Premiere CS6 60P video quality reduced ??

I have 1080 60P AVCHD footage.
On a 1080 60P sequence in Premiere Pro CS6 the footage is noticeably less sharp than it should be.
So I played the clips from the desktop Windows media player and it looks good and sharp.
Then I created a 1080 30P sequence in Premiere and dropped the clips in that and it looks good and sharp.
Why does it look so much worse in a 60p sequence? The footage was all shot at 60P?!
I don't know if it used to be good and something changed but I checked settings.
Or maybe since I usually edit 60P footage on a 30P timeline maybe I just never noticed it?
 
Was 1080P60 defined as part of the AVCHD spec. when CS6 was current? That was over a decade ago, yes? If that's true it might be defaulting your 60P footage (which it doesn't really understand) to 60i (which it does). That your footage looks OK in a 30p timeline makes me think it's something like this.
 
Thank you. I was thinking something like that too. But CS6 came with a preset for AVCHD 1080 60p wheras CS5 did not. So the format existed during the time of CS6.
 
Thank you. I haven't been able to get on the board for a while.
Yes I have it set to full, not 1/2 or 1/4 etc.
I render it out and the 60P export looks as good as the 30P export.
It appears to be a monitoring issue. Premiere just doesn't like to display 60P or I still have a setting wrong somewhere
 
CS6 program monitor is what it is: a preview window with no full quality playback.
Software is from 2013.....
