video jerkiness after detelecining

Post by rmarier83 »

I have a DVD [Futurama/NTSC] that has the 29.97 fps telecine (ran it through nero recode) and when I detelecined it here the video doesn't seem as smooth as when I leave that option unchecked.
I've tried lots of things like different FPS and plain old deinterlacing without the detelcining. I've even combined the two.

Other than this problem, this piece of software could become better than Nero's Recode (they don't have any detelecing options). I've gotten some really nice output files from this, most better than recode.

(As for my last post [the syncing issues] I solved that already-sorry about that)

Futurama isn't hard telecined, it's mixed content, leaning towards mostly progressive.

It is not something you should be using the detelecine in 0.9.1 on.

Thanks for the reply, I do have 1 final question and that is:
"Is there a way to know if such videos like this are soft/hard telecined?"

Not really. You have to look at them. An example of what hard telecining looks like is available on this, still-being-written page of documentation for a not-yet-publicly-available feature:
