Automatic Video Deinterlacing
Added 2024-06-08 16:33:58 +0000 UTCAlready available in the latest version
---------------------
In the next update, waifu2x will gain the ability to automatically detect interlaced videos and deinterlace them before initiating the upscale / frame interpolation process.
This enhancement will resolve compatibility issues with interlaced videos, such as those found in old DVD recordings.
Here is an example:

This new feature will be available in the next update, thank you for continuing to support this project! 💕💕💕

QTGMC on the Slower, Very Slow, and Placebo presets completely blows away other options for deinterlacing if AviSynth is on the table (and it sounds like it is if I am understanding your replies in this thread). I look forward to seeing that come to fruition.

2024-06-10 22:14:24 +0000 UTCIt only can fix compatibility issues with properly encoded interlaced videos. It can not fix "hard encoded" interlaced videos (For example, a video that has been directly encoded from interlaced to progressive scan without applying a deinterlacing filter.)
