If your video really does need deinterlacing, TomsMoComp with Search effort set to 3 and vertical filter enabled should do the trick Number of tapos should be set to 2.00, Luma Sharpen to 0.50-1.50 and Chroma Sharpen to 0.00. On Resize & Aspects Settings sub-page, set both Luma and Chroma methods to 'Lanczos', and make sure the Lock is enabled. In case there's too much noise in your video, try rising the Denoise3D settings, Chroma up to 2.00-3.00, Luma up to 1.00-2.00 and Time up to 5.00-6.00 It should be, however, used on really low quality videos if possible, on higher quality videos avoid this, it gets rid of too many details easily. SPP Deblocking is a really heavy setting to use, and broken on many builds too it seems. well, not so good Use Level Fix settings if needed, this can however cause over emphasizing of contrast. Set Processing method to 'Mplayer', and use 'Accurate Deblocking' if it works for you, this seems to change from build to build and video to video, for the ones it works, it's great, for the rest. Set the Presets to far right, with Automatic quality control enabled. Set it to Framerate doubler, and 'no motion estimation - blend images' Deinterlacing - Enabled (Note, this is heavy filter)

Number of tapos should be set to 2.00, Luma Sharpen to 1.00-1.50 and Chroma Sharpen to 0.00. Aspect Ratio should be changed when needed, if ever, but 'Keep original aspect ratio' is a good default For some reason, this gives you better IQ than just resizing it straight to your native resolution) (The point is to resize the video to be bigger than your viewing resolution, which the video card will then scale it down to. Resize on, Multiply by 3 if your computer can handle it, 2 if it can't, or even some specific resolution will do. In Denoise3D settings, put Chroma to 1.00, Time to 4.00 and Luma to 0.00. Disable everything from the settings, except for Denoise3D and HQ, they sould be enabled. Then for the settings themselves, for the presetsДЄll these should be placed on the FFDSHOW's list in the order they're written here (1 above 2, 2 above 3 and so on)ДЄnd please, remember that many have different displays and tastes, so you might need to adjust these to suit yours better, but these are quite good base from where to start.ДЇirst, for DVD's, assuming you have a DVD player which supports using FFDSHOW as a filter. On Decoder Options page, set IDCT to 'Auto', and Number of decoding threads to match how many cores you have (2 for dualcore, 4 for quad and so on) On Codecs -page, set every Format that allow it to 'libavcodec' unless there's 'Incomplete' or 'Broken' mentioned by it, except for MPEG2 (and possibly, the WMV-stuff), set Raw video to 'All supported' Some of the filters are especially heavy, I will put a note on each, however keep in mind that these settings were made at least fairly powerful computer in mind.ДЇirst, couple 'all-around' settings which are the same for all presets, and not part of the different filter settings used in the presets.

I will put out 2 presets here, which you can save to FFDSHOW's 'Image Settings' page. In addition it offers a powerful and wide selection of different filters you can use. It utilizes the libavcodecs created for the ffmpeg project, which are also utilized by the likes of VLC (and Mplayer I think?) It plays pretty much everything out there What FFDSHOW is? It's a codec, or codec 'pack'. I've done some small changes to it myself, too, but they're rather minor, and then there's some additional info added by myself, and of course, the translation. First of all, most credits for the guide go to Hot Metal and other users of MuroBBS, who were there creating this guide.
