Video Collector, what are you guys using for the Coby episode?

Personally I have restarted my project so many times from either finding new sources or just a new way to capture/encode/restore. It really is like peeling an onion. But I think that I am finally at the end game.

I have decided to just do a slightly cleaned up, interlaced, 30fps DVD set. More of a straight up preservation than anything. And then if people want to rip the episodes and IVTC, denoise and warp sharp the heck out of them then that is up to the particular person.

I have read time and time again on places like videohelp, doom9 and digitalfaq that if you have an originally interlaced source (VHS) and you plan on displaying it on an interlaced device (dvd + tv) then don't de-interlace. You aren't doing yourself any favors. Not to mention that it can make certain scenes stutter, as the frames are reduced. For instance a scene where it will pan from left to right or zoom in/out. It can be very noticeable with cheap animation as there wasn't many frames drawn to being with.

Obviously you would want to de-interlace if making an mp4/mkv/avi set, but for a DVD set it isn't needed. Now the PAL set where there is some pretty nasty frame blending I could see IVTC as necessary too. But with the NTSC sources it isn't as big of a problem.

In the end I am going to try and fit it all on two dual layer discs.
