Help With Scripting (Pics Included)

TwilightChrono · Post by **TwilightChrono** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 4:10 am

The name of the anime is El Hazard-and these are scenes from my AMV. Which would have already been out if not for these stupid scripting problems I have been having. If anyone could help out or give some advice on what Scripts I should use, I don't know if you can tell yet or not, but the format that these stills were taken is:

Original MPEG 2

This footage looks interlaced while I use it. I don't know if Original MPEG 2 does that or not, but still, I require assistance with scripting help if anyone could give any. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks For your time.

Here are the pics:

I gave several pics, so as to help anyone who can give help give an accurate diagnosis of what is wrong. Nothing has been done scripting wise or quality wise to the video yet. This is what it looked like directly after rip. Thanks for any and all help I receive.

post your current script?

Sure Thing. Here it is:

FastLineDarken(strength=96,thinning=0)
SDDeRainbow()
deen("w3d",4,12,24,16)
mftoon(strength=5)
tweak(sat=1.6)
ConvertToYV12()

I'm still trying to get a grasp on AVISynth. So, don't flame me if this is the absolute worst script in the history of scripting.

I think that you really don't need to do anything besides deinterlacing and removing the noise... can you post a pic of how it looks like after your script?

Yeah, it looks over filtered?

The lines in those pictures already look pretty clear, I doubt you need much sharpening or darking. From those pics I also couldn't see any rainbowing, though that could be elsewhere. The only real problem I see there is all that heavy nosie.

What would you recommend I use to get rid of the noise, and make the picture much clearer and sharper?

that looks like something that removegrain() would work well on.
For sharpening, limitedsharpenfaster() (or limitedsharpen()) should do ya good

So, that should be about it then? Or is there something more that I should do to it?

Sorry for all the questions. I am tired of my AMV's looking over-filtered or not quite filtered enough.

Well, since I'm not sure you have it in your script, I say put a tomsmocomp(1,5,1) to deinterlace. Or perhaps IVTC it, whatever you prefer. Just remember to get rid of the interlacing.
