I've extracted two PNG images from an interlaced VOB file. I'd like to deinterlace at least one of them. I don't care if it gives a blurry result, I just want it not to look "blocky". In fact, these two images are the same thing, but the interlacing looks different. Image 1 Image 2 Is there an automatic or manual way to get a single deinterlaced picture? I'm looking for a solution that implies the use of one of these images, or both of them. Thank you.

Photoshop was open so I did it for you, is this what you want? I opened one image and put the other one on a new layer on top of it, with 50% transparency. Result

Looks really nice! I'll go with that. Thank you! And I'll remember that trick. By the way, it's my avatar now. lol

For deinterlacing there are lots of filters available (e.g. Yadif or QTGMC), but in this case a simple blend is better. This is in AviSynth what FODA did: 
f0 = ImageReader("image1.png").Trim(0, -1).ConvertToRGB32
f1 = ImageReader("image2.png").Trim(0, -1).ConvertToRGB32
Layer(f0, f1, level=128)

Funny you posted that pic, since I, too, wear a miniature belt on my head.
