Is this an interlacing problem?

[homey]

Hello,

I just did a rip of Deer Hunter (I used DVD2SVCD on this one, CCE as encoder), and during playback, I notice some vertical lines through any scenes with a lot of motion. Say, for example, a guy is wearing a white shirt, and he's jumping up and down or moving side to side... you can see the image made up of multiple vertical lines. The effect is sort of like looking through miniblinds.

Some of the settings I used were:

DVD2AVI - Force film - on
DVDRip - I used vStrip
CCE - Multipass VBR, Image Quality Priority - 17, Anti-noise filter - 2
Bitrate - 2264
Avisynth - Simple Resize

Any ideas what I did wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Yep, that's an interlace problem.

Do a search in the forum here or at www.doom9.org for interlace. I used the "turn off zigzag" and "progressive" boxes in the cce section of dvd2svcd, and that fixed the problem. But this doesn't work for everyone.

Thanks for the reply. I tried the settings you suggested with "The Edge", and lo and behold, no more problem. Now, what I don't understand is - why the default settings work on some movies and not on others. More to the point... how to tell which movies the defaults won't work on.

I'm off to read up on interlacing

Thanks!

I've had the same problem...and it's just been lately. And sometimes it's just in the beginning of the movie, and goes away after a few minutes. Usually the only way I find out is after I've ripped it once, check it out, ugh, it's interlaced.

Glad this worked for you, it seems to be the easiest solution. I haven't had to go any further, yet.

The image quality priority setting the higher the better? Changing it to 100 better than 17?
