ok, try cvs now, with the "sb" option of pullup set to -1. i.e. -vf
pullup=1:1:4:4:-1. this will make pullup very lenient about breaks, so
be sure to check it with the other (sane) content too and make sure it
doesn't pass nonsense interlaced frames through! i tested on the clip
you gave me and it does perfect (except for the broken frame when
wakaba finishes crossing the bridge).
