Apply Yadif using complex filter in FFmpeg

[panzerIV]

Hi

I am trying to use a watermark and apply Yadif using complex filter, but I cannot figure out how to apply Yadif with the following syntax

ffmpeg -i "source:" -i C:\logo.png -c:v libx264 -preset veryfast -s 1920x1080 -b:v 4000k -minrate 4000k -maxrate 4000k -bufsize 11835k -crf 18 -acodec mp3 -ab 128k -filter_complex [0:v][1:v]overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10[out] -map [out] -f mpegts "dest"

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Just add yadif to the end of your filterchain. See "Filtergraph syntax."

thanks, but got an answer on FFMPEG forums,

this worked

-filter_complex "[0:v]yadif,scale=hd1080,setsar=1[b];[b][1:v]overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10"

There is simpler (IMHO) way - just use movie filter and no complex filter call required.

Side to this yadif is deinterlacer and as such must be added as first filter in chain.

thanks Pandy, I will have a look at that later
