The arrangements and procedures of this invention adaptively process video data. Specifically, at least first and second fields of an interlaced frame are deinterlaced to form intermediate progressive first and second frames. The first intermediate progressive frame includes scanlines of a first temporal instant. The second intermediate progressive frame includes scanlines of a second temporal instant. The first and second temporal instants are different from one another. The first and second intermediate progressive frames are independently resampled to form respective first and second resampled frames. Scanlines from the first and second resampled frames are interleaved to generate a resampled interlaced frame.
