Rage3D Article - ATI Radeon HD5450 & 5570 HTPC Addendum: Deinterlacing Performance

***Lupine*** · Feb 12, 2010, 12:33 PM

In this addendum, we talk to AMD about the deinterlacing performance issues, and test out a driver update to see if the situation is improved, and whether or not AMD's HD5450 and HD5570 should remain on your short list of HTPC video cards.

Hotfix driver now available from AMD - http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles...on-HD5400.aspx

Good job guys!

So Jim, in your opinion, do you think the 790GX is underpowered and cannot run VAD on the Cheese Slices video? Or, do you think it is a driver bug? I do not have time to test the new Hotfix Driver until next week to see if it will make a difference.

The HD3300 doesn't have enough ass to run Vector Adaptive Deinterlacing without significant stuttering. I just tested it at 1920x1200, and it ran about 13-19FPS. With Enforced Smooth Playback, it was smooth and quality looks like this:

There was a lot of flicker and shimmer.

That's my experience too. Oh well, the only interlaced content is TV occasionally and it looks decent using Motion Adaptive.

Is Vector Adaptive Deinterlacing the best type of deinterlacing? As in on a more powerful card e.g. a 5870 should Vector Adaptive Deinterlacing be selected or would automatic select Vector Adaptive Deinterlacing automatically anyway?

Dr. Zhivago · Feb 14, 2010, 09:31 PM

Yes, VAD can be considered the best type for most content. Automatic should detect the type of content and apply the most appropriate method.
