Please Help! HD sequence, wrong resolution sub sequence :(

hi guys, wish me. made hdv 1080p30 master sequence in adobe premiere pro 5.5, inside project made another sequence insted chose dv 480i30 since footage given sd (that had mix hd footage later on). thing is, put sd clips on sd timeline basic edit. then, imported sd sequence onto hd sequence editing.

 

when exported master timeline final video, hd native clips fine expected, sd clips very bad (even worse raw originals). tried checking "always deinterlace" doesn't anything. can't edit again, i'm going nutz. can anbody give me options? thank guys.

placing sd images in 1080 sequence default increase size of image on 200%.

if it's mediocre quality originally, you've quadrupled defect size (1x1 becomes 2x2, 1 pixel becomes four)

if increase size further remove black bars on sides, you've made worse.

 

you should able open sd sequence , copy/paste sd clips hd sequence better control.

 

one option i've used in mixing resolutions compromise final size 1280x720 or 960x540.

 

as far settings, when export sequence (aka export media) sure select "use maximum render quality" in export settings.

this tells prp try it's best retain quality on resized images.

 

be careful not try , on compress on original output (i.e. h.264) use quality codec apple prores, avid dnxhd or cineform
