I have found very little information on -vop, other than its use in
rescaling frames. I'm not necessarily looking to resize, the -npp lb was
simply to deinterlace so I don't get the "streaking" effect during
movement on images taken from television. I looked on the mailing list,
the web page and can't find anything. If I'm overlooking it, please for
a link?

I have in the past, but not today. It makes it much more hit-or-miss
getting it the right size to fit on a CD.

I wasn't aware of the difference. I will try this.

Due to the nature of my recordings (record-postprocess-burn to CD-delete
from HD), I don't have an exact date. However, I downloaded and
installed pre6 the day it was released or the day after. This would have
been approximately 2002.08.06.
