I recently, quote-unquote, “torrented” a PAL DVD rip of the 1998 filmed production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats, that includes the PolyGram Visual Programming (another television counterpart) logo at the beginning. While it does serve a lot more detail in a 576i broadcast master than a film master, it still needs a lot of de-interlacing work to make it look more polished. Perhaps the “Dione” model in Topaz Video Enhance AI could make a nice new method to process that once I upgrade my operating system in a few months.

An example of how the “Dione” model can process interlaced footage is through this video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0Nnbn1H0Ok
