[gst-devel] framerate and deinterlace2

[Julien Isorce]

Hi,

Thx for those informations.


A video source running at 1080i @ 30 frames per second (that is, 60
> fields per second) uses exactly half the bandwidth as 1080p @ 60
> frames per second.


> To the end viewer, they appear equally fluid, because they both
> *appear* to be running at 60 frames per second. The non-interlaced
> format will provide twice the vertical detail but will use twice the
> bandwidth.

> 1920x1080 pixels, where the even-numbered horizontal lines form one
> field and the odd-numbered horizontal lines form another. The same
