HELP: How 2 get rid of lines in video

[hacker_on_fire]

Whenever i create an avi video from a vob file i always get horizontal lines appearing througout the video.

How do you get rid of these?

i use m$mpeg v2
dvd2avi
avisynth
nandub (2 pass encoding)

Thanx

Those horizontal "combing" lines are indicative of the need to apply a deinterlacing filter at some point during your conversion process...

how do you do this?

[Enchanter]

Apply a Deinterlacer filter from within the Filters section of nandub. I recommend Smart Deinterlace, as you have control over many more parameters, than the plain vanilla deinterlacer. This method works well for beginners.

i looked 4 this filter but could not find it. I only found deinterlace which gives furture options. how do you get it?

i would also like 2 know what settings you use for 2 pass using nandub and msmpeg v2 as mine are not small. They are same as 2 pass with divx 4.12

Thanx a lot

I wouldn't care about the size. I would be more concerned about the quality. How is it?

i ahve not used the smart deinterlacing filter as i heard the bob deinterlacing filter works better as it does not smooth unlike the smart deinterlacing filter.

What do you think?

Why don't you simply experiment with each of the filters (and the other deinterlace filters floating around the 'net) and make your own determination as to which suits your needs best?

You may find that different deinterlace filters satisfy the requirements of different videos...

You never know if you never try.
