a PAL DVD for my brother who lives in Europe, and suddenly I had funny effects that didn't go away when I went back to NTSC for that same project. I guess I made an inadvertant change to something, but it beats me what it might be!... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

I know in AVID, the project settings are pretty significant, and not easily swapped -- I would have to just re-create a new project in PAL or NTSC. But I guess there is a larger question of what is the native format of the footage (Pal or ntsc)? The conversion can sometimes be clunky. (maybe the source of your problem (??)). j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
