Unlike previous versions of Twixtor, the Separate Fields feature of After Effects for source material should be set as is appropriate for the footage. (Note that you can also interpret the footage with Separate Fields set to None, which means older projects will work as expected).

If you have 3:2 pulldown in your material, you should remove it first before applying Twixtor (either using AE's pulldown removal feature, or by using our FieldsKit product).

Note that you must also specify the field order setting within Twixtor in addition to how you’ve interpreted the footage with AE's Interpret footage command.

Set AE's Separate Fields setting as is appropriate for the footage:

Simply set the Field Rendering setting of AE's Render Settings appropriately. If set to "Off" Twixtor will produce progressive frame material. If set to Upper Field First or Lower Field First, Twixtor will create interlaced material as appropriate, using the time-interpolation settings specified in the Twixtor plugin. Note that this requirement is different from pre-version 4 versions of Twixtor.

Set AE's Field Render setting as is desired for final output:

Specifying the input interlacing:
Unlike previous versions of Twixtor, the Field Separation setting in the Footage Controls of Combustion should be set as is appropriate for the footage. (Note that you can set the Field Separation setting for the footage to No Fields, which means older projects will work as expected). Note that you must also specify the field order setting within Twixtor in addition to however you've set the Field Separation footage setting.

If you have 3:2 pulldown in your material, you should remove it first before applying Twixtor.

Simply set the Field setting of combustion's Composite controls or Render->Output Settings as is desired. If set to "Off" Twixtor will produce progressive frame material. If set to Upper Field First or Lower Field First, Twixtor will create interlaced material as appropriate, using the time-interpolation settings specified in the Twixtor plugin.

Nothing special needs to be done upon input. When rendering, however, make sure field rendering is off. When selecting "Render Composite..." from the Composite menu, click on Render Options and make sure "Field-based Rendering" is NOT checked. Make sure frame blending is turned off for each composition that uses one of the RE:Vision Effects fields-savvy plugins (see manual for Commotion).

Note that you must also specify the input field order setting within FieldsKit or Twixtor settings. No other special setup is necesseary.

Note you must specify the field order setting within Twixtor.

If working with interlaced material, make sure the Monitor window of Premiere Pro is set to view at 100% and at Premiere Pro's Highest Quality.

When setting up a new project that will use Twixtor, make sure the Project settings have the interlacing set as you desire the output footage to be. If set to "None" then Twixtor will create progressive output. When set to "Lower Field" or "Upper Field" Twixtor will create the chosen style of interlaced material using the interpolation methods as set in Twixtor. Note that this requirement is different from pre-version 4 versions of Twixtor.
