I found that deinterlacing with Hybrid on a slower preset / lossless compression, yields best results when processing in TVAI after. I don’t use TVAI built-in deinterlacing function.
but based on your samples you posted above, it seems the issue you having is the colors are to vibrant. TVAI seems to be doing a decent job upscaling perse.
I would suggest you to use Hybrid to deinterlace you source (lossless compression), then take those videos and color grade them to a more realistic color spectrum, export them as lossless compression, then upscale them using Dione TV (or Iris, or any other AI you wish trying)
