Well, this is my script...

# PLUGINS
LoadPlugin("d:\filtros\TemporalCleaner.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\FILTROS\DECOMB.DLL")
LoadPlugin("d:\filtros\edeen.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\FILTROS\MaskTools142.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\FILTROS\WarpSharp.dll")
LoadPlugin("D:\FILTROS\aWarpSharp.dll")
Import("D:\FILTROS\mfToon-v0.52.avs")
#
# VIDEO SOURCE
Video=Avisource("d:\captura (2004-04-13 at 11-13-20).avi").ConvertToYV12()
#
Video=Trim(video,5256,41085)
#
# IVTC
Video=Telecide(Video,post=true,chroma=true,gthresh=50,guide=1)
Video=Telecide(Video,guide=1)
Video=Decimate(Video,cycle=5)
#
# DEINTERLACING
Video=FieldDeinterlace(Video,blend=false)
#
# EDEEN (HEAVY)
Video=edeen(video,7,14,21,2,3,false)
#
# TEMPORAL CLEANER
Video=TemporalCleaner(video,ythresh=7,cthresh=15)
#
# MFTOON
Video=mfToonLite(video)
#
# CROPPING
Video=Crop(Video,0,4,720,476)
#
# RESIZING
Video=BicubicResize(Video,480,360,0,0.5)
#
# LIMIT Chroma & Luma Value
Video=Limiter(Video)
#
# FINISH
Return(Video)

No matter what, I always get a terrible shimmering around the edges of the picture. So, my question is: Anyone, PLEASE, know what I could do to reduce it ?

Thanks!

1) Update all your programs/filters being used in this process. Especially decomb (now up to 5.1.1).

2) The shimmering is most likely being caused by telecide.

3) This section is redundant:

Video=Telecide(Video,post=true,chroma=true,gthresh=50,guide=1)
Video=Telecide(Video,guide=1)

Telecide isn't going to find anything further on a 2nd pass.

4) You either run telecide or you run fielddeinterlace, you don't run both together (and you can't run both together unless an older version of decomb allowed it).
