need deinterlacing advice

[chilledinsanity]

Hey, I have a weirdass encode I'm doing (The last half of The Odyssey DVD).

Here's what happens, if I use force film in DGIndex, the first half of the movie is great, the bottom half alternates between 2 progressive frames and 2 interlaced frames, haven't come across this before. I also tried using IVTC instead of forced film, it basically does the same thing. If I run a deinterlacer AFTER doing IVTC, I get repeated frames, but if I run after force film, then it looks okay-ish. So far Kernel deinterlacing probably looks the best, but it's not that great.

My question is, what deinterlacer would you recommend for this? (Either Avisynth or Vdub plugin)

-Film content
-alternates every 2 frames between interlaced and progressive

Also, since the interlacing alternates in a definite pattern, is there a way to tell a deinterlacer to ignore the progressive frames?


Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

do you know of the decomb package of neuron2?
telecide & decimate will help you

[chilledinsanity]

yes, that's actually what I'm using for the IVTC method, I've tried playing with the parameters, but none of the results have been terribly good. So far, the best method I've found is using force film in DGindex, then running kernel deinterlace afterwards, but even that leaves something to be desired.

can you make available an UNPROCESSED VOB snippet?

[chilledinsanity]

Sure, if you know of a program I can split my existing VOB with. I'm about to go to bed, so I'll try and post it later. In the meantime, I'm really liking the results of TDeint.dll. It's almost perfect aside from minor flickering of not fully deinterlaced frames every now and then. I think if I figure out which values to tweak I'll have it.

try ChopperXP to cut the VOBs
