iDVD bad deinterlacing or wrong DVD norm handling?
Hello,
I asked someone to look at two files that I created with iDVD out of the same source.
One was 3000kbps, the other was 5900kbps (iDVD seems to never use a higher bitrate!)
He said, that the bitrates are still enough to avoid to harsh artefacts. However he said, it looks as if bad deinterlacing or even a bad handling of the norm (PAL DVD) was done.
COULD IT BE THAT iDVD is not good at that or, that because it is an American App, it maybe doesn't handle PAL that well?
Here are the two iDVD encodes, if you care to have a look https://www.wetransfer.com/downloads/02aae2e65d04775a7c16a0707005743a20160119171 248/3fd95dd4642f954e992310e2b7c0383920160119171248/7b0040
This is the original source (h.264) http://www.jottacloud.com/p/eichhoernchen/209b5ff1056f47f2a380d9a958180012
and what Toast did of it (setting custom, half-pel, 7-8.5mbps, audio 448kbps, progressive) http://www.jottacloud.com/p/eichhoernchen/94007a89aa0a469d898ae91d208e0164
(side note: Toast, too won't use a higher bitrate than 5700kbps for this cartoon, however I could get Toast to use 8mbps when I had it convert a HD-movie to DVD-video. While iDVD even uses 5900kbps, when given HD-content).
