Hi, I'm a noob when it comes to particular ways of de-interlacing.
I'm using the Hybrid GUI & need to find a good method for converting interlaced DVDs.
From what I've read its good to upside the source before de-interlacing?
Are there any scripts for a high quality 'all round' ' QTGMC?
I'm not too fussy if it takes longer to encode either...

Cheers.

Are there any scripts for a high quality 'all round' ' QTGMC? I'm not too fussy if it takes longer to encode either... Try the defaults and see if they are OK for you. If not, start tweaking.

Be sure that your DVDs are truly interlaced and not telecined before blindly applying a deinterlacer.

Which may mean nothing at all and produce worse encodes than if you had analyzed it yourself and set up your own filtering.

Can it tell the difference between hard and soft telecine and know what to do with each? Can it spot fieldblending and know to unblend rather than blindly deinterlace (I'd bet money it can't)? Can it spot true hybrid material? If it's anything like the Handbrake analyzer, don't trust it. Nothing beats your eyes for analyzing video.

But maybe it really is a great tool as I've never even heard of it, much less used it.
