Video has interlace artifacts
When shooting fast moving objects, along with blurriness, you can get an error called "interlacing". You can easily distinguish an interlaced video from a blurry one by horizontal stripes that are present accross the entire frame clearly visible interlaced areas are marked with yellow arrows):

Why does interlacing happen?
When recording, many digital camcorders divide each frame into a set of even and odd horizontal raws: first the even raws are recorded, and then the odd raws. So, each frame you see consists of two consecutive pictures. This mixing is called interlacing. Thanks to interlacing, your camera can compress video without using digital compression methods.
But if you record a fast moving object, it can appear at one place in the "even" picture, and at another in the "odd" one. As a result, you get a "striped" picture. The Deinterlace filter transforms the mixed frames into normal video frames and removes interlaced horizontal raws.
Applying the Deinterlace filter is generally very simple:
1. Open your file with Movavi VideoSuite by clicking and select your file.
2. Double click the Deinterlace filter to add it to the list of Applied filters:

3. That's basically it! We've cleared our video off interlace artifacts. Switch to the Split mode of previewing to compare the result with the original video:

Notice: the video got much sharper and without complicated adjustments.
