Hi Steven, Thanks for getting back to me.

But then perhaps the mjpegtools archives aren't > easily searchable Well, I tried searching for strings including things like: hdtv, dvd, scaling, y4mscaler, yuvscaler, mpeg2enc, 1080i ... in various combinations on google and from the sourceforge mailing list search. I got a few hits for encoding hdtv, but I didn't find anything for getting good dvd mpeg2 from it. > > Hmmm, I prefer to use ProjectX and mpeg2dec.

I think this speaks to the poor quality of my source... but I'd rather get something than nothing. Anyway, I've been playing back those cuts from avidemux2 with mplayer -> y4mscaler -> mpeg2enc. > If it's from TV it's interlaced :) I NEVER deinterlace during the > encoding process - that's a lossy process and you'll never get the > detail back. That's what I thought. I figured that if mpeg2 supports interlaced streams, I might as well be consistent and leave it in that "domain". However, this was the first time I'd dealt with data that looked interlaced by eye, but which was marked "progressive" by yuvscaler after being passed by mplayer. I'll experiment with your suggestions with my choppy streams and see how I do. Thanks again! Jean ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.
