for anyone who uses pot player, it doesn't look like there is a de-interlacing method called inverse-telecine, or IVTC.

I believe IVTC is the best de-interlacing method that restores how the frames should actually look, rather than the other methods which basically "glue" or "stick" them together in various ways which won't look completely natural, so curious why it lacks this
option given vlc includes it.
