Bob 2X is a double-rate deinterlacer, so if your video is > 50% of the
display's refresh rate, it can't be used. Note that even though you
have a 50Hz display, you may be running a modeline that gives something
close-enough for the display, but still < 2x the video's refresh
rate--i.e. 49.97Hz refresh would prevent a double-rate deinterlacer for
720p25, for instance.
Besides, there are many other deinterlacers available. Have you tried
them? If you're set on Bob 2x, I hear Samsung has some 120Hz displays
out. :)
