Is this still the case after the mods (smodes changed, didn't they ?) ?

Also, does that mean smode=5 is (was?) mid strength but the slowest and highest quality ? I'd thought smode=5 was now a modded smode=4 for v1.3.

Also, is the same plugin set required or are there additional/newer plugins etc required ? A quick peruse of post #1 and didn't readily spot it.

Smode != Smethod... Be careful

I have added filters required into the first post and into the script...

Hi LaTo,

thanks for this superb modification of LSF!

May i make a few requests?

Presets for realtime DVD playback would nice. I have something like that in mind:
Code:
LSFmod(DVD=true, AR=2.35:1 displaysize=720)
So it automatically crops off 1/6 from the top and the bottom, sets the resolution to 1280:544 and sharpens it.
Equivalent settings for 16:9 and 4:3 content.

Also MoComped sharpening/soothing would be nice for those who don't mind a little bit slower encoding, but want to save a few bits.

Regards and thanks in advance

I doubt he is going to implement such a request as a) every dvd is different and every person watching a dvd is different. Just save your favorite settings to a script and import it when ever you want. b) If you want mocomp, look at mctemporaldenoisePP.

There are basically 3 kinds of DVDs: 4:3, 16:9, 21:9, not that much. Of course they differ in height or width for about 3.8 lines, but who cares...
Maybe an additional preset, with detail enhancement (higher overshoot2 and perhaps something else) and the thing would be fine. Of course you can still tweak every value according to your needs.

I had that idea too, BUT it hasn't all the parameters i need - of course i could fiddle in the missing ones, but if i would do that, i could also try to modify LSFmod, the work to do would be the same.
Also if you want to resize, you have to supersize, do a motion search on a 2400x1360 clip for a full hd vid, sharpen with ss_x=1, profit from the MC'ed soothe, and then resize to for example to 720p or whatever. Or have i gotten it wrong?!

Regards
McCauley

I think the point Merlin was trying to get across was that there's no point in doing presets. It's -extremely- trivial to set up LSF for use with a DVD with an AR of 4:3, 16:9, or 2.35:1 as is.

4:3 - LSF(width=720,height=540)
16:9 - LSF(width=848,height=480)
2.35:1 - LSF(width=848,height=352)

Not hard at all. And as Merlin said, if you want a specific preset, just write it out as a custom line or function:

Code:
# DVD Preset
# LimitedSharpenFaster(...) 
# Blu-ray Preset
# LimitedSharpenFaster(...)
# All others
# LimitedSharpenFaster()
Adding in presets just complicates things and discourages the user from playing around with the settings to find the best result they like.

Sorry, I will not implement this... (for the reasons given by Merlin7777 & Sagekilla)

It was already on my todo list, but I haven't time right now (study... )

Lato,

I find this a very useful script, but unlike you other scripts I can not compare my efforts with the show true or false option. What is the chance of maybe adding that? I do like seeing the original and the filtered side by side. Just something to think about. If I were smart enough I would do it myself.

Thanks, K

A very, very easy way to do that would be (AvsP + VDM optional, both make it infinitely easier):

Code:
a = last
b = a.LSFMod()

Interleave(a,b)

Sagekilla,

If I interleave them doesnt that defeat the purpose of seeing the original input and the filtered output in seperate panes? That was the beauty of the other show commands from other Lato scripts. I tried to play around with it a bit and the little script I worked on would show both input and output, but they were not in synch. In other words the input played much closer to real time than the output. I wanted to see the same frames and the same time as in MCTemporalDenoise show option. I keep playing with it. I get an input and output view with VD (as you know), but I run scripts with avisynth and the input is filtered already for the output to change I need to filter the avs file with a vd filter. So it really does my no good. I like to open the avs files in media player and then I can see the unfiltered input and filtered output. I can see what I actually changed.

lastly since you a x264aholic I would be interest in perhaps you sharing the settings you use for your products when you use MCTemporaldenoise.

Thanks

Yes, It's on my todo list for v1.4.
But when? Maybe in 1 week, 1 month... I don't know

@rkalwaitis: The idea of interleaving the original frame and the processed frame is that you could flip back and forth in a program like AvsP or VirtualDub(Mod) and see exactly what the filter did.

Also, the x264 is a bit off topic, check your pms

If you want to do side-by-side comparison it's very easy. AvsP is my weapon of choice!

Code:
a=last
lsfmod()
stackhorizontal(a,last)
volia
