Two filters at once...

I think I am either doing something wrong or this cannot be done.
I want to use the crop filter (to get rid of the grey bar on 1080i files) and the de-interlace filter (I prefer discard). Both at the same time.
But it seems that when I activate the crop filter I cannot use the de-interlace function from the drop down menus. and If I set the de-interlace filter in the preferences, I loose the crop filter.
I was wondering if there was a way to run both of these filters at the same time???
BTW I am running on OS X and am using both 0.7.3 and the new 0.8.0 and both act the same.
Thanks

I take it that since no one has answered this, there is no way to run the crop and de-interlace filter at the same time???

there is, you must write both filter names comma-separated in the filter option in preferences.

You can't.
It's a dropdown list.
You will manually need to edit the vlcrc file.
But shouldnt it be possible from the commandline ?

I tried several combinations like:
Code: Select all
vlc --filter crop --crop-geometry=768x432:deinterlace --deinterlace-mode=bob
vlc --filter crop --crop-geometry=768x432, --filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode=bob
vlc --filter crop --crop-geometry=768x432, --filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode bob
vlc --filter crop:deinterlace --crop-geometry=768x432 --deinterlace-mode=bob
and other variations.
Either there is an error message about not finding a module called bob or the second argument is ignored completely.
The man page says to separate filters with a "," but in the list archives somone tells in Version 0.81 ( which is the one I am using ) the ":" is used to separate the filters.
Thanks for an enlightment.

for 0.8.1
vlc --filter=crop:deinterlace --crop-geometry=768x432 --deinterlace-mode=bob
for later version
vlc --filter=crop,deinterlace --crop-geometry=768x432 --deinterlace-mode=bob
For OSX
you need to start vlc like:
/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC
Thanks !

sorry guys but Im a real newbie and have the same problem with 1080i on my PC - ie I want to use deinterlace and crop at the same time
Could you explain exactly what I need to do?
Where do I need to put the command line
vlc --filter=crop:deinterlace --crop-geometry=768x432 --deinterlace-mode=bob
I am currently just using crop module: 1920x1080+0+9 but you have to select crop or deinterlace
Many thanks

Hi!
I'm trying to use two filters too, but I can't... Is it the right way?
--fullscreen --filter="adjust" --brightness="1.25" --contrast="1.5" video.mpg
Thanks in advance
