Deinterlace Filter:

All existing analog television systems and many digital systems arrange scan lines of one frame into two. One field contains all even lines, another field contains all odd lines. When the fields are then displayed, interlaced scanning produces visual defects called interlace artifacts or combing, which occur when objects in the image move around.

1. There is only one function needed to filter a frame.

   void SRI_Deinterlace_Filter(
         unsigned char* sourceImage,
         unsigned char* targetImage,
         int sampling_format,
         unsigned char* progressive,
         int width,
         int height
   );

2. This filter supports many YUV or RGB formats, including:
   1. IMAGE_FORMAT_YUV_400 ( sampling_format = 1):
   2. IMAGE_FORMAT_PACKED_YUV_422 (sampling_format = 4):
   3. IMAGE_FORMAT_PACKED_YUV_444 (sampling_format = 5):
   4. IMAGE_FORMAT_PACKED_RGB_444 (sampling_format = 6):
   5. IMAGE_FORMAT_PACKED_BGR_444 (sampling_format = 7):
   6. IMAGE_FORMAT_PLANAR_YUV_420 (sampling_format = 8):
   7. IMAGE_FORMAT_PLANAR_YUV_422 (sampling_format = 9):
   8. IMAGE_FORMAT_PLANAR_YUV_444 (sampling_format = 10):
   9. IMAGE_FORMAT_PLANAR_RGB_444 (sampling_format = 11):
   10. IMAGE_FORMAT_PLANAR_BGR_444 (sampling_format = 12):
3. The input image can be two separated fields which are not interleaved together as one frame yet (when 'progressive = 0'); or can be a whole frame image with two fields already interleaved together (in this case 'progressive = 1').
4. The output images are always in progressive planar formats. Two separated fields are always interleaved together and deinterlaced filter is applied to remove the artifacts. Also, the output image is always in 'YYYYYY..... UUUUUU..... VVVVVV....' planar format (can be in 444, 422, 420 sampling format).
