I mean, if tvtime is running and you watch an avi, it will deinterlace it. Simply because it does not know better. So 'auto' is the wrong setting to turn it on. IMHO it should stay is it was before. kaa.metadata uses the same information as tvtime to detect if it is interlaced or not. So when we don't use the plugin it would be idle anyway. > This is something that needs to be addressed in xine itself. It's been > on my mental todo list for a while.

There are flags in container for that. E.g. there is an interlaced flag in the avi container. I don't know about other. Before you code something like this (which would be very hard to do btw), please finish kaa.candy :) Dischi -- Hidden DOS secret: add BUGS=OFF to your CONFIG.SYS
