1. A method comprising: comparing a preceding field and a succeeding field of a video signal for motion at a locus of a current pixel in a current field to be interpolated; in an instance a result of the comparison is less than a predetermined threshold indicative of motion, determining which of a current pixel location in the preceding field and the succeeding field is closer to an estimate of a neighbor pixel and using the result of the determination to decide which of the preceding and succeeding fields to use to interpolate the current pixel based on symmetric temporal neighbors of the current pixel; and in an instance the result of the comparison is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold indicative of motion, interpolating the current pixel based on symmetric spatial neighbors of the current pixel at a line above and a line below the current pixel in the current frame.
