Using Diva's deinterlace option worked for me, and it's free. Worth a try!

Playing with CC...we'll see if I get results. Here's the vid: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... php?v=6848

This is an effect from one of Koopiskeva's vids.

The brightening flash-like effect is focused on the girl's silhouette and then fades back to normal. Any idea how this is done?

I use FCP 5, but if you know how to do it another program, that still helps!
