Deinterlacing Clips
 
 
 

Deinterlace clips to separate each field to its own frame. The result clip is twice as long as the original.

To deinterlace clips:

  1. In the Format menu, enable Deinterlace.
  2. If necessary, select Field 1 or Field 2 from the Field Dominance box. By default, Field Dominance is set to Auto, which automatically determines whether the clip is Field 1 or 2 dominant. The other settings are available if Auto does not return the desired result.

  3. From the Interpolation box, turn Interpolation on or off.

    • If you deinterlace clips with interpolation off, the process repeats each isolated line to fill in the scan lines that would otherwise be vacant in the resulting clip's frames.
    • If you deinterlace clips with interpolation on, the process interpolates a blend between adjacent lines to fill in the isolated scan lines. This option reduces interlacing artifacts.
  4. Select the clip that you want to deinterlace.
  5. Select the destination reel.

    The result clip—twice as long as the original clip—appears.
