Description

DeGrainMedian is a spatio-temporal limited median filter mainly for film grain removal, but may be used for general denoising. For additional information see the official documentation.

Requirements

• AviSynth 2.5.8 or greater
• Supported color formats: YUY2, YV12
• SSEMMX (Integer SSE) capable CPU

Limitations

• No scenechange detector in current version. But I do not see any ghosting - filter is switched to spatial pixel pairs.
• First and last line (line pair for interlaced) of every frame are not filtered.
• First and last 8 (YV12) or 4 (YUY2) pixels in every row are filtered with more simple (same columns) method.
• Chroma filtering in YUY2 mode is also in same columns only.
• First and last frames are not filtered.

Syntax and Parameters

DeGrainMedian (clip, int "limitY", int "limitUV", int "mode", bool "interlaced", bool "norow" )

clip   =

Input clip.

int  limitY = 4

int  limitUV = 6

Limit of pixel luma(Y) and chroma(UV) correction (0 to 255).

int  mode = 1

Operation mode (0 to 5, the more, the weaker)

bool  interlaced = false

Process clip as interlaced.

bool  norow = false

Do not use same row in spatial filter.

Examples

DeGrainMedian with all default values:

AviSource("Blah.avi")
DeGrainMedian(limitY=4, limitUV=6, mode=1, interlaced=false, norow=false)
