MB in FCP or AE? - please help!!!!
 

Hi, I have a couple of dilemas here. I´ve been editing my first short movie filmed in HDV 1080i50. And the color correction I did it with MB in FCP. I also have MB in AE 6.5, but I´m planning to use it to deinterlace and convert my pal footage into 23,976p material.
My question is if it really makes a difference to do de deinterlace and convertion in AE with MB when my footage is already in 25 p, as it´s pal hdv. Is there really a difference in motion?

And secondly, I´ve been doing some tests with some scenes in AE, and my settings for applying the MB AUTO SETUP buttom are: hdtv 1920 / 1080 and frame rate: 23,976 for pal material (square pixels)
The weired things is that when I push the AUTO SETUP buttom the message tha appears is: NTSC to 24p. Magic Bullet is now configured to convert NTSC interlaced video to 23,976.
And no, it´s PAL footage! So I go to DEINTERLACE box that follows and I open that box and change it to PAL: AE thinks renders and now the message goes: Pal to 24. Magic Bullet is now configured to convert PAL interlaced video to 23,976fps
So this can´t be the normal process for convert PAL with Auto setup in MB right? Or is fine?

And last question. Which must be the settings to export the film in AE, DV PAL - PROGRESSIVE - CURRENT FRAME RATE???
Well, and that´s it,
Thanks for your help
I really need it!!!
