There are known facts - but forget we could calculate correct interlaced frames
in real time (at least I think it's imposible with 400MHz CPU).
This would have to be made of line by some special software which
would convert 23.98 video to 25Hz rate - and I think there is currently
no such good software which would be able to do it properly
(At least I don't know about such - and VirtualDub is definitely not the
right thing for this)

I've read your post - but WITHOUT modified picture itself (e.g. some
method of blending images together) there is no better way.

Which is the best we can do without unmodified picture... :(

0 zero frame should be skiped...
Again the best we could do with unmodified picture...

Well the sound card speed is considered - don't worry :)

I've read that - but as I said - we would have to do some telecine
transformation in realtime - might be possible with 1.5GHz PIV - but I do
not have such horse power on my desk - so someone else has
to come with some fast & efficies algorithm for this - will be
easy to plug in avifile....
