script for DivX/XVid?

hey guys just wanted to know what the general consensus was for filter combos from "high quality" Divx/Xvid sources. I know there is so much debate going on right now on unfilter this, stmedianfilter that... but I was wondering if I should

a) use the DVD optimal script? with or without spacedust? or
b) use the VHS optimal script? or
c) something else entirely different?

Love to hear what others think!

:wink:

my friend and "my son" J-Wo,
:wink:
ps @ all: "my son" cos the J-Wo's avatar seems my real son! :lol:

J-Wo, i think that the Kwags last script is fine
using the DVD optimal script without spacedust,
if your souse is clean!

we all want to find a better script ever,
and doing tests....but the script is great,
in my opinion!
maybe is better wait for Kwag or
another great friend opinions :!:

i post my testing script here:(skvcd-480x480 mpeg1)
http://www.kvcd.net/forum/viewtopic....cee60062359088
and will be good if you make little tests with this too!
see the results are fine cos is faster and clean!
:wink:

I have been using Kwag's Clean DVD script for HQ DivX and XviD files. Every now and then (depends on the quality of the movie) there's a few blocks, but not enough to sacrifice crispness. :wink:

I've simply been using whatever Kwag has posted in the 'Latest Script' post. One thing I've found useful, however, is to use 352x480 rather than 528x480. I've (obviously) been able to use (sometimes much) higher CQ values at the resolution which helps mask some of the lost quality by 'double-encoding' (ie., from DVD to divx to kvcd).

I've been using this one for xvid sources. Its slow and still under development, but it cleans them up nicely.

Code:

AddBorders(32,32,32,32) 

Blockbuster(method="dither",detail_min=1,detail_max=10,variance=0.3,seed=5832) 

MSoften(3,3,4,3,pre=1,post=1,speed=4,showmask=false) 

Crop(32,32,Width()-64,Height()-64) 

Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max=8,variance=0.5,seed=5823) 

FluxSmooth() 

Sharpen(0.3) 

BicubicResize(432,336)

Girv, I'm using your srcipt, and I notice the image has a slight vertical 'stretch' to it, is this going to affect playback on TV??

You should adjust the BicubicResize parameters to suit your needs, or adapt the script to use GripCrop/GripSize/GripBorders etc. The parameters I posted were just as an example.

I changed parameters, but I can't seem to fix the 'stretch effect.' Any suggestions?

girv	05-28-2003 04:02 AM

@Reno: I'm not sure what you mean, there's nothing in the script I posted that should affect the size (other than the resize obviously ;).

Can you post the script you're using please and maybe a few screenshots to explain what you're seeing? PM me for my email address if you want to send them that way. Also what is the resolution of your source?
