Hi!

I used to do my video "editing" with Virtualdub and I was very pleased with the temporal smoother. No I have a digital tv card, and all my recordings are in mpeg2, so I switched to avisynth because it is much faster than virtualdub. But now I have tried various temporal smoother and they did not work as good as the virtualdub one. I set the virtualdub filter to 4 or 5 and the noise is gone, but the motion is not blurred. But now with avisynth 2.5, every smoother I tried blurs the motion or there is still noise left (perhaps because I did not know what all the options are for). Is there a way to use a temporal smoother in yu12 in avisynth that gives the results like virtualdub?

Thanks

Personally i use temporalcleaner if you're looking for a temporalfilter. Gives good results and does not blur. But perhaps you should try a spatial-temporal filter, like convolution3d, deen's a3d, fluxsmooth, etc.. Just search for these filters here and you should find the thread easily.

well, you can do it the hard way, and load the virtualdub filter through avisynth [LoadVirtualdubPlugin, or Import(vdub_filters.avs)], but you'd still have to convert to rgb colorspace, or you can read this thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47967&highlight=temporalsoften+settings) about pixel locking in avisynth (what the temporal cleaner in VDub does basically.

TemporalSmoother for avisynth is included (i think)
on mpeg2dec.dll from dividee. Think only works with 2.0.x

I tried different filters now, but nothing gives me the quality of the temporalsmoother and smartsmootherHiQ combination in Virtualdub on noisy anime (is there any anime without of noise???). So I have to stay with Virtualdub with 1.5fps.

edeen has a sshiq function i believe, and temporalcleaner is better imo than temporalsmoother. deen's a2d also works well.
