bob and weave?

[straliss440]

I capture full screen (720x576) mpeg2 using windvr3 and a wintv go pci card through composite connection. This is mainly from sky digital. Captures excellent (video and audio) but there are some slight compression artifacts (sp) in the usual high speed/fast cam pan scenes. Now I`ve done a fair bit of reading here and there and have learned that due to bandwidth issues some digital channels can be 2nd or 3rd hand compressed by the time it gets to my TV. This obviously has an effect on my final recording, but it appears that the problem I have is an interlacing one, albeit slight. Again after reading around it would seem that windvr has a built in deinterlacer but is not exactly perfect and to get around this it seems the best way is to deinterlace using bob and weave. I`ve seen hints on how to do this in virtualdub but can`t find anything on how to do this in tmpgenc.
Anyone give me an idea which deinterlace setting is equivelent to bob and weave in tmpgenc?

Even-Odd field (field, adaptation) might be what you need to try. It doubles the framerate like bob does. But the standard double deinterlace is good enough in tmpgenc.

Yep , that one did it. Cheers mate.

Don't thank me yet. Make sure the final frame rate is not double. It should be 25 or 29.97.

Yep, Frame rate is still 25 fps

I even tried this on a couple of clips I`ve still got on my HD that I didn`t think were interlaced, but there is a noticable difference on motion scenes.

You could always frameserve in virtualdub after bob and weave into tmpgenc if you have motion problems.
