    This Only Happens Through My PC

    I bought a new camcorder today and it an HDD camcorder. When I copy and paste a video file into my PC I get computer graphics around some parts and it's fine 100% when I view from my camcorder into my TV. I'm not sure if I need an upgrade. I don't want to upgrade my video or graphics card encase I don't need to and I don't know what upgrade I should get or if I need both if an upgrade is needed. Click on the photo, please to check out what I mean. I filmed my parents cat and turned a frame of footage into a photo. You can clearly see bad computer graphics as the cat's whiskers and thin lines around face and ears. I cropped around the photo to make it more noticeable.

    Many thanks.

    Those are lines of interlacement, absolutely normal. Use a Deinterlace filter while viewing in PC.

      Many thanks for the help. That software that you told me about, does it filter the interlacement out of a DVD burn so that the DVD playback OK or does the software only filter the interlacement out only on a PC playback?

      Many thanks.

        I did not mention any software.
        I suggested that you use ANY deinterlace filter while viewing it in PC using any standard software DVD player.
        If you want to view it on TV, there is no need to de-interlace.

          What I want to do is view my home movies in my DVD player and through my TV. I don't want to watch them through my PC because I can't sit on a swivel chair watching films because I can't put my feet up to enjoy better.

          If you know any names of any software that filters out interlacement, please tell me because I have so much to do and I want to restore everything to DVD quality because what footage I edited together in the first place, the picture quality wasn't very good. I'm not talking about restoring from my DVD's themselves, I mean from the DV tapes because I never erase anything just encase any discs get damaged. Once I can filter out interlacement and get my home movies in DVD qualily, that will be brilliant, then I can get things going.

          Many thanks.

            what paglamon told u is..

            u dont need any specific tool. just use powerdvd/windvd to watch movies and it will be deinterlaced auto if required.

            but because u'll be watching through ur standalone dvd to tv and if that tv is not LCD/Plasma, dont do anything ur dvd will play it fine.

            just incase u get those lines then u need to reencode ur dvd's with some tool to make them progressive... until u get problem dont worry about that.

            if u see those lines with dv file which u captured on ur pc... it may go away with dvd conversion or u need to capture with someother software then ur doing now
            Seems like as soon you buy somehing, v. 2 comes out 1.5 times as fast!..!

              I am confused. As far as I know Hard Disc Drive cams record as MPEG2. Where does DV tape come into it ?
              Are your DVDs, when played into TV through the player, also showing these lines ?

                Many thanks. That sounds clearer to me now.

                  What I meant about DV tapes, I was talking about using an old camcorder that takes DV tapes where I want to re-edit my older footage together to make those home movies better. Sorry I didn't explain things better.
