Thanks for the update!
Could you make for next version limiter=2 be an active parameter? Sometimes I like to add smoothlevels(limiter=2) at the end of my script to save bits for encoding. Also could you allow ecenter for lmode 2 and 3? So we can choose what darks or what brights we want to bring back? Also when using show=true in 16 bit version it could possibly be a good idea to stack a black clip below with same height, so we don't need to comment out ditherpost to see the full screen

Hm, while we're at it, if I use SmoothLevels(preset="pc2tv") does it convert full range input (luma and chroma both 0-255) to 16-240 for chroma and luma to 16-235? Last edited by TheSkiller; 13th October 2011 at 17:31. |

Thanks TheSkiller, nice to know that, although at the same time Im wondering if x264 trash out of TVrange values when encoding in this range, or is only a display flag.
About SmoothLevels(preset="pc2tv"), yes it converts both, you can turn chroma=0 so only luma is processed. My concern is when TVrange is slightly off and I want to fine tune it. So I switched to manual mode but: SmoothLevels(preset="tv2pc") has a different chroma than: SmoothLevels16(16,1.0,235,0,255) edit: no problem : ) tv2pc uses chroma=84 as default

Like that you can tune Ecenter. Hum, I don't know... This will add problem for people who doesn't use ditherpost. |

-Yes, I didn't know of Limiter() existence I will use that.
-Yes I compared Lmode 3 with Lmode 1 tweaking ecenter and brightstr and darkstr. But still lmode 3 prevents more brightening on brights than using lmode 1 brightstr=0 and ecenter at 20 for example (which is a very extreme value), check yourself please.. At the moment there is no possiblity to limit dark brightening further down to the darks (same with brights). -People who don't use ditherpost won't likely use smoothXX16() These are open suggestions based on daily use so you can improve the plugin

Lmode=2 is the same as: "Lmode=1,BrightSTR=0,Ecenter=255" Lmode=3 is the same as: "Lmode=1,DarkSTR=0,Ecenter=0" |

ah well, that makes sense. So the darkest darks that can be brightened are indeed lmode=3, which equals to ecenter=0 in lmode=1. That means that with lmode=1 from ecenter=0 you can only go "worse", in terms of you can only go up brightening more towards brights, and not the opposite, limiting more the darks, which was my original intention. Not too worried about it, I don't need it in any specific situation, just wondering and suggesting.

Something like BrightSTR=200 (...)? It looks like it works (limits the brights further). I always had the notion it was a 0-100 parameter.
I was a bit confused because in the debug screen using lmode=3 for example, has different darkstr and ecenter than using its lmode=1 counterpart, although the result is the same. If lmode 2 and 3 are indeed lmode 1 shortcuts, wouldn't make more sense to unify the debug outputs? so probably it is easier to read and understand. Unless lmode 2 and 3 do things lmode 1 can't, that is... The name is also confusing dark strength instead of dark limiting or something, I always need to look twice to make sure what I am doing. yikes

Update 2011/11/06

Finally, here is the final version 2.00 after more than six months of development. It only contains minors fixes and documentation update since the prerelease. With version 2.00 the plugin has made a lot of quality, speed and functionality improvement. It has been a lot of work and I hope this plugin will be useful to many people. Now I will try to focus a bit on my avisynth scripts to update them a little. Then I will spend my time on other ideas for new filters. So SmoothAdjust will be put a little aside but I still have some ideas of improvements, no worry. Also my main PC has died from surges, but fortunately the hard drives and data are intact. I work now with an old mono-core CPU. This issue gave me the idea to set up possibility to make donations, all the necessary informations are in the zip archive. If you often use this plugin and you like it, please feel free to consider donating. It's really fast, easy and secure. This will help me a lot to find time to continue updating and creating plugins during my free time. In fact after my job change, I now have much less free time, that's why the latest versions of development have been so slow to come out. The zip archive is in the first post of this thread. Please feel free to give me your comments and ideas for further development. Happy Version 2.00 edit: @Dogway: this version will output stacked MSB/LSB clip with show=true in 16 bits filters Last edited by LaTo; 6th November 2011 at 22:02. |

Thanks for that and the final version.
Maybe for future versions you might want to have a look at saturation and probably add Vibrance as in a recent thread to round it up, not that I need it, I already wrapped a vibrance function with lsb support. For "new" filters what it'd be very very cool if you could have a look at stabilise, its a wonder plugin but very old and under-developed. Despite it could not fill your motivation, but asking just in case hehe Last edited by Dogway; 7th November 2011 at 00:01. |

If I understand correctly tools like After Effects map an 8bit source into 32bit, centering 8bit level 0 at 0.5000 in the 0.0000 - 1.0000 range. is this possible with SmoothAdjust?
**EDIT** Sorry to clarify this was for the 16bit stacked functions Last edited by Yellow_; 4th July 2012 at 14:42. |
