Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional

While I'm at it, I'd like to ask my customers' opinions on this encoding change I'm making. I'm uploading one of the newly encoded quarterfinals videos. It will be called tx_qf1m1alt.wmv. If you guys could compare it to the original tx_qf1m1.wmv file and PM me your preference, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to make sure I'm not making things worse. For those that have forgotten: SOAP Lone Star Archives

Encoding differences:
Original
Uses drop field deinterlacing. Moving objects have crisp borders, but we're basically dumping half the resolution by dropping every other line. Thus the blurry letters.

Alt
Uses blend deinterlacing. Moving objects have blurry borders. Interlaced fields are blended together preserving info and keeping detail in stationary objects, like the text.

Basically, I'm looking for if the motion blur is distracting or troublesome. looking around 1:45 in the vids is a good example.
