Interlaced video shows ugly comb-like artifacts, which are visible on
fast movement. Enabling this typically inserts the yadif video filter in

This behaves exactly like the ``deinterlace`` input property (usually
mapped to ``d``).
- ``auto`` is a technicality. Strictly speaking, the default for this option
- is deinterlacing disabled, but the ``auto`` case is needed if ``yadif`` was
- added to the filter chain manually with ``--vf``. Then the core shouldn't
- disable deinterlacing just because the ``--deinterlace`` was not set.
+ Keep in mind that this **will** conflict with manually inserted
+ deinterlacing filters, unless you take care. (Since mpv 0.27.0, even the
+ hardware deinterlace filters will conflict. Also since that version,
+ ``--deinterlace=auto`` was removed, which used to mean that the default
+ interlacing option of possibly inserted video filters was used.)
