Deen()
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
AddBorders(16, 16, 16, 16)

but using this script with GripCrop,
i got wrong aspect radio with big black borders on top and botton


Undot()
Asharp(1,4)
GripCrop(480,480,overscan=2,source_anamorphic=fals e,dest_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="BiCubicResize")

Always preview your movie, and if the results are wrong with GripFit, use AviSynth's resize
If you want to be 100% correct every time, then use AviSynth's resize

using GripCrop is anamorphic and give big black borders in the top and botton.

it's a bug, problem or "don't know what"?

Other thing : if you want to use bicubic precise (b=.6, c=0) as you in your example, you must use avisynth resizing. Gripcrop always uses bicubic standard (b=c=1/3).

i got the same problem with the dvd2svcd script!

i did another sample with bicubic standard too:

Undot()
Asharp(1,4)
BicubicResize(448, 448, 1/3, 1/3, 0, 0, 720, 480)
Deen()
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
AddBorders(16, 16, 16, 16)

the result is ok,the same like bicubic precision!
any recomendations Phil

Lol. I'd edited my post (but too late ).

No they are not. Bicubic precise is a lot sharper than normal. You can see that with the file length of a sample using same CQ for both : the one with bicubic precise will be bigger.

Note: Lanczos is often compared to a bicubic with b=0.75 or even b=1 !

too late...lol!

oh,ok,ok...but
differents things and problems:

using (any) bicubic the aspect radio is perfect,
using GripCrop the aspect radio is wrong with black borders,
with lanczos the aspect radio is perfect but give
"strange artefacts in the edges"...
the edges seems "moving ants" with extreme bright.


more recomendations and hints please Phil!

That's exactly why I always use Bicubic Precise

Taken alone, that's true, Lanczos does too much sharpening.

But the problem is not the same with other filters. Light blur + Lanzos (my Divx script for instance) is in my eye a lot better than asharp + bicubic (MA script).

A resizer sharpen only the edges. Asharp sharpens everything, included possible remaining noise. That's a part of the difference.

In fact I have to say that I never use any sharpening filter

let me test your idea Phil.
<EDITED>
i did using:

Undot()
LanczosResize(448,448,0,0,720,480)
Deen()
DCTFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,0.5,0)
AddBorders(16, 16, 16, 16)

and compare the quality with the others scripts:

with lanczos without asharp is really good too but
i see just a (little) few more details with bicubic/asharp...
seems more "dimentional" too...can't explain better.
deserve more tests cos i did with Peter Pan (Disney),
like all samples with scripts used in this tests.

A classic cartoon is not the perfect choice for a sample. I do all mine with a short (5 minutes) making-off of Star Trek Insurrection : explosion, battle action, computer generated scenes... That's a really good test sample

thanks Phil,
i will test now with "real" movies from dvds, not cartoons!

and like i wrote, the differences are tiny(really tiny),
Lanczos without "sharpens" is very good
and give short final size too
