Simple MDegrain Mod - SMDegrain() Mod v1.8d

EDIT (2021): New SMDegrain and more over This is just a wrapper for mdegrain, nothing fancy or magical. Just convenient automatizations for common tasks to get things done fast and in good quality, without forgetting some flexibility too. I created this based off my needs, and evolved from there. I took as a base to build it because I also wanted something simple to use and straight to the point. The main features of this function are: High bitdepth denoising Higher temporal radius (tr>3) Contrasharpening Interlaced support YUY2 support Motion Vectors Globals Input/Output RefineMotion Option (MRecalculate) +some more little options and any combination of the above supported. Everything is OFF by default so you just type smdegrain() and it works, but as soon as you start setting more parameters on you will find to need more plugins and scripts. To run it you will need at least mvtools2 and masktools2. Read on dependencies to know more. Introduction deserves a good read to understand not only the parameters but overall mvtools2 behaviour from what I have experiencied and read over the forums. This is my biggest function script I have done so I'm sure many things are wrong or can be improved for code efficiency, this is one reason I post it here. I'm not sure if it was right to add YUY2 and Globals support, as it adds lots of code without a meaningful gain on quality or possibilities. I might rethink its inclusion... I have to specially thank cretindesalpes for bearing my incesant questions related to this. Eagerly awaiting MT : ) enjoy! (18-01-2012) Changelog Code:

Hi Dogway, i'm getting an error while trying to use your function with these settings: Code:

It works for me in v.1.61, are you using this one? in v.1.6, prefilter=3 requires a pre_custom clip which must be supplied. It's the same as prefilter=4 in v.1.61 I might write some error proof code for this in later revisions. Anyway I recommend using the latest version as it fixes a few important things. If it's not this or you are using already v.1.61 tell me what is your source input for smdegrain. I work in avisynth 2.58 so I can't give advices if it's a v.2.6 related issue.

Ok, I have tried to apply SMDegrain multiple times to a noisy clip. Reference test from BD sample: Code:

Would you please try with MT such as my script and possibly on a HD source?

My laptop is not too powerful core 2 duo 2.53Gh but I'm using multithreading, post a small snippet of the source to test

Thankyou Dogway I am continually happy for your frequent improvement on this, specially since I actually am using this as a part of my newest filter that is to be released relatively soon-ish.

you are. This is a clip of the movie, not the CompTest I used. I'll post the results here as soon as I'll finish them. EDIT1: Ok, some results: PHP Code:

Thanks for your work, is cool ^^
