I am certainly no expert on this at all, but (I think) what I've
learnt from various threads on this in the past is that you only need
to deinterlace if you're sending the video to a PC monitor. For
viewing on a TV you only need interlaced.

Not sure which side of the fence things like LCD TVs sit, though.
Someone else may care to comment on that.

Hope this is at least partially right!
