Just retested, since the football world cup just started transmitting.
kernel deint looks fairly good for "regular" tv, but it really falls
flat on its face with HDTV content. It seems slightly jerky, where bob
is 100% smooth like you would expect from TV.

So my experience so far is that bob is the only usable deinterlacer for
HDTV, while it is painful for SDTV content. With kernel deint, the
opposite is true.
