RPi deinterlace - able?

Hi All,

I've been reading posts on this forum, the openelec forum and other random googled locations, but I cant seem to locate any clear information about the ability of the RPi to deinterlace DVB-T MPEG-2 content.

I have the MPEG-2 licence, and it plays back recorded TV (recorded using TVHeadend on a QNAP NAS).

When i go to watch a recorded sport program (soccer, football etc), there are what I can only describe as interlace artifacts. I'm no codec guru, so I'm pretty sure i've got the wrong terminology.

When I watch the same recorded content on my ION (openelec), the playback is fine.

From my googling, it seems that there is some preliminary deinterlacing support (weave, bob), but i cant seem to locate how to turn it on in the XBMC interface (auto, on deinterlace and the picture looks the same) or how to enable it (-d option in OMXplayer).

I'm not even sure if the dialy build i'm using (stateofme) has this support included in it yet.

Any guidance would be appreciated. For non-fast moving DVB-T recorded MPEG-2 content, the playback is ok. I only notice when watching a ball go across the ground that it gets lots of artifacts during playback.

Cheers,

Nathan
