Everytime i record something from the Satellite i have this kind of noise:

this is taken from the credits but it's visible along the entire movie:

how can i correct this?
My script now is:
mpeg2source("D:\Weather1\VIDEO_TS\The Weather Man.d2v",idct=0)
Crop(8, 80, -24, -80)
ColorMatrix()
TomsMoComp(1,5,1)
RemoveGrain(mode=2)

It's known as "rainbowing", and fft3dfilter(plane=3) with high sigma values is one of the most effective ways of dealing with it. If you search on the term, you'll find others, as well.

If the credits are just white text on black, an effective method to clean it up would be to use ApplyRange or Trim with Greyscale().
Then use a derainbow filter on the rest of the movie.

Since no one has touched on the capture end, you should be using S-Video connections if possible to remove/reduce these artifacts. Of course if they're present in the satellite source that won't help...

At the moment the connection is a simple Scart connection because the sat decoder doesn't have any other connection to output to the dvd recorder.
I 'm running Vista,i tried fft3dfilter but with plane values higher than 2 i get the error "FFTW3 plan error";
i tried also BiFrost(interlaced=false) and the function DeRainbow but none of them was of help neither with the credits neither with the movie....:confused:

If you have a decent graphics card, you might want to try FFT3DGPU instead of FFT3DFilter.

Not so decent sadly...it's a GeForce 7300GS 128MB TurboCache

BiFrost is most effective if you use SSIQ in combination with it. It is slow, but will work on most sources.
Bifrost(scenelumathresh=2,altclip=SSIQ(11,300,false),interlaced=false)

This is my script now:
mpeg2source("D:\Weather1\VIDEO_TS\The Weather Man.d2v",idct=0)
Crop(8, 80, -24, -80)
ColorMatrix()
TomsMoComp(1,5,1)
#RemoveGrain(mode=2)
Bifrost(scenelumathresh=1,altclip=SSIQ(11,300,false),interlaced=false)
this is the result:

What fftw3.dll version did you use when it bombed?
