Load your TS files into DGIndex. Make sure the PIDs are set correctly. Save the D2V project and demux the audio.

Write an AVISynth script to perform IVTC, crop and resize to DVD resolution. Here is an example:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\DGDecode.dll")
MPEG2Source("blade.runner.1080i.dd5.1.oar.0006.d2v")
doubleweave()
pulldown(0,3)
crop(0,142,-0,-150)
spline36Resize(720, 354)
addborders(0,63,0,63)

(Obviously you will have to adjust the values for your particular source).

Now encode as normal.

You might find issues with your audio going out of sync. I think the only option if this is the case is to adjust the delay value in your authoring package manually.

DGIndex is part of the DGMPGDec package.

If you're going to be doing several conversions, you might want to look at theeo, which will automate some of the process for you.

In DGIndex, go to Streams->Set PIDs.
Most streams I have seen have Video PID=11 and Audio PID=14.

And you might want to try the latest beta of DGMPGDec, it has an option to output 1080 if the height is incorrectly set to 1088 (which removes the grey line you sometimes get at the bottom of the picture).
