When watching an avi video in vlc, i notice especially on black colours that there is noticable lines almost like a checker pattern covering the screen, is there a setting or anything i can do to fix this?

Deinterlace in video menu.

Should I have it set to on or automatic, adn which mode should it be on?

Here's what it looks like http://picasaweb.google.com/10436002095 ... 5013353890

I've got the same problem. These checkers appear when the player is on full screen and changing the Deinterlace didn't help at all. I don't have this problem when i play the same file with other media players. Can someone please help?
