By the way, I'm about to conduct a fairly thorough comparison between Flux and other smoothers to test compressibility, retention of detail, speed, etc. I intend to test Deen.Undot (or whichever way round it goes ;)), TemporalCleaner, TemporalSoften, and RemoveDirt.RemoveGrain. Does anyone have any suggestions for other filters I should compare against? (Must run in YV12.)
Also suggestions for methodology are welcome. At the moment I plan on using the same source material (obviously), and for compressibility this script: Code:
Mpeg2Source("blah.d2v") Code:
Mpeg2Source("blah.d2v") Anyway, I think it should be interesting to see how the various filters perform. I have a gut feeling that Flux will be faster than most, but what will be most revealing is the compressibility and detail retention tests... |
Hi Ross,
nice idea, ... but one question. Why do you convert to YUY2 at the end of your script as you deal with YV12 input and YV12 output? Would mean too much quality loss due Chromainterpolation and shure a loss of speed ;-) EDIT: Uops!, I do see you also intend to test compressibility and so in CCE it anyway will be converted to YUY2 or in TmpgEnc to RGB24. |

1/ Undot.Deen 2/ FluxsmoothST.Undot 3/ FluxsmoothS.TemporalSoften Speed is near the same (except for 4 that is bigger than others). Compressibility is in the related order but quality is in the reverse order ! Finalyl I encoded my jobs with 1, as always. Note than 3 is too smooth in the end. I didn't try Removedirt yet (works in YV12 ?) Also suggestions for methodology are welcome. At the moment I plan on using the same source material (obviously), and for compressibility this script: Quote:

My "best choice" is for the moment Deen.Undot. So I need something to compensate the temporal (and not spacial ;-)) only work of FlouxsmoothT. The question is : what ? Quote:
For sure, and no filter at all is even faster :-) |

dialhot: I think you should give RemoveGrain a try as a possible replacement for Undot. Even at it's lightest setting (mode=1) it has better compression that Undot but does the same job. The default setting is mode=2. I've been using your Deen().Undot() combo in both my DVD and AVI source scripts, but recently I came across a series on DVD (Babylon 5) that had a lot of film grain and dirt artifacts. A combination of RemoveDirt and RemoveGrain did the job fantasticly. Check out my thread in the Avisynth forum please.
BTW I don't think RemoveGrain has any problem with YV12 input, despite the documentation. I loaded a DVD source no problem without any colorspace conversions (DVD is YV12, right?). |

I will try removeGrain. I already saw your post on this and that made me discovered the filter (I only knew removedirt before it). @Sansgrip Did you try Undot.Deen without any parameters or other filters and a lanczos resize in the script ? That's how I do my DVD to DVD jobs. I add a temporalsofter + DCTfilter in case of DVD to KVCD. But use Lanczos, not bicubic ! |

Sansgrip: you don't do an overscan/overlap to save some space?
Dialhot: I look forward to any findings you come across. I always appreciate your input on scripts -- so far they've always worked wonders! |

I forgot to use it in my test of DVD-RB :-(. But anything went correctly even without that : Q found by new RB-OPT was 17. Anythign is PERFECT :-) Thank you Sansgrip to have done the mod in RB-OPT ! |
