Hi all
New user to Natron.
Apologies if posted in wrong section.
My question as follows, I often have to touch up HD interlaced footage from a TV studio,
is Natron able to export interlaced footage, top field first?
I have tried several options and codecs but to no avail.
Any suggestions/help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Paul
Good Morning! My be this video will help you.
Hi Mikhail
Thank you for your response, however that is the exact opposite of what I need unfortunately.
What I am looking for is to re-interlace the footage to render and not de-interlace the footage being read by Natron.
serious compositing can only be done on progressive footage. Deinterlace on input to get progressive footage with twice the framerate (50i->100p) then do the compositing, and finally re-interlace. I would recommend de-interlacing and re-interlacing with ffmpeg, and using an intra-only intermediate codec (DNxHD or prores) or individual frames
Thank you Frédéric Devernay
It is what I do at the moment, 25i in ----> 50p.
I was hoping that on export I could re-interlace to save me an extra step of interlacing outside of Natron.
