Tvheadend

Latest version 4 has really evolved great, so thanks a lot to all contributors. I am using tvheadend for years now and it replaced lot of my setup at home.

I was looking into transcoding recently and I started to use it instead of my home-brew, script powered solution to provide low-bandwidth streams to my mobile devices.

I observed that 720p50 sources are transcoded to 50 fps streams.
But 1080i50 is transcoded to 25p, so temporal resolution is lost and really noticable when 720p50 and 1080i50 sources are compared against each other.

Any idea of adding a simple switch to the profiles which allows the user to use interlaced encoding or allows him to encode into 50p?

Looking forward hearing your oppinion on this, thanks!
