Avisynth: Short review of Blockbuster/Faerydust encode
 

AWESOME!!

:mrgreen:

Now, is there anything else you guys recommend?

My script (so far) is:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Fit CD and Avisynth Filters\Blockbuster.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Fit CD and Avisynth Filters\DustV4.dll")
AVIsource("C:\Documents and Settings\Steve\Desktop\The Others.avi")
Converttoyuy2

Blockbuster( method="noise", variance=.5, seed=1 )

Faerydust()
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see, not much going on here, compared to the scripts I've seen. Anything else I should consider??

If you want to use Blockbuster you should run it after FaeryDust. What's happening in this script is that Blockbuster is adding noise then FaeryDust is taking it away again ;).

Hi Reno,
Try something like this: :wink:

Hi kwag!
I saw this script in the "what's happening" area...
IMHO, it would be better if it's like this:

legalclip()
GripCrop( 352, 240, overscan=1 )
GripSize()
faerydust()
Convolution3d(preset="movieLQ")
Gripborders()
legalclip()

Because there is no need to apply C3D and Dust to the borders.
(and this way it should be quicker :wink: )

You're right muaddib :D
I'm fixing that page right now.

Thanks,
