For going to SD, I've found scaling in After Effects to be the fastest and best looking. But you need to have an AIC rendered file to start with. Just import it, make an SD sized Comp and then drag...

Thanks Tim.
The sequences don't show a green or orange colored line above the sequence. The only problem is these weird flash frames once in a while (usually in different spots each time).
