Hello,
I need to start VLC player with different deinterlacing modes for different movies.
Setting deinterlacing mode permanently via preferences http://wiki.videolan.org/WindowsFAQ-1.0 ... _method.3F does not help, because I need to change deinterlacing according to currently played movie. I think the best way to do this is by commandline, as the VLC playlist does not seem to support different playing modes for each title.
Setting the deinterlacing mode to "yadif2x" with the following cmdline does not work:

Code: Select all

C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe -vvv D:\Lebenswelten\StillLife.vob --deinterlace-mode=yadif2x --fullscreen --no-video-title-show

Deinterlacing under ContextMenu==>Video==>Deinterlace is set to Disabled. According to global preferences this behaviour is right.
But the above commandline switch should overlock global preferences. At least it is useless, if it does not.
Is this a bug, or is there another way to achieve a Deinterlace on demand function?

Regards MaeSiuS

P.S. As you see in the cmdline switch I'm a Windows user, but i think this is not a Windows specific problem.

See this topic. I can use some of the deinterlace modes but most don't work(?) though a command line. Its weird why should VLC drop some options, makes no sense. Sure we are missing something.

Code: Select all

set file=file:///C:/test/video1.ts
@REM blend, linear, yadif, x
set opts=--vout-filter=deinterlace --deinterlace-mode=yadif
"c:\program files\Videolan\vlc\vlc.exe"  %opts%  %file%

Hi whome, thanks for your answer.
With your cmdline switch I am able to use every available deinterlace mode in VLC Player 1.0.5 Goldeneye.
