Help me with my Cleaning Script (Neon Genesis Evangelion)

Post by rook2pawn » Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:33 pm

I am getting green borders on the edges.. Also i tried my best but I am not entirely sure if the stacking order of my
filters is right. I could not find any tutorials about how to stack these, so i just did what "seemed right" with Deen in the middle,
BlindPP in the start (do i even need BlindPP here?) and awarpsharp at the end, and temporalCleaner at the very last to make sure
the colors wouldnt fluctuate too badly.
I am not sure where anything really is supposed to go, at least the reasons
Thank you again for your help !

AviSource("eva_disc4_fight2.avi")
BlindPP(quant=2,cpu=4,moderate_h=20,moderate_v=40)
undot()
RemoveGrain(mode=2)
VagueDenoiser()
Deen("a2d",2)
colourizesmooth()
unfilter(10,10)
msmooth(strength=2,threshold=3)
Awarpsharp()
TemporalCleaner()
ConvertToYUY2()

I understand that NGE (non-Renewal/Platinum) is a pretty crappy source, but still, that is WAY too many smoothing filters. You're going to destroy all the textures that way -- just look at what you did to that poor hill in the background.

As far as the green edges go, that's caused by a bug in aWarpSharp. However, they're happening entirely in the black borders, so you can just crop them out (at the end of your script) without losing anything.

Also, why are you converting to YUY2 at the end?

Also, to answer one of your questions: BlindPP is a deblocking/deringing specialist. You probably don't need it if you don't see a lot of macroblocks in the footage, and you definitely don't need it if you called MPEG2Source with postprocessing on (cpu = anything other than 0) when you were working with the VOBs in the first place.

That is a DVD source, just a crappy one.
Insert clever text/image here.
