[MPlayer-users] deinterlacing quality issues

[Andrew Henry]

I'm trying to encode an rawdv file into both xvid and x264 using
mencoder.  Im using mencoder 2:1.0~rc1-0ubuntu9 on Ubuntu 7.04 and the
source file is widescreen captured using Kino 1.0.0.

Im having major issues trying to deinterlace the movie.  It is a home
video and during motion there are heavy interlacing artefacts, so I
tried using -vf kerndeint, and this works, but at a substantial loss in
quality compared to if I omit this option.  I have tried -vf pp=ci and
pp=ac but these do not seem to deinterlace whatsoever.

Does anyone have any suggestions fow how best to deinterlace a rawdv file?

btw, the command I am using:

x264
------
mencoder "$infile" -ovc x264 -aspect 16:9 -vf harddup,scale=-10:-1
-x264encopts
subq=6:partitions=all:8x8dct:me=umh:frameref=5:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b:threads=2:pass=1:turbo=1
-nosound -of rawvideo -o "$file.h264"
mencoder "$infile" -ovc x264 -aspect 16:9 -vf harddup,scale=-10:-1
-x264encopts
subq=6:partitions=all:8x8dct:me=umh:frameref=5:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b:threads=2:pass=2
-nosound -of rawvideo -o "$file.h264"

XviD
------
mencoder "$infile" -ovc xvid -aspect 16:9 -vf
harddup,kerndeint,scale=-10:-1 -xvidencopts fixed_quant=4:qpel -oac
mp3lame -lameopts preset=192 -o "$file.avi"
