Hello there.

I'm not an expert, having never used HD footage in Cinelerra yet, so others may chime in here.

First of all, you'll want to set the project settings in Cinelerra to your target output format (whether thats 720x576i @ 25fps or 1920x1080p @ 25fps or whatever.) Then make sure Cinelerra is correctly detecting the format of the source video (right-click it in the Media window and choose Info.) I know that at least on SD, NTSC uses bottom-field-first and PAL uses top-field-first. I would imagine it's the same for HD, so you might first try changing the field order of the source video in the Info box. (If the field order is wrong, you'll see horrible shaking on slow pans & motion.) If that doesn't make a difference, you'll probably need to de-interlace the source using a de-interlace effect on the whole track, then the rendering engine will take care of re-interlacing if the project settings specify it. (To prevent detail loss, see the topics on the following wiki page about "Defeating Interlacing" and "Making video look like film." http://cinelerra.org/docs/split_manual_en/cinelerra_cv_manual_en_21.html)

Hope this helps!

Sincerely,
Sean M. Pappalardo
