About the Doom9 DivX 3.11 Nandub SBC guide

[kodd3]

It says in step 2 (DVD2AVI), that if you have a PAL movie and its interlaced, and the Swap Field Order doesnt work, that you should leave it as it is.

Then later at step 5a (resizing in nandub), when your at the resize filter setting, it says "Don't activate interlaced unless you have an interlaced source (PAL only, NTSC should be IVTC'd instead) and plan to use a deinterlacing filter after resizing."

And plan to use a deinterlacing filter after resizing.

Im new to this... but PAL interlaced movies shouldnt be IVTC:ed right? Thats for the NTSC movies (Correct me if im wrong). They should be deinterlaced right?

Then my question is, is there a deinterlace guide on the Doom9 page? Or does anyone know of a good deinterlace guide? Or could explain how to for me?

BTW i tried the internal nandub deinterlace filter with the Blend Fields Together (best) setting, but i think i got some unwanted side-effects for doing that... i've posted a message about that already if your curious. http://rilanparty.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11544

Thanks alot in advance.

Hey there,

Um im no expert but ive done a few PAL interlaced ones. I dont IVTC i just use DVD2AVI and save project then VFAPI it to get a vitual avi.

In Nandub i use the internal deinterlace filter in blend mode. And Everything comes out ok (at least i think so) but if you want to try and get it sharper use WARPSHARP on a very low setting after the deinterlace filter that might help.

The other big factor is the quality of the original DVD im encoding dirty dancing at the mo and i can tell u the original is not the hottest while Amistad which i did earlier was a much better quality original.

Hope it helps

Hi-You Can Find Warpsharp here (http://sauron.mordor.net/dgraft/), and then go to "Other Filters and Tools".

Hey there,

Well after some thought there are two other filters that would work well too on PAL interlaced movies.

Use Smart Deinterlacer and Smart Resizer instead of the normal internal ones. they should work wonders.

Look around on the forum threads under nandub newbies or advanced and there should be some links for the download of those two filters

LOL!!!

ok this is how i de-interlace a pal source and it works fine, that NO ghosting/bluring/shittyness, it produces a clean image.

Smart de-interlacer and all those i have seen blur the image in motion.

use this .avs for avisynth

LoadPlugin("C:\Location_Of\MPEG2DEC.dll")
video=mpeg2source("C:\Location_of\dvd2aviproject.dv2")
audio=AVISource("C:\Loaction_of\wavfile.wav")
AudioDub(video, audio)
SeparateFields
SelectOdd
BilinearResize(720,540) (orginal size of DVD)

you MUST have a wav file, any old wav file, but u must have one or the script will not load. Just encode without audio and add it later.
