[MPlayer-users] [BUG] kerndeint doesn't work with x264 but works with lavc

[Guillaume POIRIER]

Hi folks,
If I use MEncoder with that command line:
mencoder VTS_02_1.VOB -ovc x264 -nosound -vf kerndeint -v

MPEG Stream reached EOF
ds_fill_buffer: EOF reached (stream: video)  
demux_mpg_probe returned file_format 2
MPEG-PS file format detected.
Searching for sequence header... OK!

Exiting...


and that's it!

but the command line:
mencoder VTS_02_1.VOB -ovc lavc -nosound -vf kerndeint -v

has no problem, just like doing:

mencoder VTS_02_1.VOB -ovc x264 -nosound -vf kerndeint,scale -v

also works nice.

ShadowJK and myself think that this may be a colorspace error. What do
you think?

Off course, if you need more informations, I'll be glad to give you some more.
