KVCD: jerks in movement in some film frames?
 

I using avisynth 2.52 and SKVCD reset to 480x480 interlaced for a 16x9 movie tv capture. CQ is 57. Everything looks great except for some jerks in movement in some film frames. What else can I try? I've already tried telecide() and decimate(), but results were much worse. The jerks are not throughout the film, only in some frames.

I want to capture "Taken" tonight and am trying to get something that works well. I'm capturing at 720x480 with no frame loss.

LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\MPEG2DEC3.dll")
LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\decomb.dll")
LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\deen.dll")
LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\gripfit_yv12.dll")
LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\unfilter_2.5\unfilter.dl l")
LoadPlugin("c:\video\dlls\stmed_2.5a\STMedianFilte r.dll")

aviSource("h:\blazingsaddles.avi")
ConvertToYV12()

Limiter()
unfilter(50,50)
GripCrop(480, 480, overscan=2, source_anamorphic=false, dest_anamorphic=true)
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize")
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0)
Deen()
mergechroma(blur(1.50))
mergeluma(blur(0.2))
GripBorders()
LetterBox(16, 16, 16, 16)
Limiter()

First of all, if your capture is interlaced, use ConverttoYV12(interlaced=true).

Secondly, download Decomb v5.0 and see the documentation supplied in the package. There's an excellent tutorial on how to figure out proper settings for Telecide.

Hi nicksteel,

You've probably answered this before, but I don't remember.
What capture device are you using :?:

Virtualvcr with wintvgo90.

Thanks :)

I'm pretty certain the capture is interlaced. I downloaded the Decomb v5.0 and will spend some time with the tutorial.

I can set virtualvcr to YV12. Is this preferable to YUY2 and the ConverttoYV12 statement in avs file.

Also, do you know if I should be using any filters or anything for audio within virtualvcr. I'm now running with none.

Use YV12 if your capture codec supports it. BTW, what codec do you use?

I don't recommend using any filters when capturing, they are really of no use.

I use Picvideo MJPEG set at 19 with a 160GB ultra drive.

Sorry, you can't use YV12 with that codec. It supports YUY2 but not YV12.
