Using TDeint Override Function

[poncho765]

Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to convert some tv-shows I've captured to progressive XviD files. All the source clips are stock-standard telecined material. After using TFM and TDecimate to IVTC and restore the video to its original 24 FPS glory, my script usually matches about 10 interlaced frames.

Maybe you have seen my other thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1141633#post1141633), I have not had any luck with TIVTC's override function. I thought I'd have better luck with TDeint.

For example:
Frame 21996 (After TDecimate) is interlaced. So, I make my override file to de-interlace only this frame using blend deinterlacing (type=4):

Override File:
21996 t 4

I load the override file into my script:

LoadPlugin("dgdecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("TIVTC.dll")
LoadPlugin("TDeint.dll")
mpeg2source("d2v")
TFM(order=1)
TDecimate()
TDeint(mode=0,ovrdefault=1,ovr="override.txt")
Crop(14,10,-14,-8)
LanczosResize(608,448)


But when I open my script (with the override file added) in Virtualdubmod and I scroll to frame 21996, it's still interlaced.

Can someone please explain why overrides are not working? I've read the readme's 1001 times and I just can't make sense of it.


Any help is greatly appreciated!

The problem is that you are decimating before you are deinterlacing. Because your doing this, the frame that was at 21996, is now at something much smaller. If you absolutely have to deinterlace that frame, through your TDeint line before TDecimate.

If you've got a couple combed frames coming through, give Vinverse a whirl. I love it :)
