I'm capturing anime off of TV (NTSC) and trying to find a good way to deinterlace it.
I don't know if deinterlacer authors break it up into 2 different problems, but it seems to be it could be thought of as:
1) "Ghosting" effect where the two fields are widely divergent, causing it to appear that two frames are superimposed on top of each other
2) Smaller inter-field motion which merely makes objects look jagged
I've found TomsMoComp to be very effective on both counts and in fact the best I've seen at removing the ghost effect. It seems to keep a copy of the last "good" frame and simply serves it up when too much motion is happening. But it has a down side in that it gives all the horizontal fine lines a stairstepped look.
Smart-deinterlace and Deinterlace-smooth can be configured to leave more lines intact, but they do a poor job with ghosting, ending up looking only slightly better than the original interlaced source.
So I wanted to know what deinterlacers other anime-encoders are using or maybe what settings you find to work best? |

I personally don't record it interlaced. I set the ATI MMC to record it non-interlaced. I don't see any traces of interlacing in vDub before or after re-encoding it so it seems to work. |

That sounds really useful, I'd be interested in knowing what kind of capture card you have? Although mine doesn't have that feature  |
