Is there a way to enable automatic deinterlacing for MKVs extract from NTSC DVD files? Playing back DVD content I see strong interlacing artifiacts (offset horizontal lines, particularly around edges). (A quick check with VLC, turning on its deinterlacing feature eliminates that artifact, showing it's deinterlacing that's needed.) Not sure if this is a Server or Application-specific question. Thanks.

I've ripped several DVDs using MakeMKV, without reencoding. The original DVDs are all interlaced, but after playing them with webclient on iOS I noticed that they are not being de-interlaced. I also checked the media information in Emby and all of them have the "Interlaced" attribute set to "No" so I guess Emby is not trying to de-interlace them when transcoding. I also found this thread from last year but I'm not sure if there was any advance since then: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/5437-any-way-to-set-mb-server-to-deinterlace/?hl=deinterlace Is it possible to switch the Interlaced attribute to yes in any way so the server will deinterlaced the video on transcoding? Should I encode all my DVDs from the original MPEG2 into h264 applying deinterlacing in the process? Thanks.
