Current situation:
Deinterlacing is off by default for all videos. It is also possible to force it which breaks every non-interlaced video.
Proposed changes:
Deinterlacing is off by default for all videos. It is also possible to force it which breaks every non-interlaced video.
Proposed changes:
- After selecting the "On" option a pop-up would appear when closing the video settings dialog asking the user if he really wants to force it.
- The default would change to "Auto" if Live TV is enabled. Virtually all non-HD live TV is interlaced so keeping de-interlacing off seriously degrades the out-of-the-box user experience. Possibly an exception could be made for certain platforms when it is certain that it can't handle de-interlacing properly.
