Cannot get rid of the horizontal lines (field order or interlacing?)...

OK- I have footage which is 25fps DV Pal 720/576 (was shot on tape, 4:3 letterboxed), lower field/even which I am editing into a short 25 second sequence which needs to be 16:9 (as my final project will be that, and this footage/sequence is the only 4:3 one in the ten to be used).
The current sequence I have worked in is showing up as 25fps DVCPRO Pal 1280/720 also lower field/even and it is working OK (NO idea how!) except for the clips I am shrinking for a multiple screen section- they are shrunk to 45% and quite interlaced looking- meaning that I am seeing quite bad horizontal lines even in the playing back of the sequence, before export.
Notably one clip is FINE- it is different in that it has been "grown" to 180% because of the fact that it was 4:3 letterboxed and I needed it to appear 16:9. I see no interlacing/field order issue...
What do I need to do in order to "fix" this now that I have a gorgeous sequence and cannot export it to look like anything decent?
I feel I do NOT understand the settings I should set up for capture, working and export- I am just stabbing in the dark here. I guess a problem I have is that while I learn super fast when shown to do something I don't make the connection when reading manuals well. In other words- if it is not a response to an issue I have I cannot tell that it is the answer I seek. I am so despondent.
Ideally I would need to be able to fix the mess as the work I have done is long and hard (I am not really a bad editor- creative but clueless when it comes to setting things up right, it would seem!). Please and many, many thanks.

Thanks for that. It was a horrible blow as he had just been nominated for his first BAFTA and I was so hopeful that he would take me on as an apprentice...
OK- the issue will be one most students creating showreels will encountering as we don't tend to shoot ideal footage, on different cameras we don't "know", and certainly don't have a say about how it is ingested. So it is a case of doing the best we can with what we have.
I ended up dealing with it by using Compressor to "reconform" the footage I was using and to also use a 30%/45% scale-down of each of them and made a multi-clip collage of the material. The "problems" are almost lost in the scaling down, so I am OK with it.
Of course there is still the problem that if I move from the college's Avid system to my home set up of Final Cut Pro I get very annoying issues also with the Avid's exports (QT6) showing up as 5:4 instead of the 16:9 it was exported as!

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store.

If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.

    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • CANNOT GET RID OF THE SPINNING BALL OF DEATH

    CANNOT GET RID OF THE SPINNING BALL OF DEATH.  TRIED MANY FORUMS AND NOTHING FROM APPLE, WHO DO NOT SEEM TO CARE!

    Its actually the spinning ball of cool your jets while I am doing something -- Apple used to use a picture of a wrist watch - which was a better way of saying it.
    I get the beach ball when starting up Photoshop - and in same when going into functions that are in VM or not open because I don't use them that much.
    Other than that - you haven't stated what the problem is.

  • When capturing video; how do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    When capturing video; How do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    s.haider
    You have Canon ZR950 mini DV Camcorder, why not make a firewire connection and do DV data capture into the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Capture Window?
    Do you have any reference for what you are attempting to do or is this a creation of your own? Could you confirm what you describe as "just capturing video".
    a. From your information, you are doing Get Media/Webcam or WDM Device with the Capture Window showing the Capturing Device as "Dazzle DVD 100 Video Device". What type of connection are you making between the Canon ZR950 and the Dazzle DVD 100 and the computer?
    b. What exactly do you expect to be putting on the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Timeline from this capture...DV AVI or something else?
    Coming from the perspective of Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 known issues, I would ask you to consider:
    a. Remove the check mark next to AutoAnalyzer in the Capture window. Even if you were doing this Capture the "usual way", that is highly recommended.
    b. Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General, and compare your results with and without a check mark next to enable GPU playback. As a cross reference, please go to Edit Header/Effects/Video Effects and detemine if there is a category of Effects named GPU Effects. Do the same thing for Edit Header/Transitions/Video Transitions and determine if there is a category of Transitions named GPU Transitions.
    And, the general drill for all users of Premiere Elements 8.0
    a. Are you working with the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer Features turned Off?
    See Premiere Elements workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/General for background rendering option and Elements Organizer workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer Options for AutoAnalzyer options.
    b. Are you working from the 8.0.1 Update version of the program?
    Please consider.
    We will be watching for the outcome.
    Thank you.

    Hi
    You need to add that following rule to your CSS file:
    body {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;

  • How to get rid of the reference lines on the front panel

    I forgot how I created a couple of horizontal and vertical reference lines on the front panel. It looks like the origin lines on the front panel.

  • How do I get rid of the dotted line on right side of bounding box

    Ever since I upgraded to CS5, I seem to have a broken dotted line along the right side of the bounding box of the png logo that was created for my company.  It wasn't there before. I've gone back to my original back up of the logo and this broken line is in all the versions now.
    Whenever I use the artwork a single dash/dotted line is left on the far right, where the right vertical line of the bounding box would have been. You can see it in the image below on the right.  Its a faint white line but when printed on a banner its stark white.  The line falls just above the last "A" in Alberta.
    I can use Illustrator and Photoshop basics and but have trouble when I get into problems like this.
    Can anyone help me figure out why its there and how to get rid of it?
    I would appreciate any help!
    Thanks.

    Wade and Monica,
    Thanks for your help.
    Wade, it hit me when you asked "why is it a png" file and I realized that I was using the wrong file.  Sometimes its hard to see the forest for the trees!  Problem for banner artwork fixed and I have now used the correct logo file so no more dotted line.
    The dotted line only appears on the the png version of the logo.  There's no coloured background on the logo file.  She gave me the file as both an eps and a png file. I'm pretty sure she created the logo in Illustrator.  I've been using the png file for the website, which is what I thought it worked well for.  And the eps one for my print materials.
    I have no clue why I grabbed the png instead of the eps logo file I usually use, but thanks for pointing out the obvious since I wasted time trying to fix it and was getting very frustrated at what had suddenly gone "wrong".
    I still have that dotted line on the png file of the logo but I'll have to figure that out another day.
    Thanks again!
