Can Vegas De-interlace still frames for DV output ?

There has been lots of talk about stills in Vegas.
I came up with a few ways to do it all inside Vegas, but haven't found a way to de-interlace them to remove jitter. Couldn't get them to de-interlace for snap shot output to clipboard either.
Anybody know how? Or a low cost program that will?

set project to progressive (temporarily- just for the screen shots)

I've been having problems with stills in Vegas also...even when I have the project set to progressive...it a pain in the butt anyway having to switch to progressive every time I want a still...I've been using Scenalyzer Live to do all my capturing, STILLS, and I'll be using it to print to tape also (my program of choice for all but editing)...it's so easy to catch stills in Scenalyzer...you can scrub the clips and once you've found your still you hit F2 and it captures your still to a folder of your choice...very easy...no jitters when I bring it into Vegas...it's a very small and relatively inexpensive program...worth every penny

Got it. One also needs to click the advanced tab and set de-interlace to blend fields. Don't know why I didn't get these results when I thought I did the same steps a few days ago.
Thanks so much for the tip. This will work great until Vegas 3 ?

Yeah, I can do the same thing in Studio DV. But I don't want to have to load the clip into another program and then go find the frame I need in the clip.
Plus, if you aren't seeing jitter on something that has motion in it, Scenealyzer is only doing a field capture ( 720x240 =less resolution). But it might be doing a de-interlace action (full resolution).
What is the size of the stills from Scenealyzer listed at the bottom of Vegas explorer when you single click on them ?
