Try producing it at 30 or 60 fps.

I didn't spot a problem with your mp4 snippet.

Not sure of what you mean above, a BD, or an avchd disc, or producing like borgus1 think.

The produced mp4 file played okay with vlc. The mediainfo reported the frame rate as 47.962 and a bit rate of 30.9 Mbps. This is 2x 23.976 fps so you may want to burn at 1920x1080/p24.

Thank you,

I produced the movie clip at both 30 FPS and 60 fps and the shimmering line is still there in the burned DVD.

The first attachment is the produced version which should look normal.

The second attachment is an electronic file which shows a shimmering horizontal line also,
When you say the mp4 file looks good - are you referring to the produced copy (1st attachment) or the electronic copy which would be the second attachment?

Tomasc,

Thank you.

I produced the movie clip at 1920x1080/24p but the shimmering horizontal line still appeared in the burned DVD picture.
What I meant by burned movie - either creating an electronic file or burning a DVD - the horizontal shimmering line is still there.

I saw your MP4 clip and produce MP4 files 1920x1080 30 fps, 24 fps, PAL, NTSC.

MPEG 2 60i PAL, NTSC. (DVD)

Created DVD-Video and BluRay save in folder in HD.

Everything perfect play in Media Player and MPClassic

Note: 1st file posted refers to DVD PAL (INF).

You could add an image showing the line.

My apologies,

The first attachment is the final electronic movie file with the shimmering line. The second attachment is the produced movie which looks fine. (I downloaded them in the reverse order and assumed they were in the same order on this page.)

PlaySound,

It looks like no matter how you burned/created the movie everything turns out fine. Great - it is possible!

But no matter what settings I use on the final burn step, the movie has a shimmering line.

You asked that I post an image of the shimmering line. I tried to stop the movie and take a screen shot, but when I stopped the movie there is no line - it is perfectly clear.

I played the DVD on three different computers and the line appears on each one.

I have attached two more files from the DVD which will hopefully show the shimmering line.

I just downloaded the first attachment and unfortunately the picture is small. If you look at the grandstands at the far right towards the end of the video you will see a faint shimmering horizontal line.

The video has horizontal flickering effect in the middle of the screen, that's common in PD, for interlaced video.

There is not much to do, the original video is progressive, PD only makes DVD interlaced mode.

If you have BluRay player make a BluRay or AVCHD (DVD).

option:
Save your video in FullHD or HD format that your TV supports. Copy to USB flash drive and direct play on TV (USB), with great image quality.
