Question for the Sony FX1 and Z1 Owners

What field order do you use for your video on the time line?

And if you use DVDA what field order do you render to mpeg2 for
DVDA?
Upperfield or lowerfield? I'm trying to solve a jitter problem
on dvd playback on TV.

Thanks ZION

HDV itself is upper field first, but when you render to DVD or DV this changes to lower.

Does V6 do this auto or do I need to change the field order via timeline ,properties, rendering settings ect.

Should happen automatically via the rendering templates. Click Custom and Video tab to check.

Have a look at the last few contributions to the post: "Simple Q: quantize frames"; the discussion wandered away from the original question and into the area you're asking about.

Thanks! Serena

I'll try some of the info in that post.

By the way it's an excellant post. Right on target for my problem.

Thanks ZION
