Hi!
I'm new here, and I'm looking for someone who could help me giving sugestions about the denoising of some analog video captures that I've recently done.
The problem is that the source is extremely noisy and all the solutions I have tested can't give satisfactory results, and hence the XviD encoding have a lot of blocks.
I usually use PeachSmoother, but I also tried VagueDenoiser, frfun3b, a virtual dub filter called MSU denoiser, and many others.

Here is a sample: http://rapidshare.com/files/2433510/capture.avi.html (8MB)

Do you have any sugestions, or is that too much noise?
Thanks in advance.

That's some terrible noise.:D You should get a better antenna instead of trying to fix the problem with a denoiser. Don't even waste your time - any method will either destroy too much detail, or will be too slow.

Well, that's what I suspected, but thanks anyway for the response!
Unfortunately I have the shows already recorded and I can't capture them again.
If you have to choose some denoiser to make this capture least bad and compress it with less blocks, even with some detail loss, what would you choose?

Neat Video will do it. It is designed specially for noise removal from analog and DV captures. I have tried the demo on your vid. But it is slooow. On my PIV 2.4 GHz, it was about 1.5 fps.
