Currently, I'm using TemporalSoften(2,5,15) as a general purpose noise removal for both cartoons and live action. Temporalsoften is pretty good for me, but a fair bit of detail is lost. Do people recommend using different noise filters for animation versus live action. Also, I'd assume order would matter when doing a resize. I would think doing a noise filter after a resize would be faster but not as good, but I'm finding it difficult to tell the difference between the two. I'm capturing off television, full frame, there is a fair amount of noise coming from my signal but its not too bad.

I just wanted to get a heads up on peoples different noise removal techniques.
