Body: <p>I'm using Handbrake, with the H.264 Codec (RF:16). It works pretty well with live action, but it produces odd results whenever I try to back up/encode animations. I've attached a screenshot:</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/fUHeZ.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/fUHeZ.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>Anything that's static is fine. But for anything moving (like the money tsunami in the image), I get the double image and horizontal lines. When it's moving, the double image isn't as noticeable, but the horizontal lines <em>really</em> stick out badly. Can anyone tell me what's going on, and how to fix it? Are there any codecs made precisely for animations?</p>
  <p>(It's <em>really</em> bad with old psychodelic-type animation. Think &quot;Yellow Submarine&quot; style animation, with lots of bright, flashing colors.)</p>

  Anything that's static is fine. But for anything moving (like the money tsunami in the image), I get the double image and horizontal lines. When it's moving, the double image isn't as noticeable, but the horizontal lines *really* stick out badly. Can anyone tell me what's going on, and how to fix it? Are there any codecs made precisely for animations?
