Help with Futurama Telecine - protectron - 07.07.2025
What would be the best way to inverse telecine Futurama (or The Simpsons) where some of the content is progressive and some of the content is telecined without a structured pattern?
I have tried traditional methods of TIVTC with and without TDecimate and end up with ghosting and chroma trails.
For example, in the first episode:
00:28 progressive scan sequence of chef shaking his arms
00:40 telecine every other frame of Fry talking
00:48 progressive scan sequence of Fry on his bike
1:03 telecine every other frame of Fry exiting elevator
2:00 progressive scan sequence of time lapse
3:07 progressive scan of intro sequence
7:15 progressive scan sequence of Fry walking around future
7:23 telecine every other frame of Fry entering tube
12:43 telecine every other frame of Fry talking
It never seems to be a 3:2 or similar pattern. Sometimes there will be one or two random telecine frames out of nowhere.

try QTGMC with Bob enabled and then sRestore to 23.976
RE: Help with Futurama Telecine - protectron - 07.07.2025
Trying it now, the progress bar seems to get stuck for minutes at a time and then progresses again another 1% or so before getting stuck again
It's been at 13.58% for 20 minutes now and VSPipe.exe is at 6% CPU utilization so I gave that up

Would need a sample of your source to suggest something else.

Tried it again this morning and it did the same thing

RE: Help with Futurama Telecine - Selur - 07.07.2025
Have you tried adjusting the TIVTC settings?
With the sample you provided:
clip2clip = clip
clip2clip = qtgmc.QTGMC(Input=clip2clip, Preset="fast", opencl=True, TFF=False, FPSDivisor=2)
# Deinterlacing using TIVTC
clip = core.tivtc.TFM(clip=clip, mmsco=False, blockx=8, blocky=8, MI=16, clip2=clip2clip)
clip = core.tivtc.TDecimate(clip=clip, mode=7, rate=23.9760, dupThresh=0.04, vidThresh=3.50, sceneThresh=15.00)# new fps: 23.9766Cu Selur

Quote:an encoding speed of roughly 33fps doesn't seem so low.
QTGCM +sRestore is stable in the 40-50fps range until it hits 13%, then it stops. It still gets stuck changing the QTGMC preset to Fast.
I've tried TIVTC in mode 2 & 4 and TDecimate in mode 1 and 7 and Hybrid mode 0 and 1.
The video at least completes with TIVTC, but I get ghosting artifacts.

Try adjusting the settings like I did,...
RE: Help with Futurama Telecine - protectron - 07.07.2025
Still turns out the same and produces the sample image above
