Tmpgenc -

TMPGEnc introduced a range of deinterlacing methods that went far beyond simple blending. It allowed users to "inverse telecine" (IVTC), effectively reversing the process that turned 24fps film into 30fps video. This restored the crisp, cinematic feel of the original source. For anime fansubbers working with Japanese television rips, TMPGEnc wasn't just a tool; it was an essential component of the workflow, allowing them to deliver pristine video files that defied the limitations of their source material.
