convolution3d vs SSHiQ in anime DVDs

[jarthel]

any feedback? I asked in the convolution3D thread but didn't get any reply. What's faster? Is convulotion3D designed only for noisy sources? Any other things on the comparison? Thank you.

Honestly, when I began to code Convolution3d, I didn't know there was a Avisynth port SSmoothHiq (sorry ShOdan ;) ). And I made no tests to compare those two filters. I just learn how to use it afterward.

In theory :
Convolution3d's main advantage is to use temporal informations.
SSHiq's main advantage is to have different radius support 3, 5, 7 (maybe more) and a smarter way of removing bad informations (diamond search).

For the rest you should make a test and post screenshot.

EDIT : Oooops I forgot to answer to one question. My first aim was to code a noise remover. Iago (for example) found that it is usefull (with low tresholds) to increase the compressibility of any movie.

how do I get screenshots of movies?

Load the avs into Vdub - use CTRL+1 to copy the frame to the clipboard, or use "save image sequence".

@vlad: Don't feel bad - your filter kicks a$$ :)

Jarthel, when you use 2DNR such as SSHiQ, you'd better use with temporal NR. (ex.TemporalSmoother)
