Does VLC work with GPU deinterlacing?

[Shakama]

ive noticied VLC doesnt allow nvidia to deinterlace the video, only when i turn it on in the options does it work. How to get vlc to use hardware deinterlacing?

I don't thing that option works with VLC, since I would guess it is related to EVR/DirectShow chain that VLC doesn't use in.

but doesnt VLC already use GPU hardware decoding? why not deinterlacing as well? But I ask because I also cant get other popular EVR players to use GPU deinterlacing and they also dont give an option to such even though i know its possible, and nvidia has a setting for it.

Yes, VLC uses DXVA decoding when the option is enabled, card supports it and video formats matches the predefined list. But VLC just decodes the video with DXVA in that case, the playback chain is still VLC stuff. (I don't exactly know at which stage the deinterlace is applied in DXVA, so it might be possible to implement that)
