Creating an AviSynth Video Enhancement Script

[ingoldie]

Please help!
I've been working on creating an AviSynth Video Enhancement Script for years.
So I don't have any time to work and I need financial support.

Let's refresh memory:

By the way, I don't plan on creating a software to sell.

I'm trying to create a Freeware.

Hard to believe it's been six years since you posted those same clips:

AviSynth equivalent of the Super-Resolution technique in Adobe Photoshop? (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1889042#post1889042)

I sincerely hope that you are able to finish the project some day.

As for getting money for your scripts, here's a link to the post VoodoFX referenced:

Those who are new to this might want to start reading that thread at the point linked to, and skim through the next two pages.

Unless it is as good or better than this output, I would give the idea away.

It is very unnatural. I can get a better unnatural result with AviSynth. My goal is to get a natural result anyway.

[ingoldie]

For example I can get a better result about denoising. But without loss of detail, I can get a result like this at most.
And one of my goals is to get a better result about denoising without loss of detail.

But you have not yet showed it. Goorawin did but yours still has "wobbly/creeping" artifacts. No script, no help. This is "AviSynth Usage" and requires a script to tweak somewhere.

To the next question, please specify what you find unnatural. I find your result unnatural with the wobbly sky after denoising but you maybe have another concept of "unnatural" than others here.

[ingoldie]

To the next question, please specify what you find unnatural.

The result is like painting. It doesn't seem realistic.

Does anybody have any advice on removing noise without loss of detail?

Try TemporalDegrain2 or SMDegrain

[ingoldie]

Try TemporalDegrain2 or SMDegrain

Of course I tried but both didn't work on removing noise without loss of detail?
Any other advice?

[anton_foy]

Clay you can try.

[ingoldie]

By the way, AviSynth noise removal plugin is already used for the results.
But it's not enough unless the details are lost.

[kedautinh12]

Of course I tried but both didn't work on removing noise without loss of detail?
Any other advice?

Try with postFFT=4 or 5 in TemporalDegrain2. You need try edit parameters in SMDegrain, don't use default settings

Can you edit all parameters in both TemporalDegrain2 and SMDegrain?

[ingoldie]

Clay you can try.

This script belongs to you, so you know best how to use it.
Can you edit all parameters in Clay for the results?

Sure go ahead and tweak all you want.

I tried many AviSynth denoisers but can't get a result without loss of detail.
Can I see your effort please?

I wonder why both of you don't try and test. I'm lazy and just suggestions. You need to try before ask someone result :D

Both are very bad. Detail loss, multiple deformities, etc.

[kedautinh12]

Both are very bad. Detail loss, multiple deformities, etc.

Can you screenshot where detail lost between original and denoised video? And deformities relate interlaced not noised. Denoised script can't fix interlaced, you need use Deinterlaced script to fix that

[ingoldie]

Open two files via the same AvsPmod and view them sequentially to see all the difference between "Results without denoising" and denoised results ("SMDegrain Result", "TemporalDegrain2 Result 2")


SMDegrain Result

TemporalDegrain2 Result 2

https://i.ibb.co/47tF76S/Temporal-Degrain2-Result-2.png (https://ibb.co/DtW1txM)


There is also a general loss of detail.

[kedautinh12]

Can you compared with original video???

[ingoldie]

Here is the Original upscaled(lanczos4resize(1024,768)) to compare with SMDegrain Result

Compare here, this is sample you share me not sample above

[kedautinh12]

And can you share me sample before upscale?? I think you need Deinterlaced before upscale to get progressive frame

[ingoldie]

Do you mean the following files in the first post?

Original2(512x384)
https://mediafire.com/file/24uvlc89yzx6atx/Original2.avi/file

[ingoldie]

By the way, when I play the following video, deformities occur in the places I marked.

SMDegrain Result

[ingoldie]

When I upscale(lanczos4resize(1024,768)) or zoom 200% the following Original(512x384) files in the second AvsPmod and compare them with the Results without denoising, I can't see any problem except noises.

If you pay attention, the results look very natural and I don't know how I can remove the noises without loosing this naturalness.

[ingoldie]

I mean I don't know how I can get a better result compared to the following results.

I don't see the difference between your sample without denoised and my script. Your samples were lost details and you blame denoised as the reason for lost detail?? check here:
https://i.imgur.com/4p7fdTY.png

[ingoldie]

Does the denoised frame belong to result of


SMDegrain(6, 400, prefilter=6, ContraSharp=true, RefineMotion=true, plane=4, limits=false, DCTFlicker=false)

or


TemporalDegrain2(postFFT=4, fftThreads=2)

[kedautinh12]

SMDegrain(6, 400, prefilter=6, ContraSharp=true, RefineMotion=true, plane=4, limits=false, DCTFlicker=false)

[ingoldie]

Can you send both frames?

[kedautinh12]

Do you mean the following files in the first post?

You don't need to denoised if you use a deinterlaced filter before upscale
Scripts I used with original sample before upscale
tfm(cthresh=10)
lanczos4resize(1024,768)

[kedautinh12]

Can you send both frames?

I compare between frame 2 for the image

[ingoldie]

Have you tried to open two files via the same AvsPmod and view them sequentially(one by one, not side by side but on top of each other) to see all the difference between "Results without denoising" and denoised results ("SMDegrain Result", "TemporalDegrain2 Result 2")

[kedautinh12]

As I told deformities cause video to be interlaced, you need to use deinterlaced filters before upscaling. Use my scripts with original video to fix that:

tfm(cthresh=10) # deinterlaced before upscale
lanczos4resize(1024,768)
ex_unsharp(0.3,Fc=width()/1.5,safe=true) # Remove some of the dreamy look
ex_unsharp(1.0,Fc=width()*2.0,safe=true) # Extra fine sharpness

[kedautinh12]

I think we need to denoise before sharpening so I think this script is better for original1:

converttoyuv420
tfm(cthresh=10) # deinterlaced before upscale
lanczos4resize(1024,768)
TemporalDegrain2(postFFT=4, ppSCD1=1, thSCD2=20, fftThreads=2) # denoised
ex_unsharp(0.3,Fc=width()/1.5,safe=true) # Remove some of the dreamy look
ex_unsharp(1.0,Fc=width()*2.0,safe=true) # Extra fine sharpness

Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1c3t4IRnCBe_ZVsnTWronbAVBknnZBskZ/view?usp=drive_link

[kedautinh12]

With original2, I think we can use this script for a good result:

converttoyuv420
tfm(cthresh=10) # deinterlaced before upscale
lanczos4resize(1024,768)
YAHR3() # dehaloing
TemporalDegrain2(postFFT=4, fftThreads=2) # denoised
ex_unsharp(0.3,Fc=width()/1.5,safe=true) # Remove some of the dreamy look
ex_unsharp(1.0,Fc=width()*2.0,safe=true) # Extra fine sharpness
