motion 4 scrolling text

I cannot deliver clean text after exporting from Motion 4 to QT and it's driving me mad , can anyone help ?

I have made a 25 second scrolling text in 48 pt Calabri. The movement is OK although not perfect but

the main problem is each letter seems sliced possibly due to a field problem .

I am exporting in Apple Pro Res 4444 to QT so that I can superimpose the roller . I have had near success

with a similar roller but recently I may have changed the project presets

and this could be the culprit , not sure why though .

I am mastering on ProRes HQ so have the preset on Broadcast HD 1080i50 Upper field order and 25 FPS .

I'm not a technical wizard like some of my colleagues and find there's so many boxes to check !

interlaced title rolls are always difficult. Prebuild the roll as progressive will also help. Adjusting the speed of the roll can also make a big difference. You should probably also try doing the composite in motion. I've just vastly improved the quality of a title roll by creating a photoshop file of the text and doing the animation in aftereffects. This was for a 24p 1080 sequence.
