I'm not sure if this is the best forum to ask this, but I figured somebody might know. Does anybody know if there are specific encoding settings to give videos that smooth, interlaced look? The reason I ask is I transfer things recorded from TV onto a DVD-RW and then rip them onto a hard drive. But after they've been ripped, they lose that smooth look that interlaced broadcast footage has. The only settings I can configure is frame rate, bit rate, and whether or not I want to deinterlace.
I'm convinced it's not related to frame rate, because I've tried exporting in both 25fps and 30fps. The only time I've seen it become apparent is a rip of Eurovision 2014 I downloaded that was playing in 50fps, and that was smooth as butter. But even when I ignore an option to "deinterlace", I can't get that smooth look. However, when I play the DVD-RW on OS X's DVD Player, it's incredibly smooth. It's the only DVD player program I've seen that makes it look like a live broadcast.
I don't suppose anybody has any advice to pass along regarding this? Anything would be appreciated
