OK, now I'm confused. I used video>frame rate>reconstruct from field - manual and saved the avi (direct stream copy). I tested this on a clip with 319 frames. So I thought the clip now would have less then 319 frames. But it still has 319 frames. So I repeated the process now also changing the framerate to 23.976. Now I get a clip of again 319 frames, but virtualdub says it has a 23.976 framerate. OK I understand the ammount of pictures can be the same and the framerate can change but I thought IVTC actually removed frames. Can someone please try and explain this whole pulldown system to me because I don't get it anymore.

OK i get the basic idea but when I wanted to try IVTC in virtualdub I didn't get any further than: video>frame rate>reconstruct from field - manual. What's the next step? How do I see if the setting is good?

Is the automatic 2-pass ivtc of cinema craft encoder (v2.7) any good? Or isn't it 100% foolproof?

When I first heared the word "pulldown" I assumed it was the process of turning 30 frames into 24 frames. I was dead wrong

But when playing a 24 frame/sec movie on a dvd player, does the player turn it into 30? Does a 30 frame/sec play more smooth than 24?

Can anyone tell what is the best program to crop and resize? I tried cropping and resizing using virtualdub. Cropping goes fine but when I resize to 720 x 480 with lanczos filter the image quality goes down.

I don't think it has somthing to do with pulldown. As far as I understand anything of 3:2, 2:3, inverse 3:2 etc. I'm a PAL guy. No, I have to say after upping the contrast and downing the brightness there's almost no trembling left. I'm not going to use pulldown, I'll keep it at 29.970 frames per second. Only problem left is resizing. Quality is going down after resizing. So I'm thinking about keeping it at fullscreen unless I find a lossless way to resize. I tried resizing in virtualdub (I'm doing everything in virtualdub).

Does anyone know what program, filters and settings farsight used to deinterlace? I want to try it on my own transfer. I can't find a good way/filter to deinterlace, and he seems to have done a good job at that.

What program and filters (and settings) did you use to deinterlace? What program did you use for encoding the video?

It was captured using a canopus advc55 and sony vegas 5. The colors are to bright. But making it darker doesn't really change the tremble. I don't know how to turn it into safe ntsc colors.

Zion, how is your work proceeding? Will you make your work available to all Star Wars fans?

Hi. Yes I can make a short segment. I just have to figure out how to make it available... I encode my avis using cce. Normally, bottom field first. If this is no good, I mark top field first. The field order in this case is bottom field first. Sometimes in a very bright part in a movie the image seems to tremble, in my avis it's like that thru the entire avi. I also used virtualdub for resizing. I cropped using nultransform (104 from top, 100 from bottom, just leaving the image, cutting of entire black bars). Then I resize to 720 x 360. I expand it to letterbox to 720 x 480. For the filter mode I used the lanczos filter, you can also select "interlacing (not recommended for enlarging)" well seems to me I must not mark it. But the problem is when I burn a piece of encoded avi on dvd to check it on my tv it seems the lines of the interlacing artifacts in the picture are twice as big and very well visible. Normally when I encode interlaced PAL material the image is very smooth on tv, in this case it's the oposite.

Hi. I want to make a ld to dvd transfer. I captured the movies on my pc. But the trouble is the image trembles/shake ( i don't excactly know how to put it in english). When I deinterlace the image is good, but ofcourse I don't want to deinterlace since this reduces the quality. My second problem is, when I resize (to 16:9 anamorphic) interlacing artifacts become visible on the tv screen. I normally work with PAL source so I'm new to NTSC material. Does anyone know how I can solve this problems? Thanks!

Hi. I'm trying to make my own ld transfer (but I'm having a little trouble getting the video right) But I was wondering, what program are you going to use for encoding the video?
