how to set the deinterlacing method on Intel Hardware (Kaby Lake)?

Hey Guys,

Problem:

If I play interlaced videos on my rig (mainly live TV over TVhEadend 4.2, dvb-s2, SD mpg2 and 1080i h.264) the best I get is VAAPI-BOB deinterlacin. I can manually set the deinterlacing to something more sofisticated like to motion adaptive from the OSD video menü but every time I change channel it falls back to bob

Question:

how can I set the preferred deinterlacing method and save it / override bob?

e. g. over advancedsettings.xml?

My Setup:

generic x64 HTPC with an Intel i3-7100 (Kaby Lake)

LibreELEC 9 alpha (Kodi 18 Leia)

in settings HQ Scaler 20%, VAAPI activated, for all codecs (MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and VC-1)

any help appreciated and thanked for.

There is also the option in the Video OSD Settings to save the current settings as default.
