Rippling Images in Windows Movie Maker

[fictionbya.livejournal.com]

I have made some .avi clips from a movie to use in a vid, but when I use the clips in Windows Movie Maker, they have a distortion that makes ripples in the image. I have never encountered this problem before and am at a loss as to why it is happening.

Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how I can fix this? It's making me nuts!

Here are a couple screen caps of the distortion so you can see what I mean.

I'm not an expert on this but it seems like you've got some problems with interlacing. What program are you using to rip the DVDs? If you poke around a bit, see if there are options involving words like "interlacing" or "field order".
