New filter in the works...
Here's a sample (from Signs) of a new filter I'm developing. This filter's raison d'etre is to increase compressibility, not reduce noise, so it should be used in conjunction with a denoiser.
Here's the script: Code:
LoadPlugin("Debug\Edge.dll") http://www.digitalfaq.com/archives/error.gif You might want to save the image to a file and zoom in with your favourite viewer. You should notice that low-detail areas such as the wall behind Mel Gibson are significantly smoother (which means significantly more compressible) than with FaeryDust alone, while his face and other important parts of the frame remain really quite detailed. It'll be a while before this one is ready to go out the door, but I thought I'd share some preliminary results with you ;). |
Hello SansGrip,
Yesterday I made a post about something like this in the spanish forum I knew a filter for virtualdub called Smart Smoother HQ ( a very special spatial smoother) The avisynth version: http://cultact-server.novi.dk/kpo/av...th_hiq_as.html The filter looks like this: SmoothHiQ(Diameter, Luma Threshold, Chroma threshold, Amount, Maintain Difference). The recommended settings SmoothHiQ(7, 20, 25, 200, 5) I was very impressed with this cleaning MPEG artifacts and blocks, so I thing it could be a great choice for low quality sources (old divx...). By the way, it's long slower than your great filters. Do you think it could be useful ? Best Regards. |

Oh, and another difference is that Edge will be written in MMX-optimized assembler, so it should be fairly fast :). |
I can feel that we're going to have another "Encoding Party" very soon :wink:

"Very soon" might be a little optimistic ;).
