Q: H.264 Interlaced Question

@Tom Wolsky: I didn't want to stray OT on the FCP X thread where the OP is mixing SD and HD interlaced.

Just to say that I have never found a setting in Compressor that will allow me to output interlace H.284 – even from interlaced source material. Not that I'd ever use it myself, but if there are settings that will do just that, please let me know.

Thanks.

A:

Yes, you're right. It does stay on progressive. I don't think it should do that.

IF you select new setting and choose MPEG-4, it defaults to H.264 same as original. It's basically AVCHD without being in a transport stream.

Thanks, Tom. Undoubtedly that works, although don;t have any interlaced H.264 to use as a source file. But an interlaced XDCAM clip flipped to progressive when I chose MPEG 4 as output.
