Remove duplicates

[varunb]

I downloaded the recently released trailer 3 of the Dark Knight from yahoo(Quicktime trailer 720p). On playing it in virtualdub, I could clearly makeout uneven duplicate patterns in it even though the frame rate of the video is 23.976. I tried to remove the duplicates using Multidecimate but the frame rate of the output is turning out to be 0.18(used both Remove Duplicates: Global Naive & Remove Duplicates: Global: Protect Static Scenes) alongwith audio desync. Even fdecimate failed as it didn't remove even a single duplicate. Suggestion then ?

Post a link to the clip you downloaded so that we may try it.

You can try DeDup filter. Don't forget to remux the output file to either avi/mkv/mp4 with generated timecode_v2 file.

Dead link.

Its not dead neuron2. I have checked it in Firefox as well as Quicktime Player & its working fine.

I will give it a shot, roozhou.

While it's being downloaded (100MB), I looked into the very beginning (300 frames) of the file in AVSP with:

LoadPlugin("...\TIVTC.dll")
DirectShowSource("E:\temp\1\63547308.mov", fps=23.976, audio=false)
ConvertToYUY2()
Trim(146,294)
TDecimate(mode=2, rate=15)# smaller rate values still left repeated frames

You have 23.976 with almost half of frames repeated. First impression is that too many original frames dropped, looks like someone took a 59.94 fps 720p footage with correctly repeated frames and sent it directly to an encoder with 23.976 setting. If you remove the dupes it will remain jerky due to randomly dropped motion phases.
