I'm looking to capture all interlaced fields of some VHS and 8mm tapes and then use something like handbrake to interpolate additional fields to generate a 60p video which has that smooth "soap opera" or home video look to things. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? The 60p deinterlace bob seems to do an ok job. Is this my best bet or is there something else I should be using instead of Handbrake and Virtualdub? The deinterlace bob setting is pretty CPU intensive but I'm ok with that if this is as good as it gets...

I don't think by sampling the video at a higher rate of 60 interlaced, compared to the native 30 interlaced (technically 29.97) will gain you anything. Capturing at the native interlaced rate of the video is recommended on this forum.

As far as deinterlacing goes, QTGMC is the gold standard, and produces a 60p output from a 30i input. You can change the video back to 30p afterward. There's examples on this forum for that. However, it seems you want 60p, so you wouldn't need to add that step after QTGMC. QTGMC can be very configurable, or you can just use one of the various preset levels. It's time intensive, but is the best at what it does. A fair amount of avisynth plugins are required to get QTGMC working. Lots of forum posts are out there involving setup and usage settings. But the page on avisynth website is a great place to start. http://avisynth.nl/index.php/QTGMC Use Virtualdub in conjunction with Avisynth. You load a .avs file in Virtualdub. The .avs file contains the avisynth code to open and process your file, including making QTGMC call.

I use QTGMC in Hybrid.
No shenanigans, run the installer, done.
