As source I have an MPG file mixed progressive and telecined with standard pattern PPPII.

Actually I studied how to inverse-telecine the file using mencoder, however even if I'm able to correctly do it (using -vf pullup,softskip), the output quality, using the following command, is bad:
I get some square artifacts each 5 secs.

COMMAND:
/Users/video/Desktop/lastbinary200505/mencoder file_original.mpg -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -vf scale=720:480,pullup,softskip -srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=98 00:vbitrate=5000:keyint=18:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192 :aspect=16/9 -ofps 24000/1001 -o file_destination.mpg

Or alternatively I've used the lossless huffyuv codec. This one works great but as there is no QT HUFF codec I can only view it with VLC or I need ffmpeg for a second conversion before usit it into FCP.

COMMAND:
/Users/video/Desktop/lastbinary200505/mencoder file_original.mpg -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=huffyuvred=2:format=422P:vstrict=-1 -vf pullup,softskip,hqdn3d=0:0:3,scale=720:480 -sws 9 -ofps 24000/1001 -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -o file_destination.avi


Isn't it possible to improve the first command line so that the result will be the best quality?

Thanks.
