Dscaler 5 Mpeg2 Source

[WhiteRabt]

I've got it in my head that the Dscaler 5 Mpeg2 filter is the most
accurate, is it possible to use it with avisynth as an mpeg2 source?
Or could there be a better filter out there?

Also, is there somewhere I can see a comparison of different
deinterlacers and inverse telecine filters for different types of
video?

I'm out of hard drive space, so I'm biting the bullet and recompressing
my large dvd collection into xvid, quality based encoding.

You can use it with Avisynth via the latest Zoomplayer+latest non-SSE-SSE2 version of ffdshow.

Search for "deinterlace" "ivtc", and you'll find many threads about these.

*Hint: search for "Decomb"*

For Dscaler's MPEG2 filter, i don't think it's usable in Avisynth, someone has to make a port to make it work.

Maybe Socio is right, but that's not the "standard" use of Avisynth, because using it through ffdshow is mainly for post-processing purpose (i.e. after encoding), but WhiteRabt needs a classic pre-processing chain to feed encoder what he wants to encode, so i think that (for the moment) Dscaler filter is not usable.

It's a normal DirectShow filter...

Milan recently wrote an AviSynth plugin that allows you to use any ffdshow preset as an AviSynth filter and you can use the old Dscaler plugins in AviSynth, so this could be done, but using AviSynth's own filters probably makes more sense.
