  BOTT_FORWARD -T INTERLACED_BOTTOM_FIRST commands,  repeatedly, into a video-processing pipeline.  If this bug existed, I figured this would make the chroma noticeably out of sync with the intensity.  It looked perfect to me.  So at least we can say this bug has been fixed.  :-) Steven Boswell

As a last step before the encoder perhaps 'y4mdenoise -t 1' would be a good choice. Actually, y4mdenoise -z 1 -t 1...the default value of -z is 2, and y4mdenoise -z 2 -t 1 will probably generate nasty results. Steven Boswell ulatekh at yahoo dot com
