1. A method for processing video information, the method comprising:
calculating a plurality of motion indicators for a plurality of pixels in a current field and at least one corresponding plurality of pixels in at least one adjacent field, wherein at least one of said plurality of motion indicators indicate an amount of weave artifacts that are created if said plurality of pixels in said current field are woven with said corresponding plurality of pixels in said at least one adjacent field;
combining said calculated plurality of motion indicators to generate a blend control value that indicates an amount of weaving and spatial interpolation that is to be done for a current output sample value; and
generating said current output sample value based on said generated blend control value.
