Deinterlace options not saved

Postby Dreamer » 07 Apr 2012 21:51

Preferences -> Show All -> Video
- Deinterlace
- Deinterlace mode

I'm using Automatic and Yadif (2x) in preferences, saved, exit VLC, but everytime I start VLC with a file, these 2 options are set to "on", "Yadif" in menu. When I change it in menu or/and in preferences, it's changed back to "on", "Yadif".

Is it a bug? How to save these two options? I have to change them manually every time I start a new file.

Thanks.

VLC 2.0.1, Win Vista HP, SP2, 32 bit.

OK, thanks, so I found two items:

Code: Select all

# Deinterlace mode (string) deinterlace-mode=yadif2x # Streaming deinterlace mode (string) sout-deinterlace-mode=yadif
The second one is the one I couldn't change, so I changed it and it's OK now.

I found also this:

Code: Select all

# Deinterlace (integer) #deinterlace=0
It's 0 so it should be disabled, but it's enabled in menu option. :o

I found also:

Code: Select all

# Deinterlace video (boolean) #fake-deinterlace=0 # Deinterlace video (boolean) #sout-transcode-deinterlace=0
So which one should I change to change the context menu item from "on" to "auto"?

You have to remove # from options if you want to use them.

Thanks, but I still don't know how to change this option:

context menu > video > deinterlace > "automatic"

Which option should I change? I tried to use "-1" for several lines, I have deleted # char, while VLC was not running, of course, but the option above is still set to "on" instead of "auto".

Finally I found it. To change the following option:

context menu > video > deinterlace > from "on" to "automatic"

Change this:

Code: Select all

# Video filter module (string) video-filter=deinterlace
to this:

Code: Select all

# Video filter module (string) video-filter=
