[HELP] 25i to 29.97i with interpolation

[Miranda]

Hybrid is currently running, I will let you know later.

Sending you a sample clip via PM.

[Selur]

busy today (helping out a friend) will look at it tomorrow after work

Okay, do that again, but before it set 'Filtering->Misc->Script->Filter interlace handling' to 'QTGMC(prest="Fast)'.

[Miranda]

In Filtering -> Misc -> Script, I do not see this option.

I see the following:

Frame Count to:
Frame Rate to:
Width to:
Height to:
Output Lumance:

OK, now I see it, in another tab

Reading Miranda's requests for Selur are very strange, since the whole point of Hybrid and it's filters is to enhance old interlaced videos and make them compatible with the progressive displays. Miranda on the other hand wants to take progressive videos and interlace them? In that case I would recommend enhancing & up-scaling your videos to your desired resolution of 1080p, then stream that video to a hardware or software encoder set to 1080i. I've done that in the past to make it compatible with certain old hardware, but stopped doing it when I realized that Youtube is offering same services for free. Kind of like my old aunt wanted me to convert new digital songs to her old cassettes so she could listen to them. It was easier for me to get her a digital player then to waste time with analog tape decks

[Miranda]

The video is a 1990s interlaced tv show. We want to keep the interlaced shot on video TV feel as much as possible, without making it look too "filmic".
An example:

https://conversation.which.co.uk/technol...framerate/

[belyshev]

Well my method should help you achieve that. And just FYI, you will never achieve old look and feel to the video unless you add 50Hz PAL or 60Hz NTSC flicker to the video which ruins your vision.

[Selur]

@Miranda: I'm waiting on a script where you have 'Filtering->Misc->Script->Filter interlace handling' to 'QTGMC(prest="Fast)' enabled.
