The i means "interlace." There are 50 fields that interlace together to create 25 complete frames. </p> <p>1080p is 25fps as well, but you can shoot 50fps is your camera allows for it. </p> <p>What are you viewing the video on when you see the flickering? Is it still on your computer or have burned it to DVD already and viewed it on a TV? </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/1080i-flicker-when-editing#post-53490 Sun, 27 Dec 2009 04:01:19 +0000 Pookeyhead 53490@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hello and Merry Christmas! </p> <p>I'm editing some 1080i footage a friend shot... I think it was a Canon HC10. I'm using Adobe Premiere CS4. The problem is, I don't know what settings to use to output the finished video.</p> <p>If I use 1080i Premiere only lets me use 25fps and motion seems flickery, especially with slow horizontal pans. If I use 1080p 25ps I get the same.</p> <p>Am I correct in thinking that 1080i is 50fps? I ask this because if I output in 1080p 50fps the video looks fine with smooth movement. Will creating a 50fps video cause me problems if I ever want to encode it to a SD DVD or even a Blu Ray disk?</p> <p>When I import the clip into Premiere it informs me in the project assets pallete that it's 25fps.</p> <p>And when I export the clip as 1080i it sets the frame rate to 25fps.</p> <p>When I use this setting however, the slow pan movements are still flickery.</p> <p>The only way I can get smooth movement is to output as 1080p 50fps.</p> <p>Is the raw AVCHD footage 25 or 50fps?</p> <p>Help ! </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47272 Wed, 27 May 2009 17:55:01 +0000 NormanWillis 47272@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Apparently capture is handled through NeoScene.</p> <p>The one downside appears to be that it is not yet compatible with x64, so I will have to install x32 Vegas!</p> <p>sigh...after all those upgrades to my workstation!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47239 Tue, 26 May 2009 21:25:02 +0000 NormanWillis 47239@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi Rob.</p> <p>Cineform confirms that I should shoot in Cineframe 24, which will put 24p inside of a 60i interlace.  Then when I convert the footage they will extract the original 24p, so I will end up with 24p.</p> <p>I still need to confirm what the specs are they are using for YouTube, but I won't know that until tomorrow.</p> <p>See you then,</p> <p>Norman</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47226 Tue, 26 May 2009 13:20:25 +0000 NormanWillis 47226@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>That's what I'm being told.  I will attempt to verify, and then let you know.</p> <p>Thanks.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47224 Tue, 26 May 2009 12:29:16 +0000 robGRAUERT 47224@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>That's news to me.

If it converts interlaced footage to progressive during capture, that's cool, but I don't see a need to get all tied up with that issue. You should have no problems capturing your footage with capture settings that match your shooting settings. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47205 Tue, 26 May 2009 08:39:21 +0000 NormanWillis 47205@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p><em>&gt;&gt;Computer screens work at 30p, which is why you have to de-interlace you're 60i footage.</em></p> <p><em>Make sense?</em></p> <p>That part makes perfect sense.  If 90+% of my views are probably going to be website, then I need to turn it into 30p.</p> <p>I called Jon at Videoguys, and he said if I just feed in via firewire and then apply the Cineform codec I can turn the footage into 30p, and I should not lose hardly any quality.</p> <p>I still have to read the Cineform site again this morning, and then will get back with you.</p> <p>Thank you,</p> <p>Norman</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47202 Tue, 26 May 2009 06:26:03 +0000 robGRAUERT 47202@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>"I am not clear at exactly what point I would de-interlace, or how."</p> <p>The point when you would de-interlace is AFTER you are finished editing and you are ready to export a file for the web. That is when you de-interlace if your footage was shot as interlaced. If you shot progressive footage, then there is no need to de-interlace.</p> <p> </p> <p>"If I understand, I would just feed the tape in without de-interlacing, and then edit everything interlaced."</p> <p>Umm...kinda. You say it as if you have the option to de-interlace while capturing. You cannot de-interlace while capturing unless you have expensive hardware, such as the AJA Kona3 and Xena capture cards. I am guessing you do not have them. So yes, just make sure your capture settings are set for interlaced footage before you capture. Then you will be editing interlaced footage, which is what you want if you shot 1080i.</p> <p> </p> <p>"Then before rendering, I would de-interlace whatever was headed for the web, but not de-interlace anything that was slated for DVD and Blu-Ray; is that correct?"</p> <p>Right. But don't make the mistake of looking for a "de-interlace" filter in your editing program. What the editing program does is drop one of the fields, which is degrading to the image and not truly de-interlacing. Proper de-interlacing requires either hardware, such as those mentioned above, or software dedicated for compression/converting.</p> <p> </p> <p>"The Cineform site says I can extract 24p from 1080i."</p> <p>Uhh yes and no. You can transcode anything to anything. There isn't anything physically stopping you, but that doesn't mean you should do it. If you choose to, you need a program dedicated to compression/converting. If you want 24p, ideally you should shoot 24p. Exporting 1080i as 24p I doubt will look the same as initially shooting in 24p, nor will it looks as good. Also, you mentioned you are going to post on the web, therefore, 24p is not your best option. Computer screens work at 30p, which is why you have to de-interlace you're 60i footage.</p> <p>Make sense?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47178 Mon, 25 May 2009 21:21:22 +0000 NormanWillis 47178@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> <a href="http://www.cineform.com/neoscene/features.php">http://www.cineform.com/neoscene/features.php</a></p> <p>The Cineform site says I can extract 24p from 1080i.  </p> <p>It's late.  I need to surf their site again tomorrow.</p> <p>Thank you for your help.</p> <p>Norman</p> <p> </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/fx1-de-interlacing-1080i-and-cineform-neoscene#post-47177 Mon, 25 May 2009 21:08:06 +0000 NormanWillis 47177@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi Rob.</p> <p><em>&gt;&gt;If you are shooting interlaced footage, then edit interlaced footage. there is no need to deinterlace unless you are posting on the web, but deinterlacing doesn't come until after you edit anyway.

If you need to add an effect to a clip and require progressive scanning, bring the clip you intent to add an effect to into Compressor and convert it to 1080p (if you don't have a Kona3 card, compressor is the next best thing for conversions). Then bring that exported clip into whatever effects program you are using.</p> <p>Even though there's nothing wrong with going from 1080 to 720 during an import, converting from interlace to progressive isn't as simple as changing your settings during an import. However, if you were going from progressive to interlace, that would work. It's easier to interlace progressive footage than it is to de-interlace interlaced footage.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/converting-108i-to-720p#post-42944 Fri, 09 Jan 2009 01:04:34 +0000 fairpaul 42944@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I am filming in 1080i and importing to Final Cut Pro, although the final movie will be standard DVD.</p> To resolve some interlacing issues and give smoother effects I intend to re-compress the imported footage to 720p prior to edit using media manager.
