[HELP] Please help me deinterlace my stupid NTSC DVD cartoons

Due to the amount of artifacts you probably can't get rid of everything but going for a frame rate of 12 (may be 16) seems to be a good way.
Did a small reencode which I will send you a link to in a few minutes via PM.
I used:

# Imports import os import sys import ctypes # Loading Support Files Dllref = ctypes.windll.LoadLibrary("I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/Support/libfftw3f-3.dll") import vapoursynth as vs core = vs.get_core() # Import scripts folder scriptPath = 'I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsscripts' sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(scriptPath)) # Loading Plugins core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/Support/libsangnom.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/Support/fmtconv.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/SharpenFilter/AWarpSharp2/libawarpsharp2.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/DenoiseFilter/DFTTest/DFTTest.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/Support/libmvtools.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/DeblockFilter/Deblock/Deblock.dll") core.std.LoadPlugin(path="I:/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/SourceFilter/LSmashSource/vslsmashsource.dll") # Import scripts import muvsfunc import nnedi3_resample import mvsfunc import havsfunc # Loading C:\Users\Selur\Desktop\720x480_coyote-side2.mkv using LWLibavSource clip = core.lsmas.LWLibavSource(source="C:/Users/Selur/Desktop/720X48~1.MKV", format="YUV420P8", cache=0) # making sure input color matrix is set as unspec clip = core.resize.Point(clip, matrix_in_s="unspec",range_s="limited") # making sure frame rate is set to 30000/1001 clip = core.std.AssumeFPS(clip, fpsnum=30000, fpsden=1001) # Setting color range to TV (limited) range. clip = core.std.SetFrameProp(clip=clip, prop="_ColorRange", intval=1) # adjusting frame count and rate with sRestore clip = havsfunc.srestore(source=clip, frate=12.000, omode=6, speed=2, thresh=16) # Deblocking using Deblock clip = core.deblock.Deblock(clip=clip) # cropping the video to 680x432 clip = core.std.CropRel(clip=clip, left=40, right=0, top=0, bottom=48) # rainbow removal using LUTDeRainbow clip = havsfunc.LUTDeRainbow(input=clip) # removing grain using SMDegrain clip = havsfunc.SMDegrain(input=clip, interlaced=False, prefilter=2) # denoising using DFTTest clip = core.dfttest.DFTTest(clip=clip) # line darkening using Toon clip = havsfunc.Toon(input=clip) # adjusted resizing to achieve PAR 1:1 for preview (1) clip = core.fmtc.resample(clip=clip, kernel="spline16", w=720, h=480, interlaced=False, interlacedd=False) # Anti Aliasing using MAA clip = muvsfunc.maa(clip) # adjusting output color from: YUV420P16 to YUV420P10 for x265Model (i420) clip = core.resize.Bicubic(clip=clip, format=vs.YUV420P10, range_s="limited") # Output clip.set_output()

(didn't do much tuning)
