Okay, some questions about avisynth and decomb (from a complete newbie=)).

1. The right way to load a vob is through the mpeg2dec.dll and
a .d2v file, right? Because when I tried DirectShowSource, the
content was already deinterlaced. Because I have powerdvd installed
that does bobbing or something? (and I suppose decomb is preferred..
or is the directshow-deinterlacing good enough?).

2. I'm keeping it simple, so... telecide() for pal progressive(film)
content, telecide+decimate(5) for ntsc progressive stuff, and
fieldDeinterlace() for pal nonfilm stuff.. is it that simple?

3. What about ntsc nonfim stuff... what do I do about that?

4. FieldDeInterlace works in a similar way to the smart
deinterlacer, right?

5. And when done, it is just to use virtualdub to save
as avi.. ?

Sorry for the many questions, but when you're a newbie you
always _KNOW_ you're doing something wrong.. =p

DirectShowSource have a problem with reporting correct number of frames and should be avoided.

Yes. Sometimes you need telecide+decimate(25) for pal-film, but most of the time everything will work as you described.

fieldDeinterlace will do just fine here too.

If I recall correctly, fieldDeinterlace is smartDeinterlace with some parameters removed.

Yes

So I'm pretty much on the right track, then!
