• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Well we have a hd camera we want to start our new movie but hd takes up a ridiculous amount of space and i know it is sharp and fluid but i want to know how to de interlace it so it looks even sharper and more fluid, also i wanted to know a good compress for imove or adobe after effects to compress hd and still make it look pretty good.Thanks

Deinterlacing footage neither makes it sharper nor more fluid. In fact, you get the opposite effect on both. It adds a slight amount of blur (as the computer has to create a new field in place of the one that's removed, so it's like resizing a picture) and it effectively cuts the refresh rate in half.

Of course, both of these assume you're watching the footage on a TV screen. If you ONLY intend to view it on a computer monitor, then it's probably better to deinterlace to get rid of the artifacts that it creates on a progressively scanned display.
