I haven't to date and I seem to get by... :o) So you have missed in the howto the section: Creating MPEG2 Videos, and there the subsection: Encoding destination TV (interlaced) or Monitor (progressive) ?
When you record from a VCR at halfe size, you have no interlacing. So you do not need to think about that. At full size, you have interlacing, for a monitor you might want deinterlace, else leave the interlacing as it is. The default values should be rather failsave. And create a interlaced movie. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
