ok, i don’t use avisynthe, i have never gotten there before, it seems to me that it works by command prompt right? I just saw that since then, for virtual dub there have been filters of the same kind, for deinterlacing, when there is an export in png, we can cut it and resume later or was it?
liam.angel were you using AVISource or something else? I don’t have much confidence in some other playback methods in AviSynth. I would maybe convert it to UTVideo in VDub and then deinterlace with AVISource.
what is avisource??
AviSource is a plugin for AviSynth. It’s a way of opening an AVI, WAV or VDR file, taking care of compression and so on, so that AviSynth can process the frames.
Hi daniel.parks, my remark is in danger of taking ssbroly’s thread off track, so I’ll end here. I was using FFmpegSource2 (the source is mkv). It’s a DVD scan from a poorly maintained film master that I’ve been trying to clean up a bit. I’m happy with my results using Topaz first, then RemoveDirt, but I’m going to experiment a bit along the lines you suggest just to see whether QTGMC is really the guilty party (so thanks for the suggestion). I hadn’t considered whether FFmpegSource2 might be an issue.
ssbroly AviSynth uses script files which can be created using a text editor. I apologize as I don’t understand the second part of your question and I also don’t have any experience yet with saving image sequences from VEAI - only mp4’s.
to put it simply, the deinterlacing works well, but there is some flickering on the video which cannot be removed, I have tried everything, I hope that it is in relation to the chroma that topaz plan to rectify. So I have to make sure to import my video at 50 fps instead of 25i and suddenly the software outputs a video at 100 fps so with twice too much image, hence the importance of exporting it in picture png, then select only half. this manipulation avoids having this flickering. by doing this method, every second image is still shifted by one line which causes a very slight shake which can be corrected with a slight stabilization.
Maybe you could try first using Yadif deinterlacing in VirtualDub (with double-framerate deinterlacing, so 25i to 50p) then open it in Topaz. Apparently that won’t give you quite as good a result as using AviSynth with QTGMC but it should be a lot easier. But make sure not to deinterlace in Topaz also.
no … nothing deinterlaces as well as with vegas pro and the gpu … apart from video enhance, it is he who deinterlaces the best if there were no sparkles … yadis, bob, eula etc, it is ugly on my videos
I’m relatively new to this, and a bit reluctant to reply, but the problem could be in your settings. Near the top there is a box in which you select either: top first or bottom first. If you are getting the backward situation as you mentioned changing that setting might help. It did for me.
no, it’s not because of the upper weft and the lower weft, it’s more complicated than that. it is the slightest tremors, which still hurt the eyes.
Does this help?
for me it is currently the only way to get the best results from interlaced sources, since all de-interlacing methods of VEAI do create flicker effects in a lot of horizontal movement scenes. Also i did not want to change Dione Interlaced, but have an additional profile i can work with. I also did not only change the interlacing parameter but also removed everything related to this in the json file.
But you need to have a good de-interlacing software, so i used ffmpeg for this and created a script to de-interlace files and also all files in a folder at once.
I didn’t understand, I modified the json file, I set interlaced-frame to 0, and I changed the noise parameter (it’s a good thing to be able to do this, I find that dione tv denoised a little too much). but that doesn’t change the quality, or you have to import an already deinterlaced sequence with the “interlaced-frame” parameter set to 0?
Yes, if you set the interlaced parameter to 0 the source video must already been deinterlaced. I did this with ffmeg resulting in a doubled-frame sequence (in my case from 50i to 50p).
ah ok, i had already deinterlaced it with vegas pro, it was the best in my case, there is no comb or stair effect, but on the other hand some artefacts in places or edges that tremble a little. there’s no denying it, ai video enhance deinterlaces better than anything else though.
hola! well I just understood that to remove the artifacts from the video, you have to use dione dv, or tv with a lot of grain all the same (4 - 0.5)
once done, with vegas pro, and neatvideo, I keep almost all the details without artefacts, but … dione dv, and dione tv remove a few details … how can we modify the program files so that it denois a little less?
we can see it a little here, the girl’s hair.
i mainly use the Dione methods for upscaling SD to HD or HD to 4K. The best de-interlacing method i found is using bwdif and ffmpeg, which gives me much better results than build-in Dione De-interlacer. I also use Dione TV v1 manipulated for Progressive source files for my old TV series, because TV v2 produces halo effect, although did not try v3 yet.
Nevertheless, for the denoise you can probably try to change the parameter “noiseLevel” in the json file. I don’t know what this does, but it could change the way noise is handled by the profile.
I’ll try this deinterlace method after work then! I’m curious to see what he does.
I saw the line “noiselevel” I tried “0”, “0.4”, “1”, “2”, no changes, it’s strange
