RE: "soft telecine"

Rich, I appreciate the answer, and what I'm asking is if it skips fields when 
it is decoding, or if it keeps them in tact.
The other part of the question is would it be better to specify a lower 
framerate (could I tell it to ignore the flag, and just get the origonal 
untelecined frames) 
 
As far as the CRAP... I don't add it to my e-mail, It is added at my gateway. 
If it is too annoying, I'll have to switch e-mail acccounts.

libavcodec "honors" the flags in that decoded frames will have the
flag attached to them and whatever program uses lavc can do what it
likes with these flags. It will not interleave them into nasty
interlaced field-pairs for you, if that's what you want...

Please do not send crap like this to public mailing lists... It lacks
linebreaks even.
