My telecined dvd is in a folder called MIRAGE.

I know this is over a year old, but I had the exact same problem as OP and just spent hours figuring it out, and now that I have I'm so proud I registered an account to share.

I've compared it to one fansub rip, the same frame looks better than in the image above, very little blocking, also the bass string isn't blurred like in the image above: The real original frame should have no blocking. I think it's mplayer not doing it good enough. Also, it did not drop the extra frame anyway.īut I think even this is not 'original' - not as good as the original video before it was telecined into NTSC format. The occasional interlacing is the same as the video encoded with h264enc. I don't have any other filters in the command line, so. Depending on the source MPEG, you may be fine ignoring this advice, as long as you do not see lots of 'Bottom-first field' warnings. If the source is MPEG-2, this must be the first filter to allow access to the field-flags set by the MPEG-2 decoder.
