[FFmpeg-user] De-interlacing and Inverse Telecining Questions

[Young Kim]

Hello, 

I've been reading through the ffmpeg documentation about deinterlacing and inverse telecining, and it's a bit confusing. In particular, there seems to be a myriad ways of achieving this (i.e. yadif, fieldmatch, and kerndeint). Does anyone happen to know what the difference is among these, and if there is a way to automatically deinterlace / inverse telecine an input accordingly?

Thanks,
Young Kim
