Just to be clear, in the other thread, I got detelecine to work (with the wrong params?) but couldn't get fieldmatch+decimate to work. But this may have been due to my files being particularly exotic.
And there's also another inverse detelecine filter called "pullup". Also, how do you do: configure 'fieldmatch'+'decimate' can be configured to match the static functionality of 'detelecine'? I agree that should be in the documentation.
