DVD Playback is Interlaced

[timing]

Hey guys

Hmm okay I play a LOT of DVDs on my PC and all of em, even the ones with video format interlaced don't give me any problems.

This particular one I have though is giving a LOT of interlacing on my screen and it's irritating me ... I'm wondering whether it's actually possible to have the DVD itself being so poorly encoded that it "seems" like it's causing interlacing problems. I've tried it on my TV and (obviously) there isn't such a problem ...

I'm just wondering why this particular DVD gives me such a big problem when it's OK for all the other DVDs that I play ...

it may well be the dvd material

i once had a dvd which looked so poor, i couldnt believe my eyes.
i saw the movie on paytv before and it looked better!!

Agreed

I got a crappy Malaysian copy of AI on DVD and both the audio and video were poor. When I ripped and encoded, no matter what I did the interlaced artifacts made the film almost unwatchable, and the sound was gritty and distorted. I reckon your DVD is the problem.
