// YADIF deinterlacing filter (original by Michael Niedermayer, in MPlayer).
//
// Good deinterlacing is very hard. YADIF, despite its innocious-sounding
// name (Yet Another DeInterlacing Filter) is probably the most commonly
// used (non-trivial) deinterlacing filter in the open-source world.
// It works by trying to fill in the missing lines from neighboring ones
// (spatial interpolation), and then constrains that estimate within an
// interval found from previous and next frames (temporal interpolation).
// It's not very fast, even in GPU implementation, but 1080i60 -> 1080p60
// realtime conversion is well within range for a mid-range GPU.
//
// The inner workings of YADIF are poorly documented; implementation details
// are generally explained the .frag file. However, a few things should be
// mentioned here: YADIF has two modes, with and without a “spatial interlacing
// check” which basically allows more temporal change in areas of high detail.
// (The variant with the check corresponds to the original's modes 0 and 1, and
// the variant without to modes 2 and 3. The remaining difference is whether it
// is frame-doubling or not, which in Movit is up to the driver, not the
// filter.)
//
// Neither mode is perfect by any means. If the spatial check is off, the
// filter possesses the potentially nice quality that a static picture
// deinterlaces exactly to itself. (If it's on, there's some flickering
// on very fine vertical detail. The picture is nice and stable if no such
// detail is present, though.) But then, certain patterns, like horizontally
// scrolling text, leaves residues. Both have issues with diagonal lines at
// certain angles leaving stray pixels, although in practical applications,
// YADIF is pretty good.
//
// In general, having the spatial check on (the default) is the safe choice.
// However, if you are reasonably certain that the image comes from a video source
// (ie., no graphical overlays), or if the case of still images is particularly
// important for you (e.g., slides from a laptop), you could turn it off.
// It is slightly faster, although in practice, it does not mean all that much.
// You need to decide before finalize(), as the choice gets compiled into the shader.
//
// YADIF needs five fields as input; the previous two, the current one, and
// then the two next ones. (By convention, they come in that order, although if
// you reverse them, it doesn't matter, as the filter is symmetric. It _does_
// matter if you change the ordering in any other way, though.) They need to be
// of the same resolution, or the effect will assert-fail. If you cannot supply
// this, you could simply reuse the current field for previous/next as
// required; it won't be optimal in any way, but it also won't blow up on you.
//
// This requirement to “see the future” will mean you have an extra full frame
// of delay (33.3 ms at 60i, 40 ms at 50i). You will also need to tell the
// filter for each and every invocation if the current field (ie., the one in
// the middle input) is a top or bottom field (neighboring fields have opposite
// parity, so all the others are implicit).
