too many opportunities to "screw it up"!įrame Blending is a method used to "smooth" the visual perception of the playback of interlaced video. Like I originally said - I do not like MPEG Streamclip because it has too many options. It's basically "TV quality" (standard broadcast television.) The quality of the video is just not there to matter much. I would recommend deinterlacing DV/MPEG-2 sources, but not others. If your source is from broadcast television, it is 80-90% likely to be interlaced. Progressive DVDs became somewhat standard over time, but television stayed with interlaced media. MPEG-2 is used quite a bit in broadcast television (old style) and for DVDs. If every frame looks like a "perfect" image, it's progressive. Uncompressed audio is Linear PCM (generated by M-S - I checked.)įor interlacing, in the player window, advance frame by frame - if you see any "combing" effect (lines of the image offset from each other) the video is interlaced. Thanks a lot for any advice that you can share with me!įor sound, you will want uncompressed - 48kHz. Last question: Qualtiy loss through converting formats - Does this "generally" happen? is there a general rule of thumb for what conditions would make this happen, and when it would not? I beleive the remaining options are self explanatory. Is it worth entering a value in this field? If so, I assume I should use the Frame Rate from the source footage?įrame Blending and Better Downscaling fields are left blank.Īnd how about the options below that - Interlaced Scaling, Reinterlace Chroma, Deinterlace Video? If I open the source file I can find the original Frame Rate. Sound: Go with the default? Why would I want to change the Format, or kbps?įrame size - I believe the default is the same size as the source file / footage, and I should stick with this: true?įrame Rate: This field is blank by default. Quality: Why would I ever choose less than 100% - just to create smaller file sizes? (the default is 50%) I assume the default is the correct choice based on the export format I chose is that correct, or do I need to be making a choice here? The default compression is "Apple Photo - JEPG":
