I am a little confused with a few things, and will try to keep this short.
First of all, I am shooting Canon60D 1920/1080 29.97 progressive. Converting via MPEG Streamclip to ProRes LT 1920/1080 29.97 upper field first (interlaced scaling and deinterlace video unchecked). Editing in Final Cut Pro 7 on ProRes LT timeline 1920/1080 29.97 progressive.
Then I want to make a Blu-ray in Encore, so using Compressor I export to 18mbps MPEG2 1920/1080 29.97 progressive.
Problem is, when imported into Encore, the Blu-ray Transcode Status is "untranscoded". According to
forums.adobe.com/message/1901666 Encore does not support this flavor of Blu-ray. My option, if I want to keep the Blu-ray Transcode Status at "don't transcode", I have to comply with one of these items. So my option then would be to encode in Compressor 1920/1080 29.97 interlaced, right?
My biggest question is, is there any effect on the video in changing back to interlaced? My next question is, are there any "holes" in my workflow...things that I am doing wrong...that both affect my final video quality, as well as from a time/efficiency standpoint? I am using Encore CS5.1
Thanks!
Casey
