Black-white horizontal lines

[wiggle]

Even on the original dvd, there are black/white horizontal lines which are visible throughout the movie. When I play the DVD in PowerDVD the video is fine, but when I play it on VLC Player or Windows Media Player Classic it shows the lines. When I turn on Deinterlace -> X in VLS Player, the video is good again. When I burn it and play it on my TV, the video is also fine.

I think it's interlaced lines. I tried to deinterlace it with alternate scan encode but that didn't made any difference. I've never had this and don't really know what to do. I've attached a preview below.

What should I do to make the video good, or is it fine? Thanks in advance for the help.

Your image isn't visible yet but I would guess it is interlaced. PowerDVD is deinterlacing it automatically. VLC is deinterlacing it because you have told it to. If your TV is a standard CRT one, it shows video interlaced, so it looks correct. If you TV is an LCD then it, too, is deinterlacing it automatically.

Just leave it as it is. You only need to worry about it if you are going to convert to a different frame size (e.g., for YouTube etc).

Thnx JohnnyMalaria,

But I want to rip my DVD with maximized compatibility, so I'd prefere to fix this. How should I do this?

[JohnnyMalaria]

It depends on what you want to do with the video after you have ripped it. Can you describe this?

Rip the dvd with Decrypter, strip unnecessary parts with vobblanker, create image, doitfast4u it, reauthorist, encode with cce, create script with reauthorist for scenarist, scenarist, replace old main movie by new with vobblanker.

Do you want to view the final version on a PC or on a TV? If a TV, what kind (CRT or LCD)?

I tried to deinterlace it with alternate scan encode but that didn't made any difference. That is not a deinterlacer. If you want to deinterlace, then use a deinterlacing filter.

That is not a deinterlacer. If you want to deinterlace, then use a deinterlacing filter.

where do i use this in the process? in docce4u?

[edit]
i noticed doitfast4u has a 'deint' option box. is that it?

i just want max compatibility like regular dvds which are good on all systems.. no matter LCD TV or PC

Also, if you have film content, it may be telecined and not interlaced, in which case you should do IVTC instead of deinterlacing.

okay, in order to try this, i should enable the 'IVTS' or 'Deint' option boxes in Doitfast4u?

I don't know anything about doitfast4u.

Your first step should be to find out the nature of your video source, i.e., is it telecined or interlaced. You can post a link to an unprocessed VOB fragment and we can tell you. Or you can educate yourself about video and figure that out yourself.

Personally, I'd leave it as is and let the TV etc deal with it.

Yeah but that's not what i'm looking for..

I've tried to fix by enabling the IVTC or Deint boxes in Doitfast4u but this didn't had effect, but I have the feeling like that's because these options didn't change any settings furtheron..
