Best way to capture from VCR. Avoid IVTC

[dianita]

This year I'd like to have on VCD's all 2006 F1 Races. I plan on recording them to my VCR without the ads of course to DVD resolution. But in the past, when I proceed to encode the DVD file to a VCD, TMPGEnc says that it will do Inverse Telecine. That process slows down a lot the encoding time.

What software allows me to capture in full DVD quality from VCR and then reencoding that video in VCD without doing that IVTC ?

You must IVTC. VCD is progressive, your source (and assumed "full DVD quality" capture) is interlaced.

You could do a crappy deinterlace, but it won't speed things up much, and it'll look 100x worse.

VCD is low res, low quality. Why bother?

So it's better to burn the captures in DVD format?

Yeah dvd blanks are so cheap these days why bother with vcd? Also so many people have dvd players its hard to find them without one. And besides they'd have a dvd player before they'd have a standalone vcd player.

Just capture straight to dvd mpeg then you just author the mpeg and burn it. Simple and easy.
