Deinterlace or IVTC?

[naz69]

Hi,

My friend wanted to backup this movie (sample below), and asked me to help couse he couldn't figure out the type of the material as it occured i couldn't either. It appears that it consists of 5 interlaced frames and one progressive one, but some times the progressive one happens to have some combing too.

I tried using TomsMoComp on it and treating it like a pure ntsc, the output has quite smooth movement but with some ghosting in it :(

Here's the vob sample (http://anonym.to/?http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0JLZ0WQC7VCMK3PQMKK5KM2ZE2).

If someone who knows how to solve this problem could post the apropriate avs here i'd be very greateful.

Thx in advance.

Fieldblending. Start with restore24 and Crestore, though I haven't actually checked for which is better for this. If those fail, there might not be much you can do about it (although Scharfis knows all the tricks). Don't deinterlace or ivtc beforehand.

Hi, after a few trys I cant get restore 24 to work. Not only the gosting is still there but the output fps seems to be 28.743 now.

Heres the script that I used:
Import("restore24.avs")
LoadPlugin("MaskTools-v1.5.8.dll")
LoadPlugin("DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("decomb.dll")
LoadPlugin("tdeint.dll")
LoadPlugin("leakkerneldeint.dll")
loadplugin("avisynth_c.dll")
loadcplugin(smartdecimate.dll")
loadCplugin("ibob.dll")

movie = mpeg2source("movie.d2v",cpu=4,iPP=true)
a2=r24kernelbob(movie,0)
b2=TDeint(movie,mode=1,tryweave=false)
restore24(a2, b2)

Maybe I'm using it wrong. Could you give me some more suggestions or correct my avs please.

Thx in advance.

If your source is ntsc you have also to set the right decimating values. You can try three thinks and choose your fovourite:
Import("restore24.avs")
LoadPlugin("MaskTools-v1.5.8.dll")
LoadPlugin("DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("decomb.dll")
LoadPlugin("tdeint.dll")
LoadPlugin("leakkerneldeint.dll")
loadplugin("avisynth_c.dll")
loadcplugin(smartdecimate.dll")
loadCplugin("ibob.dll")

movie = mpeg2source("movie.d2v",cpu=4,iPP=true)
a2=r24kernelbob(movie,0)
b2=TDeint(movie,mode=1,tryweave=false)
restore24(a2, b2,1250,2997)
Import("Crestore.avs")
LoadPlugin("mt_masktools.dll")
LoadPlugin("tdeint.dll")

tdeint(mode=1)
Crestore(rate=25)
LoadPlugin("repal.dll")
LoadPlugin("tdeint.dll")

tdeint(mode=1)
repal()
I´m not able to have a look at your sample here, so the setting are just the defaults, but these scripts you can start with.

The source has undergone speedup before the blendconversion (PAL 'master'), so the numr/deno values for Restore24 have to be numr=2500 & deno=5994.
Edit: Ah, BS. Infact that's the same as MOmonster had posted. Sorry.

The old R24 doesn't handle NTSC input all too good. Using the (still not existing ;) ) RC1 version (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=774197#post774197) of Restore24 with plain defaults:
mpeg2source("D:\other\sample_(FILM-2-NTSC-Blending).d2v")
crop(8,32,-8,-32,true)

restore24(numr=2500,deno=5994,ldmp=32.0)
produces this result (http://rapidshare.de/files/19044503/sample_Restore24.rar.html).

Seems fine so far. Deinterlacing & XviD encoding both were just quick & dirty, however, and should be set to "better" (slower) settings.

Thank you Didée your solution worked like a charm, and sry for late response ;)
