I'm currently trying out the asharp's adaptive sharpening. If it works as advertized ( ), then I'll turn it on. From the readme file of asharp, here's what it does:

- adaptive thresholding to avoid noise enhancement
- block adaptive sharpenning to avoid DCT block edges enhancement
- block based adaptive thresholding to avoid DCT block edges enhancement


So this combination, together with the adaptive filtering (bluring) on action and scene changes, should be a killer

Note: The first line of "asharp" in the script should read: asharp(2,0) and not asharp(1,0).


I fixed that.

I just did a couple of tests using asharp.

Test Basics: (Current Script)

kvcdX3 - MPEG1 CQ=80 Sample Length=1656 Frames (69 seconds)
MinBitrate=300, Max Bitrate=2500, VBV=40, GOP 1-5823-2-1-24

Filesize with asharp(2,0) = 8,653,029
Filesize with asharp(2,2) = 7,236,833 (16.37% smaller)

kvcdX3 - MPEG2 CQ=80 Sample Length=1656 Frames (69 seconds)
MinBitrate=600, Max Bitrate=6000, VBV=224, GOP 1-5823-2-1-18

Filesize with asharp(2,0) = 19,076,155
Filesize with asharp(2,2) = 15,308,597 (19.75% smaller)

I don't see much difference in quality (but I don't have the best eyes. )
I think that adaptive shapening is the way to go with asharp.

Here's a small ( ~1MB ) sample with the new script

I did turn on adaptive shapening as asharp(2,4). The script was just updated with that. Also the small sample I just posted, was done that way

Latest correction: I was passing bluring variables as INT instead of FLOAT
The scaling on blurring was incorrect, as it was in harder steps ( -1, -2, -3, etc. ).
Fixed. It's now floating point values ( -1.12, -2.142, etc. )

hey Kwag,

i don't test the "very new" yet, i see it only now.
the last script before your corrections
give some staircases like in lanczos, did you see some like this?
i see it in detail in 352x240.
with more "resize" this thin lines with staircases are hard to see.

can i encode a movie using 720x480 in one cdr80 or
cdr90 with audio in 160k and got good result
i'm asking cos never did with more than 480x480.
i did only samples in pc and the results are incredibles.
i never see this resolution in the tv.

ps:
i got a new player phillips and he play all kvcds.
i did a big search to find what was the best.
2 weeks testing with tons of kvcds in the shops,
i post it in the portuguese forum.
the important now isn't the dvd player.
the best is the kvcd player


@racer,
i'm with you!
asharp(2,2) ... (2,4) give more sharp and less size!
i think that (2,2) is a "gently" sharpness.

Try it
The "Red Planet" samples I posted were all 704x480 with a CQ for one 80 minute CD
Audio at 112Kbps.

God I was testing the whole night, and now everything has changed again...
well as for noise reduction and sharpness, I found that this line would best replace Unfilter(50,50) :

Code:
Unfilter(10,10) 
asharp(1.25,4,1,hqbf=true)
you might still wanna test it...

Hi Jellygoose,

Did you see the latest one: asharp(2, 4, 0.25, hqbf=true)
Have you tested that one
It seems that asharp is way faster than unfilter

I didn't have any luck with squeezing "A Knight's Tale" onto one CDR . When I made the prediction I got a CQ value 25-30(!) for one CDR, and I guess that won't be very exciting to look at... If a movie contains a lot of fast action scenes will it be easier to fit on a single disc?
