Avisynth: Extreme Cartoon Filtering!
 

I captured some episodes of family guy to standard VCD (just some tests... quality quite sucks)

Now I want as much episodes as possible to be on 1 KVCD (->ULBR)

I experimented a bit arround with some filters
Here is my current script:

Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Mpegdecoder.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\FluxSmooth-2.5.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Warpsharp.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\undot.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Dup.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Deen.dll")
Loadplugin("C:\Programme\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\asharp.dll")

MPEGSource("F:\****\101 Family Guy - Death Has A Shadow.mpg")
ConverttoYV12()
MergeChroma(blur(1.58))
MergeLuma(blur(0.05))
BlindPP()
asharp(1,1,1,true)
deen("a2d",3,9,0,0)
fluxsmooth()
WarpSharp(depth=98, blur=3, bump=98, cubic=-0.6)
Undot()
Dup()


Any suggestion? any filters? any settings?

Default parameters of Dup() are too strong and you will see bad results (shaking) during traveling movements.

I suggest you "Dup(threshold=1,blend=true)". You can raise the threshold value a little more (the default is 3, but it's too much).

just realized that "too strong" :lol:

but WOW!
compression is faster than realtime, results are fine and small!
Have to encode at CQ90 to get season 1 on 1 KVCD!!!

How about some Motion Adaptive stuff???
Would that be usefull for my already heavy filtered source?
