SD DVD plays back interlaced on LCD TV

Hi Vikash,
the DVD-player itself will never care about deinterlacing. that´s what the user needs to do (or the author).

if you are encoding your assets interlaced they will be interlaced, if you are encoding progressive the will be progressive (on the disc). interlaced pictures wont be seen on TFTs or plasma, but in some cases the will, dependeing on the additional hardware of your screen.

in most cases I´ve seen interlaced on flat-screens it has been because of wrong field-dominance.

have you checked your DVD using a tube-reference-monitor?

cheers
