Less work for the deinterlacing filter.

For normal PAL and NTSC broadcasts, but not for telecined NTSC movies, am 
I right?

I thought you only need to inverse teleine when capturing NTSC movies. 
Normal NTSC TV broadcasts can be deinterlaced with pp=[md|lb...], right?

Mplayer HTML documentation says: "[...]you must crop vertically by 
multiples of four or else the inverse-telecine filter will not have 
proper data." Which informations included in the TV signal are lost when 
cropping? I think DVD has something like a soft-telecine flag but TV?

My questions are related to Kalva, a GUI application for tv capturing.
I can only test PAL, so I need your advice for NTSC countries.

Thanks,
