How to convert 30p to 30i

[ADLANCAS]

I have a video progressive video fps=29.97 NTSC that I´d like to convert to interlaced fps=29.97, but I´m not sure if the script that I use is right.

AssumeTFF() # or AssumeBFF() for BFF output
Tdeint(mode=1)
separatefields().selectevery(4,0,3).weave()

Could be done in that way ? or what?

You won't achieve much by bobbing progressive footage - your script will effectively do nothing to your video.

If you want to make truly interlaced video from progressive video, you'll need to mocomp to invent new frames.

To convert 30p to 30i:

Import ("MVBob.avs")
MVConv (60, 1) # or MVConv (60000, 1001) if its 29.97
AssumeTFF ()
SeparateFields ()
SelectEvery (4, 0, 3)
Weave ()

I´ll give a try, thanks.
