Good Smart Deinterlace Filter for VirtualDub?

To use avisynth just open notepad, type the commands and save as .avs Use the DGIndex .d2v file in a script like this: # the lines with a # will be ignored by avisynth # PLUGINS LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\DGMPGDec\DGDecode.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynthPlugins\decomb.dll") # SOURCE mpeg2source("C:\DVD\YourMovie.d2v") # DEINTERLACING (1) FieldDeinterlace(blend=false) # CROPPING (Left,Top,Right,Bottom) crop(2,76,716,424) # RESIZING (Width,Hight) LanczosResize(720,288) The .avs file can then be opened in virtualdubmod and saved in fast recompress mode.

TheBlueTree Of course if you double the framerate, it will make the file bigger (usually about 50%). But you don't have to double it. Try to keep original framerate and if the movie playback is smooth enough, you're done. I have good experiences with DgBob deinterlace filter. It has both modes - original and double framerate.

Wow, that made so much sense, I now see the difference thanks! Can you tell me what this means: 29.970fps, every 4th and 5th frames are interlaced. Goes like this: 1 2 3 4i 5i 1 2 3 4i 5i 1 2 3 4i 5i ... It's telecined I suppose, anything you can think to tell me?
