VP20/30/ABT102 - Does it do proper deinterlacing for 1080i inputs?

[shortround]

Looking at the manual for the iScan VP20, it doesn't make it clear whether the various forced film modes (2:2 even etc) of the ABT102 card work with 1080i inputs, or whether they only work properly for SD inputs.

I'm looking for a cheap solution for properly deinterlacing 25p material from a 1080i50 stream. Can anyone please confirm if the VP20/30 with ABT102 card is capable of this, or recommend an alternative if not?

Thanks.

a S/H Lumagen HDP will do what you want.
