which deinterlacing filter should be used?

[slipknot!]

I want to encode a DVD9 to *.mkv using megui (x264). The source is interlaced:
Format : MPEG Video
Format version : Version 2
Format profile : Main@Main
Format settings, Matrix : Default
Codec ID : V_MPEG2
Codec ID/Info : MPEG 1 or 2 Video
Duration : 50s 533ms
Bit rate mode : Variable
Nominal bit rate : 7 300 Kbps
Width : 720 pixels
Height : 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 4:3
Frame rate : 29.970 fps
Standard : NTSC
Colorimetry : 4:2:0
Scan type : Interlaced
Scan order : Top Field First
Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.705
source (http://rapidshare.com/files/267019764/MJ_BUCHAREST_sample.mkv.html)

"Analyse" chooses yadif. May be I should use yadif (bob)? Or something I don't know, I'm encoding interlaced video for the first time

Your post says that the format is "MPEG Video" but you linked to a MKV. Why?

Since when MPEG-2 can't be stored in a MKV container? :confused:

MPEG-2 + PCM audio is what you find on some Video-DVD's, for example.

@slipknot!

Please explain why you say you are converting *from* a DVD9 but you link an MKV as source. Where did you get the MKV?

@others

Please wait for clarification before responding further.
