Video quality with deinterlacing isn't acceptable, if you look at the edges of 
some of the moving objects you will notice some combing for example.  As 
someone else mentioned, we need to preserve all of the information in the 
original video, which means delaying the bottom field by one frame.  With 
avisynth this is easy (separateFields, trim, and weave), and video is gorgeous. 
   Unfortunately we can't modify the upstream system and need to find a way to 
play this under Linux w/ VLC. 

Is hacking avcodec a really bad idea?  It's certainly a last resort, and sad 
its come to that, but I've not been able to come up with any better ideas that 
don't involve ditching VLC.

Also, for BlackMagic, what's the issue you mentioned with their software? Let 
me know, I'll communicate it to them.  They have gotten much better recently 
responding to issues.

Better 1/2 right than 1 wrong as stopgap.

Indeed. Would be great having more information, I noticed that the first
frame/field triggers an error btw.
