If you aren't using a progressive scan capable display, the deinterlacing doesn't come into play.

Deinterlacing takes the two halves of the screen (called fields) and assembles them into one completed screen (called a frame). The completed frame is then sent to the display.

Our article on progressive scan covers this topic far, far better than I have just done. See the link below.
