Anyone here "playing with" Movie To Apple Tv? Does it deinterlace
pans or fast movement?
I've encoded a few Apple TV movies from DV sources, and noticed
significant interlacing artifacts on my mac as well as on the Apple
TV. Interestingly, my television did a better job de-interlacing
than the Apple TV. That is, when I switched the Apple TV output from
720p to 1080i, the interlacing artifacts were less obvious.
Also, I converted one of the DV movies into a QuickTime movie w/ a DV
video track, then exported that movie to Apple TV format. Instead of
interlacing, I got chunky pixels as if an upscaling algorithm simply
replicated pixels.
Honestly, I have not yet had time to dig into this issue, but I'm
hoping to find a better recipe for creating Apple TV content from DV.
