Hey folks
So, I use TDeint for my deinterlacing needs 90% of the time. And it does a great job!
There are areas where it isn't a good choice however, namely very fast content where there's a lot of flashing. Artifacts get through that can really kill the deal.
Now, obviously MCBob is a real killer. But it's so slow :) We all know that good processing takes time. I reserve MCBob for the really tough stuff, like auto racing.
So - what are some other good alternatives?
I have played with yadifmod, but I can't seem to get satisfactory results out of it. From what I understand, its arguments are similar to TDeint, but it requires an edi upsampled clip2. So, to bob-deinterlace with yadifmod you would do this:
AssumeBFF()
edi=separatefields.eedi2
YadifMod(mode=1, edeint=edi)
I seem to get inconsistent results using this code.
So, for now, yadifmod is on hold for my general usage.
Vanilla yadif doesn't seem to work for me either. It's a C plugin from what I understand, so it has to be explicitly loaded. When I try to load Yadif.dll (which lives in my plugins folder), both LoadCPlugin and LoadPlugin reject it. This is strange, since I have managed to use it previously, but on a different computer.
So, aside from these 3, what other deinterlacers do people use?
