any plugin for ghosting?

I was wondering if the is a way to get rid of this artefacts (they are more noticeable in motion):

300kB .mkv sample 1



5MB .mkv sample2

On the Avisynth wiki I've found 'Ghostbuster' which is too old and doesn't work anymore, so I tried the equivalent "Exorcist" VirtualDub filter which I found to be more damage than restore.

I had to use unblend() once, and it was quite effective. But the source was anime.

1) That's a great quality loss.
2) It may not solve the problem at all if there's progressive blending or other filters artifacts.

I don't know. Only had that problem once on anime, and Unblend solved it completely. But the main rule of video filtering is "There's no universal solution".

"Ghosting" could refer to 2 seperate things - as I understand it, maybe someone else knows better, but it could be either motion afterimages of bright objects in previous frames, caused by blended fields or a side effect of too strong temporal noise filtering. Or it could be repeated fringes to the left or right dues to analogue refelections or interference.

The "streaking" in the first image looks like an analogue artefact, similar to what I get with my cheap TV when there's a picture showing a window with venetian blinds! Unfortunately I don't know what it is that causes this kind of effect, or what you can do about it.

LGhost:

Description

* Plug-ins for the removal of ghost Avisynth
* YUY2 mode and mode YV12
* Brightness only see only brightness changes
* Ghost and the removal of ghost edge brightness (ringing) can be removed

The link you gave for warpsharp doesn't talk about ghost removal, it talks about color conversion.

Hi:

I've extracted help from zip, deleted japanese chars and added commentaries (bold text):

Quote:
LGhost.dll v0.3.01 Copyright(C) 2002, 2003 minamina

Avisynth Plugin - Ghost Reduction (YUY2 and YV12 Only, Luminance Ghost Only)

Colorspaces:

Avisynth
YUY2
YV12

Dll suitable for each avisynth's version:

LGhost1.dll : Avisynth 1.0, 2.0
LGhost.dll : Avisynth 2.5

Loading:
LoadPlugin("LGhost.dll")

Sintax:

LGhost(clip, mode0, shift0, intensity0, ... , mode17, shift17, intensity17)

Parameters:

mode 0 : (default), 1 : 2 : 3 : 4 :
shift (-clip.width ‚clip.width, default 0)
intensity (-128 ‚ 127, default 0)

Examples:

LGhost(mode0 = 1, shift0 = 3, intensity0 = -15)
LGhost(2, 4, 20, 2, 7, 10, 1, -4, -15, 1, -7, -5)


I think only obscure parm is mode but trial and error can do miracles.

Anyway, a few is more than nothing.

Good luck

RT_PluginParam() should extract CPP type argument list.
RT_Stats here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=165479

From Docs
Code:
RT_PluginParam(String FunctionName)
 FunctionName, String, name of Avisynth built-in or Plugin filter or function name.
 Returns "", if FunctionName Parameter string not found.
 Returns String, the Avisynth CPP Interface style argument specifier string used by Avisynth to determine argument types and optional names.
  Optional arguments have square brackets surrounding their name as in [name] and are followed by a type specifier character that gives
  the type. Unnamed arguments are not optional. eg "cc[arg1]b[arg2]i" would be two compulsory unnamed clip args, followed by optional
  'arg1' of type bool and optional 'arg2' of type int.
    # Argument type specifier strings.
      c - Video Clip
      i - Integer number
      f - Float number
      s - String
      b - boolean
      . - Any type (dot)
    # Array Specifiers
      i* - Integer Array, zero or more
      i+ - Integer Array, one or more
      .* - Any type Array, zero or more
      .+ - Any type Array, one or more
    #    Etc
   To show params:-
      colorbars().Killaudio()
      S=RT_PluginParam("RT_YStats")
      S=RT_StrReplace(S,"[",Chr(10)+"[")
      RT_Subtitle(s)

use value directly by arrangement and it will work, EX:- http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...99#post1715299

it is the best solution available at this moment

http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Externa...#Ghost_Removal

But unfortunately, it doesn't touch chroma, just luma

hope someone update it since it open source
