View Full Version : Wavy lines on my footage when panning.

I've noticed that, in some of my footage that I'm editing with Adobe Premeire Elements 3.0, there is a wavy line (like old fashioned 'interference') at the bottom of my footage when I am panning, say at about lines 530 to 540 (PAL).
I've seen this issue in several clips but only when I am panning!
I've tried to crop the clip but the lines simply move up the footage, so it's obviously not a problem with the camcorder (I think).
What is causing this?

Can you post a quick sample of whats going on... maybe a screencap if any.

Sorry I can't, wish I could.
When I run the footage, it's as though the bottom lines are out of sync with the lines above. Almost like what you see with interlaced footage on a PC except that it's one large step rather than 288 small ones!
When I pause the footage, the resultant still image is ok.
Any more thoughts?

Do you see those lines after exporting your footage and viewing it with another software? It might be just a display issue and maybe you don't need to worry about it.
