Mythtv recordings, xbmc, and deinterlacing - romanodog - 2010-08-20

I'm running XBMC live on a thumbdrive right now and I have a mythtv backend on a separate machine.
I can connect to my backend and play videos just fine using both mythbox and the myth:// protocol.
The only problem is the recordings are interlaced and none of the interlacing methods I choose in xbmc seem to be doing anything. I have no problems with interlacing on a mythtv frontend.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

romanodog,

i've got a nightly xbmc running and i've noticed extreme jagginess when watching recorded programs found on the myth:// protocol accessed videos.

so i would guess this has to do with the interlacing (i didn't realize mythtv did that).

i too would be very interested in an answer to this. for now, i switch back and forth between mythtv/xbmc to avoid this.

Our interlaced 1080i recordings playback fine with the de-interlacers?

Anything in the XBMC log? What sort of video stream content is it, MPEG, H264. Using VDPAU, what interlacers have you tried, what upscaling are you usingHuh
