Video editing question

So I got a video all edited for BOTG and the preview looks awesome.
But then when I render it out I get a lot of ghosting.
How do I fix this?
I'm using vegas to edit 60i HDV video.

Can you post a pic of it ? There are a lot of things it could be.

It looks perfect in the preview

Looks like the rendering is interlaced, double check your render settings or how the footage is handled coming in.

What are your project settings? Even though you're working with 60i footage, make sure you're using these settings. Either full 1080 or 720 resolution, field order: none (progressive scan), deinterlace method: interpolate fields... If you're ramping velocity, in the individual clip's properties, select - reduce interlace flicker. And lastly, double check your render settings (need to be using 30p out).
