Convert DVD Interlaced to DVD non interlaced ??????

[Josh]

Hello,
i have a film from the internet that was a DVD-5 now how to i convert it from an interlaced dvd to a non interlaced i cant seem to find a way of doing this is it at all possible.

If you're going to be playing it on standalone dvd player and TV, then it needs to stay interlaced.

can't think of any reason why a non-interlaced DVD would be wanted.

i didnt ask that tho i forgot to put that in my post, dont ask why or the reasons i would like to know how the process is done. My main reason is that a playstation 2 does not seem to play interaced discs very well the dvd is fine on normal players but on a ps2 it sucks and just freezes on first frame

There is no way to convert from interlaced to de-interlaced without re-encoding. If you want to keep the dvd format, I suggest using dvd decrypter to copy to your hard drive, then re-encode using dvdshrink if you are a total noob, or dvd2dvd with the CCE SP 2.50 encoder if you have ripped dvds before.

Dude! I'm not calling you a noob, but I am calling DVDShrink a noob app. If you can use a better method for transcoding, I'm all for it. If you hadn't had the pleasure before, DVDShrink would still work and its about as easy as it gets. A wee bit sensitive are we?

[Josh]

sensitive am i yes :) well i have dvd shrink so that will do i suppose do i just load it and re-author it

Sorry to say this but, after checking a few sites on this, I learned that DVDShrink will not automatically deinterlace. Therefore, you will need to use an app that gives you this option. I recommend dvd2dvd using the CCE SP 2.50 encoder. Dvd2dvd is a free app, CCE is not, but it is widely available, and I can help you out with this via PM. For a completely free solution, you can also try dvdrebuilder and Qenc. Both of these solutions will give you deinterlace options and many other options to enhance your dvd rip.
