Deinterlace before any vertical resizing.

Why was it interlaced in the first place?

Sorry... you've done one of my pet hates: DEINTERLACE before uploading.

Distance between lenses

What's the distance between the lenses? Given the overall dimensions, I'm suspecting it's rather less than that between the average adult human eyes. This will have a significant bearing on how natural the most native 3D from the unit will appear.

3D camcorder-shot video

Is generally unusable at the moment IMHO.

Only strange people would have a 3D screen TV (which are nothing but expensive, low quality novelty toys), anaglyphic video looks total crap (even on a computer screen) and is generally unwatchable on TV (ghosting), cross-eyed is fine but tiring and most people can't even learn to do it.

Generally, stills are OK for cross-eyed viewing on TV, videos - not really.

Oh, and AVCHD = abomination, no matter how many Ds.
