So who's the cool kid on the block these days in terms of a good set of denoising filters? I've got an .mpg source that looks mostly fine, but I do have a bunch of mosquito noise in a bunch of darker scenes... I've tried running through the various options in the video and audio tutorial on the org, but I'm getting the sense that that resource is somewhat out of date...
...what do you folks use as your go-to for smoothing or denoising?
I've tried the following (I'm not very good with avisynth, so I mostly copy-paste
):super = MSuper(pel=2, sharp=1)
backward_vec2 = MAnalyse(super, isb = true, delta = 2, overlap=4)
backward_vec1 = MAnalyse(super, isb = true, delta = 1, overlap=4)
forward_vec1 = MAnalyse(super, isb = false, delta = 1, overlap=4)
forward_vec2 = MAnalyse(super, isb = false, delta = 2, overlap=4)
MDegrain2(super, backward_vec1,forward_vec1,backward_vec2,forward_vec2,thSAD=400)
The above just gives me fairly ugly banding and halos. It's worse than the original.
RemoveGrain(mode=8)
TTempSmooth()
LSFmod()
This doesn't make much of a difference.
TemporalDegrain()
Takes forever, and I get all sorts of other weird artifacts (fade outs don't work properly anymore, etc...)
Any advice would be super appreciated!
