Deinterlacing

[falconfighter]

I'm having real problems deinterlacing DVD source... It's Star Trek... And that means single-pixel stars... which means a headache watching the stuff I'm getting.
First script I got to produce reasonable-quality stuff:

LoadPlugin("D:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3dg.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\avisynth plugs\avisynth_c.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\avisynth plugs\dgbob.dll")
LoadCPlugin("C:\avisynth plugs\smartdecimate.dll")
MPEG2Source("C:\batchripper\temp\1x03.d2v")
assumetff()
a=DGBob(order=0, thresh=60)
SmartDecimate(tel=.25, bob=a)

Does anyone have any improvements? Would it help if I served a 1000 frame MPEG source to convert off of?

do you have NTSC or PAL - Video ?

if it is PAL, you have to use restore24 to get watchable results.

and yes, a sample would be nice.


EDIT: ohhhhhhhhh
what do I see there?!?
dgbob with a threshold of 60....
That really hurts.

Please use some other bob-method, that gives much better results.
Like *advertise mode on* my bobmatcher() *advertise mode off* ;)
or for faster results the simple kernelbob.

Hey, be a bit more careful with advertising. The next step on this way is to send SPAM-Mails! :D

@falconfighter
Try scharfis Methode, it works. ;)

NTSC.
Example:
mpeg.webhop.net
links directly to an example video.

Where can I get KernelBob or bobmatcher?

I do not see the need for deinterlacing here, because your source-mpeg is already progressive!

Hmmm... I get scanlines when I encode to XviD with just a Mpeg2dec3dg.dll and MPEG2Source. Am I just screwed up?

I assume you've used DVD2AVI incorrectly.

I think you shopuld use the force-film feature.

Please read one of those (non-rare) DVD2AVI Guides
