In Trouble with the Deen

Anyway, that's the best I've gotten it for right now. If anyone has any more suggestions let me know.

Rather than mfrainbow, try DFMDeRainbow and/or LUTDeRainbow. I was able to kill like 99% of the [horrendous] rainbowing in the original AnimeEigo release of Oh My Goddess! by hitting it with that combo.

I think it's a little high on the tweak brightness.
are there splotches on the middle finger? *squints*
try mftoon at half strength (128) less overkill that way.
I does look better.

Thanks for the advice, Qyot. I think I'm done playing with it for today. Here's the script that looks the best IMO:

Code: Select all

Import ("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\DFMDeRainbow.avsi")
Import ("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\mfToon-v0.52a.avsi")
Import ("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\fastlinedarken.avsi")
MPEG2Source ("C:\Project Folder\SFIIVTest\SFIIVTest.d2v")
AudioDub (WavSource ("C:\Project Folder\SFIIVTest\SFIIVTest T01 2_0ch 192Kbps 48KHz.wav"))
Telecide(order=1,guide=1) 
Decimate(cycle=5, mode=2)
Deen ("w3d",4) 
DFMDeRainbow()
MfToon()
fastlinedarken()
Tweak (hue=4.0,sat=1.2, bright=20, cont=1.12)
Crop (8,6,-8,-6)
LanczosResize (640,480)

Oh and sorry Autraya you must have posted at the same time I was typing my reply. I'll keep that in mind with Mftoon. As far as the splotches go, I've concluded that was MSmooth doing that. I know I've already complained about splotches using Deen, but in this case it seemed to do the better job.

As far as tweak goes, the anime in general does need a good amount of brightness. It's really dark in some scenes and its hard to tell what's going on. So far, I haven't found a scene where it was too bright on this setting.

And since I can't copyright AVS scripts, I guess you're free to steal.
