I saw from a link to a picture in your original post that it is interlaced. 
What did you use to record the source material? DV is always BFF, but MPEG-2 
can be either and must be signalled properly. Since kdenlive/mlt/ffmpeg is 
doing progressive encoding, it would have been signalled as progressive. 
However, with interlacing in the source and no good deinterlacer, you will 
get this result.

Please do and report to us.
BTW, what format are you using between kdenlive and avidemux?
