Title: Indivision ECS deinterlace
Post by: CritAnime on November 18, 2012, 06:35:15 PM
Got my 600 running at 800x600 through the Indi ECS. However it's giving interlaced artifacts. Is there a way of forcing deinterlacing on the card.

There is an application that allows you to make changes to the video settings.  I think a disk came with mine but I could be wrong.  Go to the Indivision website and download it.

I got the configuration program but there doesn't see to be an option for interlacing. I have tried both 1.0 and 1.25 modes. But nothing. If it's something I have to live with then so be it. Also does anyone know what the graffiti modes do.

It doesn't deinterlace and none of the other Amiga scandoubler/flickerfixers are capable of that either.

You need to buy a $$$$s video processor to get deinterlacing.

Find out about graffiti here:

Unless you already know you have some software that can use the Graffiti, then you probably will not get any use out of that feature.

Cheers for that. For some reason I was always under the impression that it did this.

It does de-interlace, you put an interlaced display in and a progressive display comes out. I believe all amiga flicker fixers use weaving.

Decent TV's have motion compensation, but even they aren't perfect.
 
For workbench use (and anything that lets you pick a screenmode), you should be able to configure a slow scan progressive 800x600. The indivision will just double up frames and as it's never been interlaced then you won't have interlace artefacts.
