problem w/ the man in the iron mask

[poopyhead]

weird problem in the man in the iron mask. basically, i treated the entire movie as FILM, progressive (since majority of it is 99% FILM)...however, there is a short period in the movie that is only 95% FILM, meaning NTSC has increased to 5%. normally, i wouldn't think it's very much, so i just treat it as FILm anywayz.

however, after forcing film in dvd2avi and encoding it like normal FILM type, i looked at my dvd rip during that portion where FILM dropped to only 95%, and it looked like it was completely NTSC (interlaced lines everywhere) if i use the deinterlace filter [blend (adaptive)], the lines would be gone, but the video would be jumpy, stuttering (characteristic of pure or nearly pure NTSC).

this is weird because it's only 5% NTSC, yet i could've sworn it was 100% NTSC for that short period of time. however, the rest of the movie was encoded as FILM with absolutely no problems.

so what should i do? should i just treat the entire movie as NTSC and turn forced film OFF in dvd2avi and use the NTSC template? i'm guessing that might have an adverse effect on the parts of the movie that's FILM, but since a part of the movie acts like NTSC, do i have much of a choice?

Sorry for late reply, as i'm defnetly not the expert on Film (I don't use it) I can only suggest you do the hurrible work of redoing DVD2AVI / TMPGEnc to create a regular NTSC and see how that works.

yea....did that, looked pretty good, and the scene where it acted like pure NTSC looked much, much better when treated as NTSC than FILM (no jumpyness)

Is your movie playing back good now when using NTSC instead of Film ?

yea...well...for that short scene where it acts like pure NTSC, yes..it looks much better than when i forced filmed it...however, the rest of the movie didn't really have much of a difference between NTSC or FILM (forced film on or off didn't make much of a difference...however, i think that treating it as FILM did have a minor quality improvement over treating it as NTSC....but i guess it doesn't really matter cuz of that short scene where i needed to make NTSC)
