LOTR TT Quality Problems?

[Bad Joker]

hi pals

i encoded lotr tt with gknot to a 3 cd rip and still get quality problems in the outdoor scenes, i mean riddimark and the landscape scenes.

the picture is there VERY noisy and the background ist crizzled up all the way, anyone got the same experiences with this movie?

i used divx 3 1210 kbit/s and 0.27 bits/pixel, ac3 6ch, res of 672*272, normal bicubic, light noise filter (before resize), credits @ 17

anyone got a tip for this? i'm not happy about the result i got, all other scenes are fine, but if i use the medium noise filter, it will also got used for the rest of the movie, which isn't noisy at all.

Hi-

If you want to apply a filter for just the troublesome parts, then you can do something like this:

ApplyRange(FrameStart,FrameEnd,"TemporalSoften",3,5,5,10,2)

I got some noise distortion when I applied the noise filter on a project before as well, I then did it with no filter and it fixed the problem.

ya but it's my third encode, first was without noise filter, second was with lower res and higher bitrate and third was with normal bicubic and noise filter. was until now the best result, but still not satisfying :(

I too made this encode onto 3 disks, and it looks spectacular. Here are a few suggestions. Use or not at your own pleasure.

Crop to 640x360 (Widescreen DVD obviously)
Do not resize
Use Divx 5.05 or 5.10 ( No PVE in either case )
UnDot()
WarpSharp()
VagueDenoiser(threshold=1.2,method=1,nsteps=6,chroma=true)

Just a few things to try.....enjoy
