I am a very newbie

I am trying Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0. Imported a .MOD video file. All is fine with this file.

Simply compressed as an MPEG and my heart sank as I saw the result.

There are horizontal lines on the video, I think it is what is called interlacing. I tried compressing in a WMV file instead and it was worst.

I am using the OOTB compressions. What am is doing wrong. HELP please as I wanna use premiere.

Thanks

This is very much an interlacing issue. You need to de-inetrl;ace as part of your export. I don't use Elements so not sure where the setting is but it should be there somewhere.

However, if you are exporting to make a DVD then leave it as it is because it will be ok when played on a TV
