I'm extremely impressed with KVCD as I have just finished my first movie for the second time cuz of audio problems the first time but I want to get rid of the "noise" around the outline of characters... now I've asked a question with respect to filters etc in another thread but no one has answered and I'm sure you ppl are all too experienced to ever have a thread of such... but could someone explain to me how to get the picture to be even more perfect as I know I'm only meticulous and the "non-encoders" eye wouldn't be able to pick up on it but I can and I want it to be as close to flawless as possibe

so if someone could inform on how to use filters, if that is my problem, and if not then what settings I can use to perfect these?

thanx again ppl.

Hi dionysus,

Try script like this:


Code:
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\GripFit_preview.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\blockbuster.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\legalclip.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\sampler.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\dustv5.dll") 
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\temporalcleanerold.dll")

Mpeg2Source("K:\S1M0NE_WS\VIDEO_TS\simone.d2v")
LegalClip() 
GripCrop( width=528, height=480, overscan=2 ) 
GripSize() 

SpaceDust()
TemporalCleaner()
Blockbuster(method="noise", variance=.4, seed=1)

GripBorders() 
LegalClip() 

Sampler(length=24)

## MPEG size = ((Total frames/MovieTimeInMinutes)/24) * MPEG sample file size ##
Change the Mpeg2Source line to point to your movie and the GripCrop line to reflect the target resolution you want. Get the filters in the download section on the main page of this site.

-Kwag, you told me to use this script on all my movies

LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\legalclip.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\sampler.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\dustv5.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\encoding\temporalcleanerold.dll")

Mpeg2Source("My_Movie.d2v")

LegalClip()
GripCrop( width=352, height=240, overscan=1 )
GripSize()
SpaceDust()
TemporalCleaner()
GripBorders()
LegalClip()
#Sampler(length=24)
## MPEG size = ((Total frames/MovieTimeInMinutes)/24) * MPEG sample file size ##

Hi Kwag.
Just one question: You are frequently using Blockbuster with Spacedust and TemporalCleaner, can you explain what for ? I'm using Space & Temporal only, allways for KVCD3x on 2 cds. And Faery & C3d for 1 cd. Another thing: what happens when I change the variance on Blockbuster? Sorry, I'm having some difficult to understand the good documentation on Blockbuster .
Thanks

I use the Blockbuster with a very low variance. It helps a lot on the low frequency components of the movies. The default values only apply noise on a frequency "window" which is only on these areas. But don't use to high values, or you'll start seeing noise on dark areas
The highest I go is ~.7

Hi Dionysus,

This is my setup

I have avisynth installed in C:\program files\avisynth2 and when you install it there is a plugins directory created in the avisynth2 dir, if you put all your dll's in the plugins dir you dont need the loadplugin line for them in the avs script ( unless you are using different versions of the same dll etc ).

Have you installed AviSynth? If yes, check under Environmental Settings in TMPGEnc under VFAPI Plugin and see if "ReadAVS.dll" is checked...
I recommend also to check DirectShow Reader and move these two to a higher priority.

yea everything is per-program, like I said I already avisynth before and I just dl'd the filters and then I go to load any sort of file predict or whatever and now it's unsupported... .d2v will all of a sudden just work now so but before it wouldn't, maybe I'm on a timely basis and the .avs will come around?? haha jk.

also, so if I have all those filters in the avisynth folder they should just automatically work?!


thanks alot ppl.

Hi dionysus.
I wouldn´t like to confuse you, but in my configuration to have the filters playing OK I downloaded the dll at the mpeg2dec folder, inside of DVD2SVCD folder. Then at the firsts lines of my script I have:
Loadplugin ("C:\...\...\DVD2SVCD\MPEG2DEC\....dll")
I don't have any problem to increase the number of filters nomore. But listen: my o.s. is W2K PRO SP3 .

holy I feel like a retard... this whole time I was oblivious to the "FitCD" idea of using these scripts etc. hahahaha anyways,

@ kwag

if I basically just erase to current script and just copy and paste the one you gave me with those changes to directories and save that... then throw it in TMPGEnc and that should work??

thanks man, sorry for being a little slow

Yes. I do that too!. I use FitCD to open the file, and get the directory/path to my .d2v. Then I paste that into my .avs template scripts and encode
