How can a range of frames be merged?

[FredThompson]

Given a range of frames, how can they each be replaced by an averaged version of the entire range?

Donald Graft's Dup filter is fantastic but it resets after a maximum of 20 frames. Thus, it uses different sample sets and the replacement frames are not sure to all be the same.

Conditional filtering for every kind of motion, defined by thresholds:

Combined with this:

Used like this:

It may be possible, haven't tried it , I don't do anime.
But if it works you won't have the reset pattern after 20 frames.

you can use the legacy version of dup (i.e. the 2.0 avisynth version found here (http://shelob.mordor.net/dgraft/dup/duplegacy.html)), it can duplicate as many frames as you want. Very useful for credits that are static for several seconds. (ahem, certain anime (http://members.cox.net/hentai/derainbowed_megami_oav.avi))
