Well, I have looked at mpg. The thing that stumbles me is awful 
interlacing effects, when many
birds fly, three phases are on the same frame. Birds are smashed 
completely, it is seen even
when video is running, not paused. Next time, when Inuyasha walks, three 
phases are mixed
together also. I do not know how to handle this. If there were two 
phases mixed, pullup filter
should work. But unfortunately I do not know how to handle three-field 
composition.
I have read a post by Rich Felker, so I hope such filter will appear 
sometime.
Maybe I repeat an advice - since you have supported producers, it is 
nothing bad in downloading
some existing fansubs.
