Can you perhaps give the script you are currently using with FixblendIVTC (args) so I can see
what you have, also posting an additional longer clip might help, say about 10-20MB.
Might not be able to do anything tomorrow, but will come back to it the day after, I think.
Cheers.
Thanks for all the help!

I used FixBlendIVTC exactly as Didée posted, i.e., with no arguments.

Please don't spend any more time on this because I am almost finished with this project. If I have to do any more of this work, I will almost certainly use ExBlend because it is about 10x faster than the FixBlend function call, and seems to be more stable. The slight difference in denoising can easily be remedied in many ways, and is not a big deal for this project because the video is rather pathetic to begin with.

Finally, just to answer your question, here is a sample of one of the scripts. I always tune each script to the source, but they are all roughly the same as this one.
Code:
Import("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\FixBlendIVTC.avs")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\MeGUI\tools\ffms\ffms2.dll")
VId=FFVideoSource("E:\Stanford Historical Video\fla42.flv").AssumeFPS(30000,1001).crop( 4, 24, 0, -24)
Aud=FFAudioSource("E:\Stanford Historical Video\fla42.flv", 0)
AudioDub(Vid, Aud)
blur(0,1).FixBlendIVTC().TDecimate()
FWIW, the film I'm transferring was taken at a series of campus college protests in 1970 and 1971. I was briefly the photographer for the campus newspaper and have still photos in my collection that I took at these exact same events.
