PAL 1080p to PAL 576i with high quality motion compensated interpolation

Out of curiosity, may I ask you whether you have been successful with the interpolation of your clip. If so, which method/tool did you choose?

[hydra3333]

Hello and not successful, no. It was too far gone for anything I could throw at it to make it better. I lived with this (it may be wrong, but it did something).

SeparateFields() 
Deblock().deblock().deblock().deblock() 
Deblock_QED() #default quant1=24 
#SmoothD2(quant=4, qtype=4, num_shift=3, ncpu=4) 
#SmoothD2c(quant=4, qtype=4, num_shift=3, ncpu=4) 
Weave() 
AssumeTFF()  
# For RE-INTERLACING http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...41#post1110741  
#    AssumeTFF().SeparateFields().SelectEvery(4, 0, 3).Weave() -> TFF 
#  AssumeBFF().SeparateFields().SelectEvery(4, 0, 3).Weave() -> BFF 
#    AssumeTFF().SeparateFields().SelectEvery(4, 1, 2).Weave() -> BFF 
#    AssumeBFF().SeparateFields().SelectEvery(4, 1, 2).Weave() -> TFF  
QTGMC(Preset="Slow",EdiThreads=8,Sharpness=1.2,SLMode=1) # result is double framerate progressive, so re-interlate it later 
AddGrainC(var=2.0, uvar=0.5, hcorr=0.0, vcorr=0.0, seed=-1, constant=false, sse2=true)
Spline36resize(720,576)
LimitedSharpenFaster(smode=4,strength=100)
AssumeTFF() 
Blur(0,0.25).SeparateFields().SelectEvery(4,0,3).Weave() #reinterlace - ASSUMED TFF HERE # BLUR(0,1) per http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...08#post1488308

edit: oh, did you mean Interframe ? Yes, that worked.

This script contains resize but no crop while you wanted to crop, are you sure you didn't forget it ?

Thank you. It's a snippet of the script.

I found it better to resize before adding the grain.

Ah. I should have thought of that. Thanks.
