Noise Reduction Filters : Before or After resizing ?

[iparout]

Hi.

Can someone tell me which is the best way to apply the Noise Reduction filters that come with Gordian Knot; should I apply them before or after resizing ? Which if the two methods yields the best results and the best quality ?

Thanks in advance.

I use them before resizing, because possibly left noise-reduction-artifakts are smoothed through the resizer.

On the other hand, the resizer before the denoiser will reduce the noise lefe, too.

I think, this depends on the situation and the video.

if you resize considerably, noise reduzing filters run faster after the resizing...

I always do it after resizing as it's faster and I can't tell the difference wheter I put it before or after.

Hi-

Me too, N_F, but I think it's generally agreed that for quality, put them before the Resize. For speed, put them after the Resize.
