Video-in looks like crap

[josua]

Hi all,

I am capturing NTSC SD-SDI video with a Blackmagic Decklink SDI card. The video feed looks great in Blackmagic media express but when ever I run it through Isadora with the video in watcher the quality drops immensely and I get insane interlacing line on all moving subjects. the only processing I do is a slight resize and crop. using the zoomer actor. my capture settings are set to DV/DVCpro NTSC interlaced. all frame rates are set to 29.97.

Does anybody have a similar issue or know how to get clean video into Isadora?

Thanks

Try de-interlacing it.

Cheers,

Hugh

How do I de-interlace it? I cant find it anywhere in the settings.

"my capture settings are set to DV/DVCpro NTSC interlaced"

I would try it in the capture card control, first.  Don't know the card, but I'm sure it's possible.  If not, there is a deinterlace actor.

Cheers,

Hugh
