HYBRID PROBLEM

[mrcoolekin]

I ripped a movie and it is a hybrid. The percentages were NTSC 15% and Film 85%. I frameserved it in 23.976fps and 29.97 fps. I encode the 23.976 fps using TMPGEnc with inverse telecine and put it on a VCD. When I played it on my DVD player it pauses every 1 second when the camera is moving forward. Then I encoded the 29.97 the same way but without the inverse telecine and it played smoothly. My question is: Is this all right or even correct? I should never deinterlace my dvd rip right and what priorty should I make the Microsoft MPEG-1 Decoder since I can only make vcd's?

Not all DVDs are the same. So theres no 1 answer. On some I can leave it alone, some I have to deinterlace, some I have to deal with Tecline, some I have to deal with Tecline and deinterlacing.

MPEG 1 doesn't support interlacing OR 24 fps.

The big question is - is your audio in sync.

[mrcoolekin]

Yes the audio is always sync, but I'm not really sure because I only did clips of it. So now, why doesn't MPEG-1 support interlacing or 24 fps? I only deinterlace because when I look at it in the deinterlacing option in TMPGEnc, it seems like I have to for no reason. What does noise reduction do and will it look better in anime?

For anime you really need to use AVISynth to fix the video. I've tried doing anime w/o AVISynth and the results aren't good. You'll probably want to use Telecide and possible decimate w/ anime sources, and you might want to run some filters on it too, like convolution3d. IMO Anime is the hardest to reincode.
