Post deinterlace problems from a newbie

[cireogle]

Ok, so VirtualDubMod tells me all the frames in the piece of video I want to export are progressive and not interlaced, I have the HuffYUV compression set up just like I was told to, now the Avi footage I've made out of that seems jerky still, but this time it's either skipping or pausing frames at places, it's not noticable unless you investigate, and on footage with slow movement it barely shows up at all.

While this problem does show up on normal anime I'm using Advent Children (PAL) to get it right. One of the first places I've been confused is where the tutorial says to set the vthresh above the matching number but RF tells me it should go below, and since I still can't see what difference dthresh makes I've left it out. I also remember reading somewhere in one of the AMVApp documents that decimate shouldn't be used for Pal, though I can't find that bit anymore, and lastly, even though I know the Assume FPS is supposed to be 24 FPS I changed it to 25 cause my Adobe Premier always exports at 25.

Code: Select all

mpeg2source("C:\FINAL_FANTASY_VII\VIDEO_TS\FFVII AC.d2v")
Telecide(order=1,vthresh=216,post=4)
LanczosResize(720,432)
AddBorders(0,72,0,72)
AssumeFPS(25)

-I think that's from the Cloud vs Sephiroth battle, since vthresh is up to 216 it probably is.

In the Jerky video section of RF it says that it could just be my computer, and while exporting through Adobe Premier does seem to tone down the jerkiness a little, it's still not perfect. I must be doing a hundred things wrong but I don't know what they are.

If it's PAL footage, the order most likely is 0 (BFF), not 1 (TFF). Try to set "guide=2", and leave the vtresh at the default value. The higher you set it, the more interlaced frames will slip through. From the result you can start to adjust it.

Btw, The Decomb package is outdated, try TIVTC instead.

No it's definately 1, I think I might have just gone ahead and put it as 1 for AC but using Peacemaker it was definately 1.

Thanks I'll try that.

I've downloaded TIVTC and read up on it a bit, but VirtualDubMod doesn't seem to recognise TFM. I don't have to reinstall AMVApp do I?

did you remember to either
a: use loadplugin("path to file.dll")
or b: put the plugin(s) into avisynth's plugins folder?

[cireogle]

no- lol, sorry.
