Valentim Batista's VirtualDub filter ShadowSmoother (http://www.geocities.com/gc_timsara/vdub.html) works great except it's (obviously) RGB.

Leuf's Darksmoother (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=56517) gives better results but is also only for RGB.

Does anyone have a filter or method for smoothing near-blacks in YUY2?

I guess some kind of masking could be used such that only those pixels whose luma is below a certain threshold are processed using a standard spatial smoother. Haven't figured out how to do it, hence, my question.
