The only problem is that it leaves the lines around the characters broken on every other frame, giving the footage an ants-crawling-around-the-characters sort of effect. Granted, it is better than any of the others I tried, but I try to be as much of a perfectionist as time and circumstances (ie - my course schedule and budget) will allow. Here's what two neighboring frames look like, to give you an idea about what I'm talking about:
Here's the broken line
And here's the frame adjacent to the frame above:
It doesn't look like much of a problem until you see the footage in motion. I would prefer for all of the frames to look like the latter one. I fed a little footage through my editing program and rendered a sample with the same settings I would use for an AMV to play with it and see if I can fix it post-production, but so far I'm having no luck (plus, any of the filters slow it down so much I can't see what the movement looks like, even when I only use one).
So, what I want to know is either: a) Is there a way to fix this in post-AMV-production, and if so, how? OR b) Has anyone found a better technique (Avisynth code) for deinterlacing FLCL footage so it doesn't do that, and if so, what is it?
Any help I get is greatly appreciated.
I could have sworn it was order=1, but the broken line doesn't seem as pronounced in this filter when I change it to order=0 (though it is still there). It wasn't as noticeable in some of the other filters I tried, but I guess I lost track of which adjusts I had tried with which filters. My 4-5 hours of experimenting kinda got mushed together in my mind Guess I'll have to fiddle around with the filters some more, but that'll have to wait until after my calc 3 quiz tomorrow morning (good thing it's my only class tomorrow). For now I need sleep. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll post back here after I've played with it a little more.
