On the other hand, the SD version is one of the most beautiful captures I've ever seen. I had to demux though, as I couldn't figure out how to play the second stream otherwise. For some reason it plays back with interlacing artifacts though, is it still interlaced?
I had a similar problem with initial playback. Though when I extracted the 2nd stream, even though it read as 29.97fps, it still appeared to be IVTC'd when I opened it in VirtualDub.
