A TWC engineer told me of a "contrast" filter that will pull up the shadows. Tiffen and somebody else make them and they come in different grade ratings. The Tiffen is just a bit over US$50 so I'll...

Just to back fill a little info... Canon call their 24fps progressive setting 24f because is uses a interlaced sensor so it technically isn't 24p but the net effect is the same.

I cannot pick out anything in particular that you have wrong.

I wouldn't worry too much about TMPGEnc thinking that your file is interlaced. It often mis-reports info on my files that it imports...

Yeah, it sounds like your missing a codec. The QT trick should tell you what it is. Then go find it and install it then it should be all tickety boo.

Without actually seeing what you're seeing it's hard to tell exactly what the problem is, however I'd guess that it's an interlacing problem. Although I use CS3, I no longer use the Adobe Media...

Anton has it right. It really sounds like an overscan situation. I think if it was a DVD player setup issue the area of missing video would be larger.

Logic dictates that 24p, shooting at 1/48 will let more light in per frame than 60i shooting at 1/60 so I would lean that direction. However, nothing happens in a vacuum and other factors are in play...
