Deinterlace and configuration

Postby Gingko » 12 Nov 2008 20:55

Hello,

Is there a way to select some deinterlace mode and have this selection kept in such a way that I do not have to select it again each time I quit and reload VLC ?

I use version 0.9.6 now.
I didn't remember about having this problem with 0.8.x.

Best regards,

Gingko

Tools -> Preferences... (Show settings: All) Video -> Filters and tick Deinterlacing video filter from under Video output filter module. Then Video -> Filters -> Deinterlace and choose the default mode.

I see ...

Shouldn't it more simple to just being able to use Video -> Deinterlace, then selecting some mode, and having this automatically kept for the next restart ?

(especially knowing that, with the proposed method, the video looks like effectively deinterlaced, but the
Video -> Deinterlace still have the "Disable" item checked on restart)

Settings are reseted because 0.9.x re-recreates VOUT on every playlist item. There might be changes to this on future.

Strangely, when I check Video -> Filters -> Deinterlace & choose "Bob" for "Display deinterlace mode" then save, interlaced videos do play deinterlaced, but obviously NOT using the Bob method: the apparent frame rate is 25 fps (PAL), while with Bob, the apparent fps should be equal to the field per second rate, i.e. 50 for PAL.
When I deselect the default deinterlace filter, and "manually" select "Bob" deinterlacing during a file playback, I do get the expected result: a smooth, detailed image (50 fps apparent) !

In addition, when I select "Bob" instead of "Blend" for the default deinterlace mode for streaming, playing back a local HDV mpeg2 file results in a blinking green screen (GPU is Sapphire HD 4850).....the deinterlace method for "streaming" should have no effect on playback of local files, right ? And certainly not a corrupt green screen...

Am I missing important steps somewhere ?

(VLC 0.9.4 for Win32)

Have you tested 0.9.6? I am not sure what methods deinterlacer considers as streaming.
