TMPG-IVTC: Advanced patterns

[mysticgohan17]

I'm doing inverse telecine on a music video and here's the pattern

1010101000

The last 1 is an interlaced frame that needs to be deinterlaced, but I dont want to bother going through the whole video and using even field deinterlace everytime that frame comes up. Is there a way I can do something like this so TMPG automatically knows that frame should be deinterlaced?

1010102000 or 1010103000

Advice is appreciated.

well....I don't know if there is a better way but I will tell you my trick.

I enter the pattern just as you have done then I click "check" and I choose a clean frame that is close to the interlaced frame and select it. then I deselect the interlace frame and hit the "check" button again until I get to the end.

The pattern I use is:

10101000101010001010100010101010101000

It shows a dead frame every 90th or so, which i think you will find is much better than your current pattern

Have you fed your video into DVD2AVI, pressed F5, and see what type of video it is?
Seems you have a "Mixed" (Hybrid) video.

Select Inverse 3:2 pulldown for encode mode. If you hover over the selection it explains what it does. Keep the frame rate as 29.97, input type as interlaced, do not de-interlace, no need to IVTC either.

I use this for most of my TV show caps. They almost never follow a set pattern. Save the encode log, and it will tell something like 34567/39567 Frames out Frames in. So you can see the result of selecting the Inverse 3:2 pulldown. TMPG also does this on the fly, no need to wait for it to pre analize every frame. You do take a very slight speed hit though. Without inverse 3:2 an encode could take 55 minutes, with that encode mode selected, it may take 58 minutes.
