There shouldn't be ANY YV12 - > RGB conversion going on. I work on my clips in Vdub, so unless its auto color mode detection is borked up and doesn't work, what I am getting -should- be YV12 ? Or is it gonna be RGB at viewing stage regardless, just by nature of PC displays?

My encoding path is off the DVD to a HuffYV12 (ffdshow) file. Not sure if that would have any impact on it though. I will say doing a color conversion to RGB seems to clean it up rather nicely all by itself. So I'm not sure why even at the viewing stage, an RGB conversion would look so horrible.

That being said. I appreciate your efforts. I'm not sure if I have tried Gradfun2db MOD, but I bet I at least played around with the original.. Your GF2DBMod image looks very nice for certain. I may have to install Set's 2.5.8 MT x32 version of Avisynth I guess so I can at least experiment at reasonable speeds.

Would anything during the DGindex process affect this too? i.e there is PC / TV modes for clamping some color stuff IIRC. I don't recall which I used but probably default to PC..
