Rough classification of third-party filters for AviSynth - a perpetual work in progress.

This page lists both scripts (see Import) and plugins (see Plugins).

[edit] Introduction

[edit] Download sites

A large list of filters can be downloaded from the following sites but be aware that some plugins listed may be outdated, only recommended as a backup.

[edit] 64-bit filters

Comprehensive list of AviSynth+ 64-bit filters →

[edit] Outdated AviSynth plugins

External plugins (old) - these older plugins are not recommended, page is there mainly for historical purposes.

[edit] Using filters

Most scripts will apply filters in the following order:

Create an AviSynth clip from a video file using a source filter.
Correct or remove any unwanted features in the video (e.g. dot crawl, field blending or telecine).
Denoise the video (optional).
Manipulate the video into the desired format (by e.g. changing the size and frame rate).

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
caf	Chromatic Aberration Fixer.	YV12	Script	Torchlight
ChromaShift	This filter will shift the chrominance information by an even number of pixels, in either horizontal direction. It can also apply an overall vertical shift of the total chrominance information, up or down. It is primarily intended to correct improper colour registration. See discussion.

More correctly, many MPEG-2 streams use slightly different coefficients (called Rec.709) for storing the color information than AviSynth's color conversion routines or the XviD/DivX decoders (called Rec.601) do, with the result that DivX/XviD clips or MPEG-2 clips encoded by TMPGEnc/QuEnc are displayed with slighty off colors. This can be checked by opening the MPEG-2 stream directly in VDubMod.	YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Wilbert Dijkhof, tritical

YUY2, YUY2	Plugin	Donald Graft
EEDI2	EEDI2 resizes an image by 2x in the vertical direction by copying the existing image to 2*y(n) and interpolating the missing field.

It can use cubic interpolation, kernel interpolation (with temporal direction switching), or one of two forms of modified ELA interpolation which help to reduce "jaggy" edges in moving areas where interpolation must be used. TDeint also supports user overrides through an input file, and can act as a smart bobber or same frame rate deinterlacer, as well as an IVTC post-processor. See discussion.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical

YV12	Script	thetoof
DOCI	Destruction of Chroma Interlacing fixes a problem where you captured pulleddown video in YV12. In the combed frames, the chroma from two frames has been blended, leading to a ghosting effect when IVTC'd. This filter reconstructs the chroma exactly and fixes the problem.	YV12	Script	jmac698
FDecimate	The FDecimate() filter provides extended decimation capabilities not available from Decimate(). It can remove frames from a clip to achieve the desired frame rate, while retaining audio/video synchronization. It preferentially removes duplicate frames where possible. ("FDecimate" stands for "Free Decimate", which implies that the output frame rate may be freely chosen, and is not limited to 1-in-N decimation).	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	Donald Graft
FDecimate2	FDecimate2 is based on FDecimate v1.0.2. FDecimate2, fixes some problems with bugged metrics in FDecimate v1.0.2.	RGB24, RGB32, YUY2, Y8, YV12, YV16, YV24, YV411	Plugin	StainlessS

Decomb	The Telecide and Decimate filters can be combined to implement IVTC.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	Donald Graft
TelecineBob	If your source soffers from field blending, as long as no deinterlacing is made you will find out that conveniently the blended fields are often paired with a clean one. FieldDeBlend takes advantage of that and checks for frames whose fields don't match to replace the frame with a clean one as long there is one.	YV12	Plugin	Ceppo
TIVTC	A package containing these 7 filters: TFM, TDecimate, MergeHints, FrameDiff, FieldDiff, ShowCombedTIVTC, and RequestLinear. Also contains these 3 conditional functions: IsCombedTIVTC, CFieldDiff, and CFrameDiff. Designed primarily for IVTC operations.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical

SmoothSkip	In tribute to tritical's awesome filter, this one tackles the inverse problem of TDecimate; allowing for addressing frames that have non-smooth, skippy motion. For source code see GitHub repository.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	jojje
Soothe	Lessens the temporal instability and aliasing caused by sharpening, by comparing the original and sharpened clip, leaving a smoother and slightly softer output. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Didée

Tracking	Use computer vision to track objects in the video, and produce ConditionalReader input. Demo at Youtube.	RGB24	Plugin	Shlomo Matichin
UnSmooth	What does it do. It amplifies noise, small detail, and artifacts. Doesn't sound very attractive, but there can still be some detail left in over smoothed encodes. See discussion.	YV12	Script	mf
WaterShed	Assuming image grey values to be elevations, it is segmented into basins and watershed lines. Useful in certain medical image analysis and recoloring work.	RGB32, RGB24, YUY2, Y8, YV12, YV16, YV24, YV411	AviSynth 2.5.8: Plugin AviSynth 2.6.0: Plugin	V. C. Mohan
xvplugins	This is simply a bunch of AviSynth stuff that isn't (really) possible using plain AviSynth and instead required a plugin.	RGB32	Plugin	Xenoveritas

 |amDCT() is an adaptive video filter providing deblocking, sharpening, local range expansion, smoothing, and bright noise removal in a single filter that can be used on video of any level of quality. These four operations work synergistically to drastically reduce block artifacts while maintaining detail and increasing local contrast.
