Deinterlacing

[Bigfoot (Sweden)]

Is there a filter that simply shifts every second row one pixel to the left (or right)? I have tried some different deinterlacing-filters but can't get any of them to do that.

You should be able to do that with avisynth, I dont think there is a vdub filter to do it.

Do you know where I can find out how? (My experiences with AviSynth is limited to ten minutes or so...). I get this result when I am capturing from vhs (TV is fine) and it would be nice if it could be corrected.

could you provide a sample-clip?

I just found out how to do it in VirtualDub:
1. Interlacefilter, unfold mode
2. Crop one pixel to the left and one to the right
3. Interlacefilter, unfold mode
(And flipfilter*2 if the direction is wrong)

Bigfoot,

What de-interlace filter are you using?

I thought I had tried all of them, but I can't ever recall having a 'fold' 'unfold' option?

Thanks.

That's the VirtualDub internal "deinterlace" filter. Look at the last two options on its filter configuration dialog.
