only part of my clip is bobbed

[Amateur]

sorry for all of the posts. i try to find this info on my own but when i type in bobbing/source bob/partial bob, and get back over 500 results, it's difficult to find what is specific to my question


here is something i think is kind of strange. i have read that deinterlacing can cause bobbing because the lines represent slightly different parts of the picture thus causing the new deinterlaced picture to appear to flicker up and down rapidly (i hope i understand this correctly.)

my problem however is i think my actual source has bobbing. (two sources provided below)

see it switch from being stable to bobbing - http://www.mediafire.com/?tzfuur827nk2aad

see it switch from bobbing back to being stable - http://www.mediafire.com/?03qftgek2ds4vqd

is there a way to remove this bobbing if it's part of the source and not a result of deinterlacing or is it something i just have to deal with? a majority of my output file looks perfectly fine, it's just these few minutes towards the beginning that gives me a headache when watching it.

That's pretty strange, alright. I don't think I've seen anything quite like that before. However, Stab does a good job of removing that video bounce. You'll just have to crop away 2 edges when done:

TFM().TDecimate()
Stab()

thank you.

i'm trying to use stab but it requires some DePan thing but when i try to download that from the external avisynth filter page (http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/DePan), the link only sends me to some Flirp! website instead. where can i get the required DePan filters?

Yeah, you're right. Fizick's site seems to be down. You can also get it from here:

http://avisynth.org/warpenterprises/

The package includes Depan.dll and DepanEstimate.dll, both of which you need to make Stab work. You'll also need the Repair.dll and the Stab.avsi.

hey great thanks. i bookmarked that site now. stab seems to have been the answer. and it doesn't appear to mess up the non-bobbing parts either.

i'm glad it at least threw at least one other person off as being odd and not a standard occurance.
