Hi
I'm ripping a DVD bought in the US using SmartRipper and trying to encode it back as XSVCD using DVD2AVI and TMPGENc as suggested in one of the guides of this site. Everything is working, apart from the fact that I get interlacing artifacts after the rips and these are quite annoying. What I'd like to know is:
1) I want to watch the XSVCD on TV. Will the artifacts go away?
2) If not, is there a way not to get the artifacts in ripping?
3) can it be cause it is an NTSC film and I am trying to re-encode as PAL?
I know TMPGenc has a filter who can deinterlace, however I've seen it somewhat degrade the quality so I am trying to understand if there is a more clever way.
Thanks

I don't understand why you are trying to deinterlace it. XSVCD is MPEG2 which supports interlacing. You are planning to watch this on your DVD player right? So why bother deinterlacing it.

Interlaced looks poor on your PC but fine on your TV, I tested it this morning.
Odds are that a progressive scan TV will still do interlaced for compatability reasons.
Is the time to deinterlace worth the benefit? -
I did not know interlaced would look good on the TV. I'll try this evening.
If it works for me as well, I can save time and quality.
Thanks to all of you and Ciao. -
You TV is interlaced, your PC monitor isn't (unless it's about 6 years old). You PC monitor doesn't deal with interlacing very well, and you TV can't deal with non-interlaced video at all (unless it's progressive). VCD's ( a non-interlaced format ) get artifically interlaced when displayed on a stand alone player (actually they just display the same thing in both fields).
Remember, just because it looks bad on you PC doesn't mean it is. I have horrible artifacting due to my old and soon to be replaced video card, but it doesn't show up on another computer. SVCD's look horrible but look beautiful on my standalone/TV.To Be, Or, Not To Be, That, Is The Gazorgan Plan
