You could play with C3D or other temporal filters, and use very conservative low values
I don't mind waiting forever either if it means better quality!
Would Convolution3D(preset="movieHQ") be conservative enough? And if so, where would you suggest it should go? After SpaceDust()?

I also noticed you're not using DCTFilter anymore...is it still needed
I really don't notice that much file size reduction after using the mergechroma/luma functions. You can use C3D after the mergeluma. So the order I would use, would be this:

Code:
LegalClip() 
GripCrop( X, Y ) 
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize") 
SpaceDust() 
sharpen(0.7) 
mergechroma(blur( 1.58 )) 
mergeluma(blur(0.7)) 
Convolution3D(preset="movieHQ")
GripBorders() 
LegalClip()

Kwag:

Just checked out your sticky for the current optimal script (so you can ignore my PM asking for what script you use now! ) I was just wondering if you are still using overscan=2 in the GripCrop command. Thanks!

I'm currently trying muaddib's suggestion on using "overlap" instead of "overscan"

Oh man! KVCD.net is really an amazing and dynamic place!
I melted my modem and lost my connection for 3 days...
When I came back I found lots of different ideas and filters and optimizations! Just GREAT

Btw kwag, I use "overlap" for anamorphic/widescreen and "resize" for fullscreen.

Have you guys tried exchanging Sharpen to Unfilter? Unfilter is a helluva lot faster and should produce similar sharpening.

for me is the very best of all filter that i know!

any value suggestions for unfilter? the readme says, something between -100 an +100

nerver used it before, wanna give it a try


edit:

i tried several settings now. if i increase the unfitler values to maximum i get a slightly shaper picture than with sharpen, but i couldn´t notice any increase in encoding speed

hi Kane
yes,of course...

use gently,high values gives strong sharpness.

try in a sample,depend of the size(480x480 or 352x240,etc) that you use:

unfilter(5,5) or unfilter(10,10) or unfilter(20,20).

in 480x480 mpeg2 ,for me is better:

unfilter(10,10) !

have you ever tried combining those two filters, i just made a sample using this script

Code:
LegalClip()
GripCrop(528, 576, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize")
Spacedust()
UnFilter(10,10)
sharpen(0.7)
mergechroma(blur( 1.58 )) 
mergeluma(blur(0.7)) 
GripBorders() 
LegalClip()
Sampler(length=24)
it takes 40 sec longer to encode, but gives a sharper and more clear picture, better than using only one filter
the sample is about 1.2MB bigger with both filters , hmm, let´s see what the fully encoded movie will look like

Hmm, I'll have to take back my words regarding the speed of Unfilter. It seems that Sharpen has been optimized since I last tried it out and it's nearly as fast as Unfilter. I don't know what their difference is in terms of quality but nevertheless could be worth a try.

Not at all Boulder In a 30 second clip, the speed to encode was 2:09 with sharpen, and 1:57 with unsharpen Quality and file size are almost identical using a test clip with Sharpen(0.3) and unfilter( 30, 30 ).
This is under AviSynth 2.08.

You can get it at the software section at doom9.org.

This is a great thread...
can anyone answer the following, (I`m sure you can.. )

What are the differences that you find using:
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize")
instead of:
GripSize(resizer="lanczosresize")

And...
is the argument:

sharpen(x.x)

an imported .dll...or is this a "built-in" function of Avisynth. (NoOb alert!)

Thanks a lot guys!..

Thanks for the answer for sharpen Kane..

I`ve been using lanczos on all my scrips recently, and have
seen a lot of people using bicubic...just wondering why?

Lanczos produces sharper edges, which then create more visible mpeg artifacts by the encoder.
