Dutch? lol.
Nice tut !
Hi Jorrit,
In the CS3 workflow, what exactly is the difference in result compared to just setting the right field settings in your Interpret Footage window and rendering to a progressive format?
Thanks!
Very nice! It is going to my presets folder
But link seems to be broken :/
What’s the difference with the Fields and Pulldown, and setting your seperate fields to Lower or Upper Fields?
Where’s the preview?
Nice! and oh by the way, are you dutch? I’m as well, if you are, i could hear it on your accent, if youre not im wrong
haha, Yes I’m Dutch..
and for the broken Preset, if more people are having this problem, I’ll try to fix it…
oh, i see the LINK is broken, duh…
i think something went wrong while uploading it, i’ll sent an e-mail to the editor
http://aetuts.s3.amazonaws.com/149_interlace/AEtuts_Project_Files_Deinterlacerator.zip – download link for deinterlacerator v2.0 is no working
yea it is broken
Problem Should be Fixed…. sorry!
Hi Jorrit,
i have the same problem, it asks for a user and PW, but this not part of the tutsplus, right?
NL too
hi Jorrit,
thanks, now it worked!
no user or PW asked.
cheers,
marcel
I think it’s great that you made a custom deinterlacer!
But whats wrong if you use Interpret footage. Works great and is so much easier to use? Or am i missing something?
indeed, also my question. Interpret footage is much faster and only one click. Don’t really see the use of this one.
A really cool, a dutch person
Finally 
im dutch too
Keep it up , nice tuts!
greetings
Sjoerd
Much simpler to use quicktime pro and check the deinterlace tickbox. . . . .
…..useless
why i whant to complicate such a simple thing??????????????
Click on file, Ctrl-F / Separate Fields/ Upper for HD Interlaced footage and Lower for DV footage.
If you whant some nice blending make 2 compositions, one upper and one lower and composit Upper over Lower with 50% opacity.
Does this guy know After Effects?? This is useless man.
@ Eric
Yes, “this guy” knows After Effects. Everyone who says that interpreting footage to “lower/upper field first” solves the problem doesn’t seem to understand the case.
The solution proposed by Jorrit gives you possibility to kind of recreate lost resolution.
Some of you just don’t care about it, but believe me – most professional artists do.
Oops… It seems that this is me who doesn’t understand the case. I just analyzed how After Effects deals with the footage interpreted to be “upper/lower field first”.
I was 100% sure that it simply duplicates the lines, but in fact the program interpolates the missing lines from existing ones.
I’d like to apologize everyone for my previous comment. I was so sure that After Effects takes the “easy way” that I didn’t even try to see how it really is.
Hello, Deinterlacerator 2.0 won’t import into After Effects on my computer. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!
