Why do I have so many noise when using madvr?

I have some questions I wish someone can help me.

1. I don't watch anime, but I watch a lot of movies. The source I have are all blueray, so the quality are not bad; however, I see a lot of noise on every single movie, which is really annoying! These is the setting I have.
Can anyone give me some advice that what setting do you think is best for me?

I'd say: Check the "add grain" option, under "scaling algorithm/upscaling refinement" (you probably want that turned off). Also check the dithering algorithm, under "rendering/dither" (random dither is more "noisy").

Is it only when using MadVR? What about other renderers?

Bluray video can be quite nosey, especially for older film transfers.

On other renders, the color and detail are not as good as madvr, and I wouldn't say the noise increase on madvr but there is no decrease of noise at all, which it should be? The noise is obvious enough to annoy people. I don't watch old movie though, all movies I watch are after 2000. I think my question is is there a way to significantly reduce noise in madvr?

MadVR doesn't have any noise reduction abilities that I'm aware of.

If your PC is connected to a TV or monitor with built in noise-reduction you could try enabling that, but like all noise reduction it'll probably blur a little.

You're definitely viewing the video with the levels set correctly? ie monitor/video card/MadVR all expecting the same levels, whether that's limited range or full range? Your video card hasn't got any image enhancing stuff enabled in it's control panel?

My pc is connected to a TV, and it's well calibrated, with a full range RGB. I turned off the noise reduction in the TV because I did some research and they said if my resource is good enough, these function will only make the video worse. I even tried these noise reduction in my TV and I don't see any difference. That's why I think I should do some change.

Another question if I may, I tried to change the those upscalling setting while the video is playing, what's weird is that I can't see any difference at all!!!! This really freak me out! in chroma upscaling, I tried switching from Nearest Neighbor, which is consider the worst algorithms, to NGU high, I can't see even a single difference, and I asked my roommate, he couldn't see any difference at all. I am wondering if that's the problem of my computer? As you can see from the picture I posted in this thread, the OSD is showing that madvr is making effect, but I just couldn't see the difference when changing the setting from madvr.

I hope that it would be useful to someone.
