How to export h.264 interlaced video??

hi, my situation is the following: i have a full hd (1920x1080i50) camcorder which gives me just interlaced video clips with 50 half frames per second in AVCHD. i dont want to deinterlace the material, cause it taks too much time, the quality looses and the filesize is doubled (if i want to keep every frame).
i want to cut it with imovie 08 and then export it back into h.264 in interlaced format. (because i want to burn it to a data-dvd and play it in a playstation3. and h.264 is the only full hd format, which the ps3 is able to play, i think).
but in the export preferences i cannot choose between the options "interlaced" or "progressive". and the export with quicktime as h.264 or mpeg-4 is always in progressive mode, ignoring the interlaced material. the result is a progressive video with 25 full frames per second showing 2 half frames mixed together in one frame with the typical "interlaced-lines-error" or in germany we are talking about the "picket-fence-effect". it seemes that imovie does not identyfy the interlaced video automatically.
the imported videos from the camera are definately imported by imovie as interlaced video. i can check it in the quicktime player by turning on the "deinterlace"-option. quicktime playes the video deinterlaced, the "picket-fence-effect" dissapears. if i do it with a exported h.264 videofile from imovie, nothing happens when i turn the "deinterlace"-option on. the "picket-fence-effect" does not dissapear.
today i already loaded the quicktime update, but i still can not export in mpeg4/h264 interlace.
can somebody help me?? i spent already several days with exporting, searching the internet and burning dvd-rs.
thanks

You should give MPEG Streamclip a try:

In this program, interlace/deinterlace is an option for MPEG-4 conversions, although I haven't used it myself.

    you can see google/youtube says 2160p (2160p: 3840x2160), as 4k on their website. so if thats what they use for that setting, they will probably convert your 4096x2304 to 3840x2160 anyways. it also makes sense if thats a limitation of h264, they would use that resolution for 60fps too.

  • How to export H.264 in a .MOV container in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014?

    Hi!
    I'm editing video on a regular basis, and the broadcasting network I'm working with is asking for an H.264 video in a .MOV file format.  I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and love it, but I cannot seem to find the option to export H.264 in a Quicktime video format.  Additionally, they want the video in interlaced format, but there is no 720i option.
    Assistance is greatly appreciated!

    As the image to the right shows, I have no h.264 option.
    Would HandBrake be a good way to encode in h.264 and export to .mov?  I'd really like to do it directly from Premiere, but HandBrake is as good a solution as any...

  • Stair-stepping artifacts when exporting H.264 426x240 video for web

    I'm trying to export a 16:9 video clip for web using H.264 compression at 426x240 resolution from compressor using square pixel aspect ratio. No matter what bit rate I set it at -- 600kbps-6,000kbps I still get these really jagged edges. Even though my source is DV, the original file does not have anything close to this; also I have never had this issue before. One other thing to note is that if I export at full resolution H.264 -- 640x360, I don't get any stair-stepping.
    Here is a frame grab of the video with the problem:
    http://salsunproductions.com/misc/crapy_artifacts-h264-frame.jpg
    You can download a video clip of it here (data rate is around 600-700kbps):
    http://salsunproductions.com/misc/crapy_artifacts-h264.mov
    I'm also noticing some sort of horizontal lines in the artifacts?? This is progressive scan footage shot on a DVX100B 24pA (and captured properly w/2:3:3:2 pull down removal, the original file doesn't have this)
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. This is getting really annoying having to export huge files...
    PS: I'm using Compressor v3.0.2

    It could be some scaling artifact. Make your stream progressive using frame controls (stay away from the best setting) and that should help.

  • How to achieve good non-interlaced video using compressor (newbie question)

    Dear all,
    I am completely at sea but I know that I have to use the "none" setting for the field order and cannot for the life of me work this out.
    Now- I usually export direct from Final Cut Pro (H.264, best quality etc etc) but this time the exported QT file just will not de-interlace (not my footage but I have to deliver the edit), come **** or high water.
    So- a kind soul said to use Compressor... And to not use any field ordering.
    But HOW? I watched videos, sought to use the instructions given me here but am still totally lost.
    What I did:
    1. Launched Compressor,
    2. Dragged in the self-contained reference QT file from my desktop,
    3. Picked a setting (H.264 which has field reordering ON by default),
    4. Dropped the "setting" into the blue field to right of clip thumb,
    5. Double-clicked the "setting" and then-
    6. picked the "Encoder" button, as instructed but cannot change the Field Order.
    Because Compressor is completely new to me I don't know if I ought to NOT pick a setting until I have it how I want it, saved it as a "custom setting" and THEN bring it into the project or if I am to do it once brought in to the project. Either way- how to change the field order to "none". Or should I pick a de-interlace filter? Just that I have been looking and testing and nothing I do creates a de-interlaced final file.
    All the tutorial videos I have watched (erm- about 5 now) go over exporting and how to pick your settings from those which exist but what I need to know is how to change a setting to suit (ie get rid of the evil interlacing).
    I am hoping someone here can give me a very simple step by step or point me in the direction of one.

    Let me see if I can wrap my head around what you're trying to do. You started with an HD timeline 1280 x 720 (16:9). Into this you want to add your SD PAL clips, shrunk down for a picture in picture effect (a completely different concept from multicam.) But your shrunk down clips have nasty interlacing, and the one clip which was meant to be full frame looks like rubbish, right? Sorry but there's no way to blow a clip up 180% and have it look even halfway decent. At least not in FCP. Compressor has an upscale algorithm, available in the same Frame Controls tab where you did the de-interlacing, which can give you somewhat better results. There's also a plug-in from Red Giant called Instant HD which may or may not yield better results than Compressor.
    Here's where you went wrong. The clips to be shrunk should have been deinterlaced before bringing them into FCP, and into your sequence. Go ahead and do this, using the ProRes 422 setting, with the deinterlacing technique from before.
    Your sequence in FCP is fine, except that you want to change its compressor to ProRes 422 so that it matches your newly imported de-interlaced clips.
    You want to de-interlace your P2 1080i clips beforehand as well. The other change to make to your sequence is to change Field Dominance to None.
    If you've already finished your edit, you can still do all of the de-interlacing, outputting all of the results to a new folder. But you have to do every source clip in its entirety if you want to re-link to retain your edit.
    When Compressor's done - this will probably take all night - open your FCP project, select all the source clips, right-click and choose Reconnect Media. Locate the newly de-interlaced ProRes clips and Connect.
    Then you only need to export your sequence as a Quicktime Movie, Current Settings, Self-contained. This will give you a pristine master which will play fine on your computer, and from which you may then use Compressor to create a web or dvd version as needed.

  • Export settings for Interlaced video

    Hi there,
    I am looking to export a short movie, made entirely in Premiere Pro 6 - with many effects like colour correction.
    My footage is 1080i 25fps, once I select the preset under H.264 HD 1920x1080i 25 I get a standard set of setting but my file comes to 4.2gb. The VBR is set to 32 with max at 40.
    Are these the best determined settings? If I lowered the bit rate to 20, it lowers it to 2gb but will i retain the same quality?
    Also, Ive noticed interlaced doesn't work so well at times, If i were to export as HD 1080p 25 fps will my video come out distorted?
    Id love to trial and error, but each render takes about 4 hours! (and that's with VBR 1 pass)
    Also, i wish to export to Youtube and keep a copy on my PS3. I wouldn't mind the size, but as you know fat32 only allows 4GB max to be transferred to a USB and PS3 is a Fat32 system so Im unable to transfer.
    Would you recommend one generic export or a different one for Youtube and my PS3... bearing in mind that it is a short movie (20 mins)

    My cameras records PAL at 21mbps AVCHD or 28mbps in progressive model.
    I have tried ramping up the finished movie to 30 with a max of 35 and also exported at 20.  Seen on a 55" tv or projected does not show any significant difference.
    The standard Youtube and Vimeo export presets work well for me, typically they export at 5mbps. 
    For the PS I would export specifically at the max rate that you can get the finished export on your PS

  • PP CS4 Problem with exported H.264 .mp4 video. Can't AME do proper encoding?

    Trying to export a Video of ~60mins using the H.264 Codec .mp4 which converts in AME successfully, allthough when playing back the f
    ile, it has problems after ~40mins. When i try to jump to a later point in the timeline to playback i.e. 48th minute or 50:10 or wha
    tever, the image freezes, audio continues and it takes 10-20 secs untill the video image continues.
    I tried different playback programms like VLC,Windows media etc. and different compressions 2-5Mbps as CBR and VBR1 / 2, nothing cha
    nged.
    Source is Sony DV and i have some still images as .png. Since the first 30mins work alright, i thought i try out if something with t
    he source material in the timeline is causing the problem , so i cut after the 30st minute and copied the first 30mins behind that
    to get a 60mins video, but exaclty the same playback issue after ~40th minute.
    Is this an most likely a problem caused by AME using H.264 .mp4 Codec?
    Other videos i did months before in the same way using the same source material worked fine. Adobe Premiere and AME is up to date!
    Thank you

    hmn sounds like it makes sense. I have seen that "i-Frame in GOP" somewhere in PP i think.
    Allthough i recall that i had videos i exported which played fine till the end with no delay at a later seek distance.
    I noticed that quicktime player has the same issue but is much quicker than VLC.
    Is there a work arround or alternative? Can it be improved?
    I need H.264 & .mp4 for webpodcast on vimeo.com
    The only thing which looks strange to me ist that the lenght of the delay showing the images (i guess finding it) takes almost the same time
    as on other later point like at the very end. Id assume that if its normal behavior the delay should become bigger and bigger with a later point in time ?
    Appreciate your time to answer jim,Thanks

  • How to export .MOV in desired video pixel size and in a centered format.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium SPK2 and Quick Time for Windows Pro Version 7.6.5 the latest release.
    I have a series of Quick Time .mov files which were shot at HD using a Canon Mark II EOS 5D camera. In total its about 28 GB of .mov files seperated into 78 different .mov clips. The movie inspector says they are .H264 format at 1920 x 1080 pixels
    When I look at the QTM Other Properties Visual Settings it tells me the .mov Transformation for Normal, Display and Scaled is 1920 X 1080 pixels. I have checked 'Preserve Aspect Ratio.
    I have figured out that I can drag all the individual clips into QTP thus making a single complete movie so to say. However, I have not been able to figure out how to convert this into a mpeg file (compressed ) that will display normally both on a PC when burned to DVD or to play on a standard DVD player or even play at the correct size on a PC.
    *Playback size not correct:*
    It also does not display at the requested size when the mpeg file is played natively on the PC wheter using Video Lan, Windows Movie Player, or just clicking on the file and letting IE open it. Their also seems to be a centering issue in which the movie is not centered in the playback window but rather is positioned in the upper left corner, theirby leaving white space to the right and bottom of the player. The original .mov file which I can view in QTP does not have this problem. In fact I have to use the Half Size option so as to view it entirely other wise its too large for my standard PC display.
    I want the completed movie to appear similarly to what one would get if they were to purchase a DVD movie at the store.
    I have gotten it to export in two different sizes reducing down to 256mb and 576mb respectively but both resulting mpeg files display smaller than I desire. The larger one is suppose to be displaying as 1280 x 720 pixels but does not appear to be doing so It appears more like 640 x 480 image. Also neither finished mpeg shows centered in the playback screen.
    My Export Options are set as:
    Movie to MPEG-4
    File Format: MP4
    Video Format: MPEG-4 Improved
    Image Size 1280X720 HD
    Preseve Aspect Ratio using Fit Within Size
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Key Frame: Automatic
    Resync Markers
    Yes, I also tried one using the H264 option at the larger 1920 x 1080 HD format which should be the native QT format according to the movie inspector properties and likewise it does not correctly in size and in fact is blurry.
    How does one take a .mov file and convert it so that it can be
    centered correctly, burned onto a DVD and play like a commercial DVD does.
    I have also tried Womble.com MPEG Video Wizard DVD 5.0 which does make a DVD which will play on a PC with the same incorrect video display image settings. It will not play on a DVD player.
    Thanks for your assistance.

    SOLUTION
    I discovered that the begining graphics of my video which were set at 1280 x 720 pixels were causing the entire video to be reduced in size. I recreated the opening graphics at 1920 x 1080 pixels added in about 90 frames of each graphic ( 3 seconds each ) and the video now converts to mpeg4 at 1280 x720 pixels filling the video screen.
    Later on I will test it at the full 1920 HD conversion and report back what I find.

  • How to export and/or converting video to flash

    I'm having a problem finding a way to make a flash video file. I'm using FCE 3.5 and cannot seem to export my video to be a flash video file. Is there a way to export with FCE 3.5 to flash?
    Also since I've been having this problem, I thought I could perhaps export my video as a mov file, and then convert it to a flash file, but I haven't had much luck finding a way. Quicktime pro doesn't seem to do it. Is there a way to convert mov files to be a flash video file?
    I appreciate any help in letting me know what my options are and/or steps to achieving those. Thanks.

    You need Flash itself or a .mov to .swf converter. You can google to find the converters. ffmpegx can do it.

  • How to correct "combing" of interlaced video?

    Hi folks!
    I'm working on a kind of animated/composited segment where I've reduced (slightly) the size of the video picture and animated it across the screen, left to right. The animation works fine, but I'm seeing the "comb" effect on both the left and right sides of the video (as it moves across the screen). I tried de-interlacing, but it didn't seem to work. The original footage is interlaced, and the final product is going on DVD (it's a wedding video).
    Is the any way I can get rid of that annoying "comb" look?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
    Vic

    Computers often display the combing effect but interlaced footage looks fine when viewed on a display/tv designed to work with interlacing.
    Try a short test DVD, it may be OK.
    Also knowing exact details about the type of footage you are editing with and the Sequence properties will help.

  • How to Export Subtitles as a Video Overlay by Itself or ...?

    Hi all,
    I have Encore CS5.5 and I have a hi-def project (1280x720).  My goal is to create a high quality hi-def video with subtitles permanently on in a single MP4 format video file.  ie: I do not need to create a dvd or dvd image.  Two hypothetical ways I can think of doing this would be:
    1)  Export the subtitles, on their own, in Adobe Encore to a single video file, and then add this file as an overlay video track in Premiere, and export the whole thing into what ever format you like. 
    2)  Have Encore export the project as a single hi-def video file, with subtitles on. (not as a video dvd or flash dvd folder)
    From what I've seen, the first option simply does not exist.  The second option can produce a flash dvd folder, but not a single file.  Is this correct?  Are any of these options viable, or is there another way to do this?  (I imagine I could export to a dvd or blu-ray, and then use a separate program to rip the dvd or blu-ray (with the subtitles on) into a single video file, but this seems like a hassle and will result in lower video quality)
    Thanks in advance!
    Ricky Roma

    I am afraid this is not possible with Encore too. This is because Encore does not composite the subtitles onto the video. It exports them as images in the output file structure and then displays them on the fly while playback.
