field deinterlace prevents resize

hello there - i was just loading my usual AVIsynth script and i found today that i got an "unrecognized exception" error when trying to load into virtualdub. the "unrecognized exception" referred to BilinearResize(480,344,0,0.5). the avs files loaded fine when i got rid of FieldDeinterlace(full=true,blend=false) which preceded the resize. i had used the same filters before and it always loaded fine - why did i lose the ability to resize this time?! (avisynth 2.07) thanks for any insights

You can crop 0.5 lines? O_O How's that work? :P

Use BilinearResize(480,344) - there is no soft/sharp settings on Bilinearresize - only bicubic.

re: bilinear soft/sharp 

yeah, i tried both bucubicresize(480,344) and bilinearesize(480,344) and there was the same problem...

Post the failing script.

the script 

sorry, shoulda posted it earlier...generated in gordian knot so ill include all the extras...

field deinterlace defaults works fine 

i was just encoding another file and went to a previously used avisynth script which had fielddeinterlace(), otherwise the same. in this case there was no problem with bilinear or bicubic resize. i dont really have any understanding of the different settings - only tried (full=true,blend=false) after i was having interlace artefact problems and someone recommended it ()
