Recommend some avisynth filters for converting video captured from analog TV

[St Devious]

I am converting some videos captured from my TV Tuner card to H.264 . I use megui . Plz recommend me filters which i can use for removing noise , deinterlacing , deblocking , smoothing nd getting the good quality video .

Mostly i capture sports so lots of motion .

"Best" part was edited out before I could even reply, dam the mods work fast here. :)

As for filters, these are some of the ones that I use. It ALWAYS depends on the source and how you like it to looks.

-fft3dfitler/fft3dgpu (same filter, only one uses your graphics card)
-LSF (limitedSharpenfaster)
-Seesaw (you'll need mt_masktools and removegrain for this and LSF)
-awarpsharp
-colormatrix
-tweak ;)
-degrainmedian
-removegrain

Thats just a basic list. And don't use them all at once. Example, fft3dfilter, degrainmedian, and removegrain are all denoisers. Which one I use depends on my source.

LSF, Seesaw, and awarpsharp are sharpeners. awarpsharp is good for anime source. LSF is good for everything, as is Seesaw. With seesaw though, you can use a denoiser with it. I don't know how to explain it, best to read the thread. (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=104701)

colormatrix and tweak just change the colors. Tweak is not necessary, but sometimes I will use it. Colormatrix is good if your ripping from a dvd where the colorometry (sp?, idk what exactly it is) changes (can't really explain this one either...).

And probably the best advice I can give you, is use search, use the avisynth wiki, and read the documentation for the filters.

thanks wizboy for ur help and explaination too . u didn't tell wat deinterlacing filters should i use . or the ones in megui avisynth script creator r good enough ?

If the entire source is interlaced, search for MVBob (slow, good) and MCBob (slower, better).

Yea, if it's pure interlaced that works. Tdeint, and yadif also work. Take your pick. :p

If it needs IVTC (decimation) then tfm+tdecimate work, both are part of the TIVTC package.

i let the megui avisynth creator analyse the source and detect type of interlacing and use deinterlacer as required . Mostly it used Yadif . is this good enough ?

Well, um... how does the result look? Maybe... I dunno... give it a try and see what's the result?
