Avisynth: 12.5 fps DV to mpeg?

My sister has a rather low-end Canon miniDV camcorder that produces ASF at 12.5 fps.

Are there any script that would take this ASF into reasonable quality PAL VCD format?

Thanks. :lol:

It is interlaced ? If yes a simple bob shoudl double the framerate, hence produce a 25 fps material. Isn't it ?

Thanks. But wouldn't BOB reduce the resolution to half? There are a few favors of bob, the standard one and those that called smart bob, can you recommend some to start with? :lol:

Actually you are right :(. Unfortunally I don't know a lot about bobing and deinterlacing in a general way so I should let Boulder or others help you.

An idea may be to use TDeint with mode 1 then mode -1.

Quote:

mode:

Sets the mode of operation. Modes -2 and -1 require progressive input.

-2 - double height using modified ELA
-1 - double height using modified ELA-2
0 - same rate output
1 - double rate output (bobbing)
2 - same rate output (blend frames from bobbed stream)

default - 0 (int)

You should try a motion compensated framerate changer, like MVFlowFPS2 which is in the MVTools package (avisynth.org.ru->Fizick's plugins).

A short example (copied almost directly from the MVTools readme):

Code:

source = Avisource("c:\test.avi")

backward_vec = source.MVAnalyse(isb = true, truemotion=true, pel=2, idx=1)

# we use explicit idx for more fast processing

forward_vec = source.MVAnalyse(isb = false, truemotion=true, pel=2, idx=1)

cropped = source.crop(4,4,-4,-4) # by half of block size 8

backward_vec2 = cropped.MVAnalyse(isb = true, truemotion=true, pel=2, idx=2)

forward_vec2 = cropped.MVAnalyse(isb = false, truemotion=true, pel=2, idx=2)

return source.MVFlowFps2(backward_vec,forward_vec,backward_vec2,forward_vec2,num=25,idx=1,idx2=2)

If the camcorder produces interlaced stuff, the script needs some more tweaking.
