Okay. Success. But first I re-captured the HDV as ProRes 23.98 with the MXO2. No luck - big interlace problem. Then I tried re-capturing as 29.97 (even though the clip properties say 24p) and then removing pulldown. The interlacing is even worse. Then I did something original. I read the FCP manual. Which says if the material is interlaced, use Compressor (not the De-Interlace setting but the Progressive Frame Control). So I look at the Browser for the later clips from the shoot in question. They say 24p. Then I look at the earlier clips shot and captured (as ProRes) together. These say 29.97. Go figure. I put both 24p and 29.97 clips thru Compressor and voila! Problem solved.

No, I mistakenly thought I had bought the 24p model. Turns out mine was the model before it. I'm using the "convert 1080i 29.97 from 23.98" setting in video output. Works fine for color grading and the like.
