You may have forgotten that while the vertical resolution is kept, horizontal resolution is reduced significantly for VHS, likely confusing the algorithm for detection of interlaced content.
Exactly, VHS only has bandwidth of ~3MHz, so a horizontal resolution of ~240 TV lines (not pixels). There can also be a -lot- of variable horizontal smearing (plus other artifacts).
AFAIK all VHS players produce an interlaced signal, composite and optionally S-video; the concept of "progressive scan" does not apply to an analog video signal.
There are many pages about capturing analog recordings- going from one lossy format (analog VHS) to another (DVD/mpeg) will not generally yield good results.
