Hi. In Vegas 12 on rendering in mpeg4 the video has horizontal lines coming from everything that moves. After reading through endless amounts of forums and watching You Tube clips I'm now aware this is called Interlacing. How do I get shot of the lines ? I recorded on DV Pro 25fps, my Project settings are, Field Order: None (Progressive Scan), Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.4568 Pal DV Widescreen), Pixel Format: 8-bit, Full-Resolution Rendering Quality: Best, Motion Blue Type: Gaussian, Deinterlace Method: None (I have tried the other two options). Render Settings are, Frame Rate 25.000 (Pal), Allow source to adjust frame rate box is ticked. Field Order: None (Progressive Scan), Variable Bit Rate, Maximum bps 2,000,000 Average bps 1,000,000. Video Rendering Quality: I have changed many settings as advised on You Tube videos and on different forums. None of those work. Can anyone advise please. Thank you.

Not sure what DV Pro is. I tried googling it but got no answers. Can you give a bit more info? Camera?

Most DV camcorders were interlaced - so not progressive. Do you know the camera model and settings?
UK PAL DV recordings are 720 x 576 50i
I don't use Vegas BUT I would expect it to have a DV PAL preset for projects - it should be fairly prominent (I'm guessing/hoping).
It always makes sense to make your project setting (or timeline) the same as your source footage. The various editing apps differ in how this is achieved - some are fully automatic - but if you deliberately put interlaced footage into a progressive scan project it could potentially confuse matters and muck up the output.
When exporting to MPEG4 you can de-interlace the footage and make it progressive scan - this is preferable for computer/web based content. If you intend going to DVD or back to tape then keep it interlaced.
Hopefully a Vegas bod will be along soon to give you clearer answers.

Try this. To make sure your project settings match your source footage in Vegas go to File>Properties and click on the "Match Media Video settings" icon on the far right of the "Template" settings. Then select one of your video files and Vegas will do the rest.
Then render to MainConcept AVC/AAC (*.mp4,*.avc) template and select "Internet 720p" in the drop down list.

I have rendered on Vegas 8 to 11 with no issues. Just seems to be on Vegas 12. I will check the settings though. Thank you.
