Needless conversion, I'm sure, but I was mostly working off of VicBond's guide, and his guide results in divx footage for editing in premiere. Hence why I ended up using another app to convert my results into mpeg 2.

actually, vicbond007 just uses that step for storing the filtered video (that and it allows you to search through the footage faster by holding shift+arrow key (search by keyframes)), you're supposed to use that footage and take clips in vdub(/mod) and save those with a lossless codec to edit in premiere

Ah, I misunderstood that. It seemed to me like he was saying that it was necessary to put one divx encode out to observe the interlacing to determine the best way to optimize the frames. I looked through the later pages and saw specific technical examples for clean up like pixilation and rainbows, and thought it was irrelevent, I ought to give the later pages a good read then. Thanks for pointing that out.
