Sounds like something that could have been caused by wrong field order.
Check your authoring program - or the MPEG-2 encoder program, if you use
an external one - for field order settings.
It could also be caused by careless resizing of interlaced material.
Never resize interlaced material unless you know exactly what you're
doing.

You would probably like to read up on interlacing:

Even though you might be tempted to deinterlace the material (and there
are actually some misguided web pages out there that recommend this as a
"magic bullet" type of generic solution for all interlacing-related
problems) this is not a good idea. If your source material is interlaced
video, and if it is going to end up on a DVD - which is a medium that,
when properly authored, can retain interlaced video and play it back
flawlessly - you should keep your video interlaced. It's not the
interlace itself that is at fault here - it's some misadjusted setting
in one of the programs you're currently using.
