Avisynth: Help on choosing filters to reduce blocks and remove noise?
 

i'm encoding a normal svcd at 1811 kbps 2pass and there are a lot of high action scenes in the film, can ne1 suggest ne filters/tmpgenc settings i could use to reduce blocks and remove noise in the output file? and make it sharper maybe

PS the source is DVD vobs and ive already tried fluxsmooth (default values) and temporal smoother(2,2)

ne ideas?

:?:
what's the total time of the movie?
:)

well its 2 hrs 19 mins and im trying to get it onto 3 cdr normal SVCD format

easy: :wink:
choice the template here(352x240lbr):
http://www.kvcd.net/dvd-models.html

and use this script(change what you need):

[AVISYNTH_LanczosResize, Fluxsmooth, Blockbuster, Legalclip]
0=LoadPlugin(!FluxSmooth.dll)
1=LoadPlugin(!Blockbuster.dll)
2=LoadPlugin(!Legalclip.dll)
3=LanczosResize(^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight)
i4=FluxSmooth()
5=Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_m ax=10,variance=.5,seed=1)
6=Legalclip()
7=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom)
!FluxSmooth.dll=C:\xxxx\FluxSmooth.dll
!Blockbuster.dll=C:\xxxx\Blockbuster.dll
!Legalclip.dll=C:\xxx\Legalclip.dll


ps:
i use this script in dvd2svcd
:wink:

doubts?......post here,all members help. :)

is there ne way i can keep the format as compliant svcd

if not how would i do filesize prediction with the template u have advised me to use? is there ne easy way that is accurate?

yes,....i think,
get the template skvcd-352x240-_ntsc_.mcf
:wink:

if not how would i do filesize prediction with the template u have advised me to use? is there ne easy way that is accurate?

alright how do i do filesize prediction with the skvcd (pal)

easy way?...not for me i don't use skvcd,only kvcd!

but,wait ,i call for help! :wink:

Hi yauman. That's the correct template to try :D. SKVCD.

Kwag, 8)
i "thank you" for yauman and for me!
:D

gulp i knew it would be that equation, have had bad experiences with that equation which involve a waste of many hours

Question (lol yeah sorry i ask so many)
why do u divide by 24 in that equation to get the wanted mpeg sample size?
when using skvcd do i want to take a cd as 700mb or 800mb? i wouldve thought 700 cos its svcd

extract part of :

http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2102

read this:(step 2)

"...so a 700MB data CD-R will actually fit ~800MB in VCD format. So we'll use an 80 minute CD-R for this example."

:wink:

yah but does it apply to svcd format as well? just wondering
should i take it as 700 or 800

i'm in doubt,but think that Kwag get this time in 1 cd!
:? what post talk about this??!!!....wait.....!
use the "search",i'm with you! :wink:

read please! :wink:

in that post it said summin about needing a different gop for skvcd so should i just use kvcd and if so tell me which template? and also where can i get that matrix beta1 notch

in the same thread in next page:
http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic....e60eef7dd3398d

the BETA-1a notch :
8 9 12
9 10 14
12 14 18

GOP 1-12-1-1-24

change this values in the template, or in setting(tmpgenc). :wink:

ok i done that(u told me to change matrix and gop), heres my maths
from this post: http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic....92b3230f1a671a

i took cd size as 813,019,155

813,019,155 * 3cds = 2,439,057,465bytes or 2326.06646060943603515625 megabytes - audio size (167mb) total video size = 2159.06646060943603515625mb

movie is 208896frames long and 139.2667 mins long

using formula
208896/139.2667/24 = 62.498803255146002872187649593107

2159.0664606094360351562/62.498803255146002872187649593107
predicted sample size = 34.545724848446016218147225796569
managed to find cq_vbr value of around 22.0956
that sound ok?
