For a sexier name I am open to suggestions...
It's just that a couple of other folks also have adopted this name, it might get confusing to rename the script now.
fftw3.dll is not needed when DCT is not used (DCT=0), which is the default. Usually DCT=0 works fine, but for some rare (mostly anime) sources DCT=1 gives a much better quality, but at a very very low speed.
The jm_fps script only exposes the framerate to keep it as simple as possible. Maybe I should change the interface to also expose the block size and DCT. These 2 params are the ones a user wants to play with for difficult sources. But this might be beyond the scope of A2D...
Another thing you want to think about when integrating this into A2D:
For most helper plugins there are "modernized" versions (mostly written by pinterf) which add additional features like new colorspaces, high bitdepth and MT support. All these newer versions require SSE2 so they will not work on my computer. I also find them a little unstable, they are work in progress. The AIO package for mx_fps which I linked to contains older but stable versions of these plugins.

I believe that DVB-T2 will be 50fps only in PAL countries. I really do not like the fact that each European country now uses its own flavor of the standard. Germany was very late to introduce DVB-T2 so they figured to push ahead and use HEVC video and EAC3 and/or AAC-LATM audio. It took me a long time to establish a workflow for my conversions to AVC or DVD which keeps audio in sync.
