FFDShow

[Sinny]

Didnt know what part of the forum to put this in but could someone create me a profile that will increase the quality of my DVD's?

Im currently on a 22" widescreen panel, i had a go at it myself and it looks better but when people move the characters bodies get split into very thin lines.

Any help much appreciated.

don't use FFDshow? i find that the Xvid and DivX codecs provide much better quality!

Looks like he's talking about DVD upscaling, not encoding stuff.

I've had very varying degrees of success with this myself, so would certainly be interested in suggestions.

PS - Windows forum (unless of course you're running it on something else).

I think what you're referring to is interlacing... You need deinterlacing on...

Or just use videolan which upscales and has the option to deinterlace

VLC uses the same codec as ffdshow.

VLC uses the same codec as ffdshow.

i uninstalled ffdshow and started a dvd up, used VLC for ages, video was stuttering kept having a 2 second slow mo thing every 2 seconds, same with WMP.

Might be because my DVD RW +/- is old, dont think it makes a difference but it is 4-5 years old.

Sounds like you haven't got DMA enabled?

I'd think the same. I had more luck with VLC than I did with FFDshow, though the latter has a lot more flexibility.

media player classic + Xvid/divX is a real winner for video viewing.
