Oddly enough, even though the source footage is 60p, and if I render it as 30 (progressive) I wind up with scanlines. I don't know how to avoid these. I have already disabled smart resampling for the project which has eliminated ghosting.

Can you post the Mediainfo (mediaarea.net) readout for the video?

<p>I filmed my short video in 60p, yes not 60i. I set the project in Vegas Pro 11 to 30 frame per second, but the only thing that seemed to get rid of scan line was to change the project to 30 frames per second interlaced (lower field first).</p>

<p>Software: Vegas pro 11.0 (up to date)

Does Vegas allow for rendering in frame rate different than source frame rate?
