There's a 10.8.2 = update.

Hello all,

I = am using AE to scale 1 minute PSA spots from HD (1920x1080i ProRes QT) to letter box =  NTSC (720x 486 QT ProRes).
AE CS6 delivers good quality results. There = is occasional NTSC aliasing along diagonal lines in the = video.  It was suggested to try adding a slight blur to improve the = end results.
