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 ?
