Caracas 1981 DVD - 2015 edition

Yes.

Thanks for this.
What happened to the the video?
Deinterlaced two frames are like one frame, then two frames (one of them is distorted) from the same moment and the third frame.
I didn't notice it at the first look.

Wrong file.

Is your TV an LCD, and are you playing it on a stand alone DVD player? The playback is ok if I watch it on my PC by the way.

LCD (LED technically). And no, I didn't use a standalone DVD player but a computer with XBMC connected to the TV.

So, are you actually viewing the vob files you created via the PC?
Perhaps that's why they look ok.

Yes, I have no other way how to watch the DVD right now.

I think the problem is this - Pittrek likely cropped and resized (problem lies in resizing) them without deinterlace -> reinterlace process. Thus the judder. So either he should have done the process mentioned or avoid any cropping + resizing.  I re-created it by using this method (below). It's basically the same thing, only that the distorted look varies depending on the amount of resizing.

  (this one is untouched, only deinterlaced in VLC. This footage appears like the one I "recreated" because, as I mentioned, the amount of resizing affects the look)

I would suggest everybody (I do it myself) to do this - * Make 25i videos to 50 fps progressive (respectively, 29.97i -> roughly 60p) * Use H.264 compression and MKV container for the particular video * Play them on laptop connected to TV via HDMI cable You won't have to buy a blank DVD and you save a lot of disk space. And on your TV it will look exactly the same as your DVD player converts 25i to 50p anyway.

That's the sort of mess I'm talking of, thanks for the info.

Now thanks for the post CM, now I finally know what kind of problem do people have. It's really interesting that software players can handle this but some standalone players seem to have a problem with it.

I apologize to all of you who had any problems, I'll post an mkv version soon

Thanks pittrek.

Normally I'm all against de-interlaced pictures, but in this case, the original is so weird that you can't tell if it's interlaced or not, so a corrected de-interlaced version is fine by me.

Peter. Do you have Snow Productions DVD of this concert?
If so, May I recommend you take a look and see if you can match his colours.
To my eyes, his DVD would be perfect if it weren't for the fact it's all on a single layer disc and you can clearly see the artefacting.
It's so bad that actually, I wonder if his source was mpeg2 to start with...

Do you mean the version which is usually distributed as Snow version or is there a REAL SnowProd version ? I have the version which has static Freddie pic in front of a moving flag, has DTS sound but it's extremely dark and I'd say it's VCD-sourced

Is the latest snow effort any good?
