The script (both plugins are autoloaded):
clip=DGSource("c:\DGBob_test.dgi")
bob1=clip.yadifmod2(mode=1,order=1).subtitle("yadifmod2")
bob2=clip.DGbob(order=1,mode=1).subtitle("DGBob")
Return interleave(bob1,bob2)

admin note: oops I accidentally edited this instead of replying.

You had said you thought DGBob was leaving more residual combing.

Oh yes! So still 11 years and 11 months to go ....

Apart from a speed gain I would see a major benefit in getting ONE plugin for QTGMC similar functionality and quality.
To collect the "right" set of plugins for keeping track with ongoing avisynth (forks) and QTGMC developments can be quite an exercise today. Let's see .....

Just curious: How is it going with the bobber?

Ah, the penny dropped why I got the horizontal reduction only. My source was actually 4:2:2 rather than 4:2:0.
Thanks.

Generally, it's a tradeoff of speed against thoroughness (aka, "quality"). Take chroma. Make this script: dgsource("sample.dgi") UtoY() # visualize the chroma U plane and compare it to this: dgsource("sample.dgi") grayscale() # visualize the luma plane Why is the chroma U plane view shown at half f...

Out of curiosity: Has Faroudja's DCDi algo ever been released/licensed as a SW package for PC use, or was it only available as HW (chip) solution in standalone players and/or TV sets?

Edit:
Never mind. I found the answer in Wikipedia.

Confirmed. It's working.

I am getting ugly artefacts (broad diagonal color stripes) with chroma=true in DGDenoise.
My source is interlaced video. I separate the fields before applying the filter. Unless I am missing something you should be able to duplicate the issue with any source clip.

Oh that was quick. I was just about to write "Good morning. No rush, you have more important projects in the pipeline". But I am glad you could duplicate it

DGDecimate has to do some trickiness for random access. I'll look again at the code. Meanwhile if you can give me a stream and script and steps to reproduce it that would make it much easier to pin down. It's probably going to involve jumping around on the timeline. Thanks. Here a .zip with - Synth...

Hi Donald I made another strange observation, this time with DGDecimate() for the decimation of hard telecined 2:3 sources. The picture sequence one would expect after IVTC is A B C D E F G H I J K .... progressive pictures, and this is what I usually get, but sometimes I am getting A B C D E E F H ...

Wow! Thanks a bunch for the analysis and the explanations with the educational script! I think I got it. I should have remembered the problem with field shifts/orphaned fields, but apparently I was mislead by my wrong interpretation that Telecine had "fixed" the issue. Your explanation made it very ...

Yes, to my surprise I could index the .avi (avc in avi).
I do normally use AVISource for .avi containers. It's just that whenever possible I prefer to create an index file to avoid directshowsource.

Here the .zip containing
- the source (.avi)
- the index file (.dgi)
- my script (.avs)

I added my observations at the end of the script.

Thanks for looking at it.

New GPU DGTelecide() vs legacy CPU Telecide(): I made some tests with the GPU and CPU versions and -- after trying to align the vthresh and pthresh values respectively for obtaining about "similar sensitivity" -- I found that there seem to exist significant differences regarding field matching and p...

I am using QTGMC as a gold standard for quality. One little problem I have run into on TheBeast is that, inexplicably, the RemoveGrainSSE2/3 DLLs will not load on Win10. They load on Win8.1, and all the other QTGMC DLLs load fine on Win10. So I had to use RemoveGrainS.dll, which may slow down QTGMC...

This looks promising.

As long as you have some fun with it I would be the last one to stop you

Have you considered an alternative capture utility that can capture to AVC in transport or MP4? AVI is so yesterday. Yes, for example I can capture with x264 vfw in fast mode (--preset verifast) and low CRF (say 10, "transparent") without dropping frames. The problem is however that I captured thes...

For mode 2, the whole test of whether a frame is combed is omitted entirely and all frames are assumed to be combed. Then they are adaptively deinterlaced. mode 2 = FieldDeinterlace(full=true) mode 3 = FieldDeinterlace(full=false) Thanks for clarification. Actually I should have asked whether the r...

Hi Don Thanks for the latest DGDecomb with the new deinterlacing modes substituting the former FieldDeinterlace. I did first tests and it works very well here. The show and map options are very helpful. Just for my understanding: DGTelecide(mode=2) does the same as DGTelecide(mode=3,pthresh=0.0), co...

Enjoy the taste of Globalization, guys!

Just for my understanding: The classic Decomb plugin includes the 3 functions a. FieldDeinterlace(), an adaptive deinterlacer for interlaced video b. Telecide(), for field matching of telecined footage with deinterlacing postprocessor c. Decimate(), for decimation of 1 in every N frames Now we have ...
