I never noticed before, but on a high-motion scene played back on the TV the slow-motion effect was very prominent. And what I meant to say was, not using -I for interlaced inputs doesn't save (m)any bits versus using -I. In all my tests yuvmedianfilter (used correctly or not) saves a lot more bits than yuvdenoise. Direct comparison shows why - yuvmedianfilter really softens the picture a lot. Median filtering in general is great for noise distributions with long tails (non-gaussian, impulsive noise) since it can exclude large outliers rather than averaging them in like linear filtering, but the flip-side seems to be that edge detail gets obliterated. There are lots of different median-filtering schemes out there that are probably better than this simple one, but it's not really my area.
