Severe problems with field settings

Hi, it sounds pretty much like a field order problem, means no mater what you render it your MPEG-2 Encoder turns it to the wrong field order. Not possible, well, Mr. CCESP has the tendency to behave like that. Whenever I encode my PAL DV Streams, no matter what I set in CCESP (Upper Field setting checked / unchecked) the bastard turns it into Upper Field first which is definately wrong for DV PAL, where the recorded Field Order is Lower Field First <- Standard. So, how to come arround this, after MPEG-2 encoding fire up Pulldown.exe (README !!!) or use Changer.exe from Darim's DVMPEG Package to turn arround the field order setting, et voila corrected... mike

Hi, should be the same issue for PAL & NTSC. I know it in depth for PAL... mike

Mike, Pulldown has proved to be the solution. I rendered as progressive from Vegas which gave video the jittered the entire frame and then used pulldown. Result was super steady video Thanks mate
