Inverse Telecine in CCE?

[Hoagie]

I was wondering if it was possible to perform on Inverse Telecine on a video source in CCE?

I've been using TMPGEnc up until now, but want to give CCE a try for the speed. The only problem I have is that the sources I am using (VOB->DVD2AVI, and then VFAPI in the case of CCE) is a mixed source -- it jumps between NTSC and FILM. Most of the time a single invserse telecine pattern will normally fix this, but not always... making it difficult to just set things to FILM in DVD2AVI (as it doesn't work).

Is the only way to pull a 29.97 source down to 23.97 in CCE is to send it in that way?

Thanks for any help!

I think you will have to frame serve either with AVISynth or Virtual Dub. AviSynth is faster and since your checking out CCE for the speed you'll probably want to use this. Check out this guide http://www.doom9.org/decomb.htm for using the decomb filter for IVTC.

You can also use TMPGENc to do the IVTC by setting up a TMPGEnc project as though you were going to IVTC and encode with TMPGENc, then run VFAPI (or possibly Link2) to get a "pseudo-avi" file that CCE can encode.

Many thanks for both the suggestions!

I think I am going to try the TMPGEnc route first (since I know how), and do some quality testing. If that works out I'll worry about learning the AVISynth plugin.
