That's exactly what I thought! More importantly, Xine and Kaffeine will refuse
to de-interlace the resulting video when played (presumably they assume an
Xvid is already de-interlaced), which makes it painful to watch.
So, if you want to vertically scale your video, or watch it on your computer
monitor, you have to de-interlace at encode time.
Or does anybody know any better?
