Some flickering scenes in DVD (from HDV in FC7)

Hello

I have a little problem.

I am trying to burn a dvd from a HDV secuence in FC7 and the resoult is that my dvd have some scenes with flickering images.That is a kind of luma flickering to be precise. Some times a part of the image, let say the left superior corner..., other the entire frame. It occurs most of the time in the bright parts of the image

My workflow is the following:

1- In secuence settings I select ProRes 422

2- Export/ Quicktime conversor/ ProRes 442

3- Load it in Compressor

4- 90 presetings/90 best

5- Burn it with DVDPro

Anyone who could give me a cluo of the causes of these flickerings? Any recomendation/solution?

Thanks a lot for your help!!

MacBook Pro, Procesador Core i7

Don't use QT Conversion. Export QuickTime Current Settings.

My guess is you're seing interlacing artifacts. If that's the case, they will look particularly bad on a computer screen. They may not be noticable played out from a DVD player to a TV. If they are, try de-intelacing a short test section in Compressor; it does a good job.
