@ hofverberg - So far, there is a total of 5 audio tracks (will be six once I have your Swedish dub rips) and they are English in LPCM (as to not degrade the lossy audio even more by converting back to lossy ) English AC3 (for those that don't care about the audio being re-encoded), Polish AC3, German AC3, Russian AC3. From what I can tell, all English & German episodes are in stereo. Some of the Polish and Russian ones are in stereo and some are mono. All intros/end credits are in stereo.

@ Moth3r - thanx4suggestions about how to encode this and the episodes are all ~22:30. So I guess hofverberg is correct in saying that I should put, roughly, 5 episodes on each DVD.

@ ALL - I have hit, yet another, brick wall when it comes to some episodes from that "problem" batch of episodes. So the SRestore script works wonders on some of those and on some it actually makes them look WORSE. I have tried every single de-interlacer available in avidemux (version 2.5.4 and newest 2.6.8rev2) and every setting possible in the SRestore clip and NOTHING seems to work. If I use the DGbob filter (with each field being a frame, SAME fps, so the slow motion setting) I can see how the script could have problems with some of these. With the TDeint script I get the most usable video that I would have to replace a LOT of frames with from the DGbob filtered encode (but it would be replacing about a third of the frames PER episode)
Was wondering if any of you with more experience could help me figure this one out, so I made a 15 second sample (by remuxing and spliting it using tsmuxer) from the source file of an example of some of the troubled spots and posted it here (contains video ONLY): link removed, PM me if interested in giving this a crack
If ANYONE could help me figure this out, it would be appreciated and help this project move forward. For now, I'm working on the episodes that have no "issues" and will return to the "problem" ones once I know how to go about it. If there is NO easy solution, then I WILL fix those episodes frame-by-frame.

Peace,

Jerry
