kvcd: the optimal order of the filters in the script?

Hi! I'm using the following script for DivX movies, with great results.
But I'm not quite sure of the optimal order of the filters in the script.
So if anyone could help me out here, I would be very thankful. :)

Code:

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\MPEG2Dec3.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\STMedianFilter.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\asharp.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\unfilter.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\undot.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\DCTFilter.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\TemporalCleaner.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\VSFilter.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.5\LoadPluginEX.dll")

LoadPlugin("C:\DVD\Filters\2.0\DustV5.dll")



AviSource("Movie.avi")

KillAudio()



BlindPP()

undot()

unfilter(50,50)

asharp(1,4)

BicubicResize(480,272,0,0.6,0,0,640,272)

STMedianFilter(8,32,0,0)

ConvertToYUY2()

SpaceDust()

ConvertToYV12()

TemporalCleaner(round(6), round(11))

AddBorders(0,104,0,104)

TextSub("Movie.srt")

DctFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,.5,0)

LetterBox(0,0,16,16)

Doing mutilple "convertTo" isn't a good idea. If you want to use SpaceDust its better to do like this :

Code:

AviSource("Movie.avi",false)  :arrow: equivalent to "killaudio"

BlindPP()

undot()

unfilter(50,50)

# asharp(1,4) :arrow: useless, you already have unfilter that sharpens !

BicubicResize(480,272,0,0.6,0,0,640,272)

STMedianFilter(8,32,0,0)

TemporalCleaner(6, 11)

DctFilter(1,1,1,1,1,1,.5,0)

ConvertToYUY2()

SpaceDust()

AddBorders(0,104,0,104)

TextSub("Movie.srt")

LetterBox(0,0,16,16)

Note: put all your dll in the "plugins" directory of avs2.52 and remove all thes ugly "loadplugin" lines :idea:

Note2: look at the sticky post I did today with optimal scripts. They will give very good results and more quicly than the one you use.

Ok, thanks! Will try your suggestions and take a look at the optimal scripts.
