WarpSharp

FYI, the paper describes a method, or a general algorithm. when you'll start to implement that, you'll see that u have to use lot's of assumptions, and play around with different methods. WHEN you start doing that i can send you my email transcripts with avree for his help with this issue. good luck ;)

I to think warp sharpen and dynamic noise reduction, both in moderation are invaluable for cleaning up noisy captures. It would be great to see these implemented into avisynth

There is a Dnr version in yuy2 for avisynth here 2dclener version also for avisynth in yuy2 (more exactly in yuy with a yuv yuy2 conversion algo) and a ColorYUY2 interesting tweak tool. Milan has already included xsharpen and unmask sharpen in ffdshow cvs a long time ago; (based on Donald's filters)if I'm not wrong they should be converted to yuy2,(they are yuv for direct show filter). Welcome back neuron2. I hadn't had the opportunity before. Happy to have you again with us. Thanks all Arda

@ARDA Thank you for the kind sentiments. I am happy to be back among the great people that congregate here. One new option you have for cleaning up clips, especially anime, is to apply my new Msmooth filter, followed by a sharpening filter of choice. The great detail-preserving feature of Msmooth together with its high smoothing in non-detail areas allows one to apply quite aggressive sharpening filters afterwards without amplifying noise.
