No, it won't. tvtime will only do pulldown detection unless the frame has VO_INTERLACED_FLAG set, which it only has if the container or stream indicates it's interlaced. From what I can see in the source, there is no way to override this. > setting to turn it on.

Again, no. kaa.metadata isn't as smart -- it doesn't look at the stream, only the container. mminfo dvd:// on a DVD that has interlaced content and you'll see what I mean. We could put the effort into making kaa.metadata more intelligent, but the reality is that it will never be as comprehensive as a full player. We have the opportunity to leverage the intelligence by the player's demuxer here and we should do that. > Before you code something like this (which would be very hard to do > btw), please finish kaa.candy :) The general approach would be easy, and I can already think of a fair heuristic to detect combing artifacts. The question really is how effective would this be in practice. But yes anyway, I have more important fish to fry in the short term.
