I'm a bit lost, need some advice so I can capture this evening.

I've only ever captured and edited NTSC interlaced material before now even though I live in Europe. nature of what was captured. I am now going to be capturing PAL from a LD and VCR so the captured material will be 25fps interlaced.

I know I don't need to IVTC or anything to get it back to 24fps because PAL is just sped up 4% do I just do a standard interlace to make it a progressive source?

can I do this by just doing sangnom? or do I de-interlace then use sangnom like before and blend the material with an overlay ?

or what?

bit lost, doom 9 is confusing me more than helping to be honest.

would be I be able to just deinterlace using sangnom because that will interpolate and AA for me in one go.

quick answer would be nice because I'd like to capture tonight if I could.

When a woman says yes, she means no - when she says maybe, she means no.

"going to be capturing PAL from a LD and VCR so the captured material will be 25fps interlaced."

Hold on a second. What equipment, exactly, are you using? Is your LD player PAL? Is your VCR PAL?

If they aren't both PAL, I think you are going to have some problems. Furthermore, IF you could record a PAL signal on an NTSC VCR, it's going to record the signal as NSTC, which is 30fps interlaced. It's basically going to look like crap. If you want to record the LD signal, your best best is to capture it on the computer at its native rate, and make any necessary adjustments digitally.

MeBeJedi: Sadly, I believe the prequels are beyond repair.
JediRandy: They’re certainly beyond any repair you’re capable of making.

MeBeJedi: You aren’t one of us.
Go-Mer-Tonic: I can’t say I find that very disappointing.

JediRandy: I won’t suck as much as a fan edit.
