Using filters

Most scripts will apply filters in the following order:

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

These remove effects or artefacts introduced (deliberately or accidentally) into the source video. Denoisers are classified separately.

Anti-aliasing

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
AAA	Anti-aliasing filter designed for anime. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Soulhunter
AntiAliasing	Anti-aliasing script for, well, anti-aliasing. See discussion.	YV12	Script	SpikeSpiegel, Didée, mf, scharfis_brain and Soulhunter
AntiAliasRG	An anti-aliasing script that uses RemoveGrain(SSE3).dll. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Bloax
DAA	Anti-aliasing with contra-sharpening. Included in AnimeIVTC.	YV12	Script	Didée
mcDAA3	Motion-Compensated Anti-aliasing with contra-sharpening by AmjadSONY, can deal with ifade too, created because when applied daa3 to fixed scenes, it could damage some details and other issues. See discussion	YV12	Script	AmjadSONY
FAA	Faster Anti-aliasing. See [1].	YV12	Script	list
MAA	Anti-aliasing with edge masking. Included in AnimeIVTC.	YV12	Script	martino, Kintaro, thetoof
MAA2	Updated version of the MAA antialising script from AnimeIVTC.	Y8, YV12, YV24	Script	line0
SAA	A simple anti-aliasing script. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Soulhunter
santiag	Simple anti-aliasing with independent horizontal and vertical anti-aliasing strength.	YV12	Script	cretindesalpes
SharpAAMCmod	High quality MoComped AntiAliasing script, also a line darkener since it uses edge masking to apply tweakable warp sharpening, "normal" sharpening and line darkening with optional temporal stabilization of these edges. Part of AnimeIVTC. See [2] and [3]	YV12	Script	thetoof
TIsophote	A level-set (isophote) smoothing filter, see [4]	YV12	Plugin	tritical

Chroma correction

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
BT709ToBT601	Convert from BT.709 (HDTV) to BT.601 (SDTV) colorimetry.	YV12	Plugin	Tom Barry
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.	YV12, YUY2, RGB	Plugin	Simon Walters
ChromaShiftSP	This script can shift chroma in all directions with subpixel accuracy.		Script
ColorMatrix	ColorMatrix corrects the colors of MPEG-2 streams. 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. See discussion.	YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Wilbert Dijkhof tritical (v2.0+)
FixChromaBleeding	Fixes area of chroma bleeding by shifting the chroma and lowering the saturation in the affected areas.	YV12	Script	Alex Jordan
FixChromaBleedingMod	Fixes area of chroma bleeding by shifting the chroma and lowering the saturation in the affected areas. archived link	YV12	Script	AmjadSONY
FixChromaticAberration	FixChromaticAberration resizes (and crops) the red/green/blue channels of the image separately. This helps to minimize the colored edges next to the image corners that result from lenses with chromatic aberration. See discussion.	RGB24	Script	Martin Wagener
MoveChroma	MoveChroma is a simple filter combination that helps in moving chroma back, if it has been displaced.		Script
ReInterpolate411	This is a fast simple filter to correct the improper 4:1:1 => 4:2:2 conversion that seems to occur with some DV/4:1:1 codes when used with Avisynth. It assumes the odd chroma pixels are duplicates and discards them replacing them with the average of the two horizontally adjacent even chroma pixels. It doesn't matter whether the clip is interlaced though it must be in YUY2 format for Avisynth 2.5. There are no parameters, and currently no readme file.	YUY2	Plugin	Tom Barry
ReInterpolate420	Usually, DV decoders upsample PAL DV (which is YV12) to YUY2 using point sampling. This plugin reinterpolates the original chroma samples.	YUY2	Plugin	Wilbert Dijkhof Fizick (v3)

Dehaloing

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
abcxyz	Filter to remove halos. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Didée
BlindDeHalo3	Filter to remove edge enhancement artefacts. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Didée
DeHalo_alpha	Very powerful filter to remove edge enhancement artefacts. See discussion.	YV12	Script	Didée

ungibbs	ungibbs, a gibbs artifact remover.	YV12	Script	*.mp4 guy
WarpDeRing	Uses aWarpSharp2's flattening to clean out ringing/smaller halos, then runs some masks to preserve the edges and avoid the thinning.	YV12	Script	mirkosp
WarpDeRing_faster	Same as WarpDeRing but may be a bit faster.	YV12	Script	mirkosp

Deinterlacing

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
Area	A port of Gunnar Thalin's VirtualDub filter "Deinterlace - area based" to AviSynth.	RGB32	Plugin	Donald Graft // Gunnar Thalin
BlendBob	Filter designed for use after a smart bob; blends every other frame with the closest matching neighbouring frame. See discussion.	YV12	Plugin	Kurt Prünner
DGBob	This filter splits each field of the source into its own frame and then adaptively creates the missing lines either by interpolating the current field or by using the previous field's data. See discussion.	RGB, YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Donald Graft
Decomb	The FieldDeinterlace filter provides functionality similar to the postprocessing function of Telecide. You can use it for pure interlaced streams (that is, those not containing telecined progressive frames). The name refers to the fact that field mode differencing is used.	YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Donald Graft
GreedyHMA	GreedyHMA is an Avisynth filter that executes DScaler's Greedy/HM algorithm code to perform pulldown matching, filtering, and video deinterlace. It has pretty much been superceded by Donald Graft's Decomb package. However there may be occasions where it sometimes gives preferable results, especially with some bad PAL clips.	YUY2	Plugin	Tom Barry
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 is intended for edge-directed interpolation for deinterlacing (i.e. not really made for resizing a normal image, but can do that as well).	RGB24, YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical
EEDI3	Another edge directed interpolation filter. Works by minimizing a cost functional involving every pixel in a scan line. eedi3 is good for deinterlacing and enlarging images by the powers of 2.	RGB24, YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical
IBob	Interpolating Bob works identically to the Avisynth built-in Bob filter except that it uses linear interpolation instead of bicubic resizing. See discussion.	YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Kevin Atkinson
KernelDeint	This filter deinterlaces using a kernel approach. It gives greatly improved vertical resolution in deinterlaced areas compared to simple field discarding. Superceded by LeakKernelDeint, see the description below in this table.	RGB, YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Donald Graft
LeakKernelBob	This filter does a full framerate deinterlacing, i.e. it turn 50 fields per second into 50 frames per second. Adapted from Scharfis_brain's script of the same name.	RGB32, YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Kurt Prünner
LeakKernelDeint	This filter deinterlaces using a kernel approach. It gives greatly improved vertical resolution in deinterlaced areas compared to simple field discarding. Compared to KernelDeint, it is low-level optimized (for speed) and provides some useful new functionality. As the original author of KernelDeint() states, LeakKernelDeint() is the preferred version to use.	RGB32, YV12, YUY2	Plugin	Kurt Prünner
MCBob	Another approach to motion compensated bobbing. No residual combing, Motion Masking adaptive to local complexity, self adaptive error correction for temporal interpolation, Motion Search between fields of same parity, and spatial Interpolation overweights spatio-temporal interpolation. Is SLOW. MCBob + EEDI2 [6] MCBob + NNEDI [7]		Script	Didée
MVBob	by scharfis_brain [8]		Script	scharfis_brain
nnedi3	nnedi3 is an intra-field only deinterlacer. It takes in a frame, throws away one field, and then interpolates the missing pixels using only information from the kept field. It also has same rate and double rate modes.	RGB24, YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical
nnedi3ocl	OpenCL rewrite of nnedi3. See discussion.	Y8, YV12, YV16, YV24, YV411	Plugin	SEt
QTGMC	by -Vit- [9] A new deinterlacer based on TempGaussMC_beta2. It's faster and has a presets system for speed/quality selection. There are also several new features including progressive support and noise/grain processing. The script also contains extensive comments to better describe the settings and the workings of the TGMC algorithm.		Script	-Vit-
SangNom	A single field deinterlacer, can also be used for anti-aliasing. See discussion.	YV12	Plugin	Marc FD
SangNom2	Reimplementation of the old SangNom plugin. See discussion.	Y8,YV12, YV16, YV24, YV411	Plugin	tp7
Securebob	type=2 or type=3. (part of MVbob) [10]		Script	scharfis_brain
SecureDeint	(part of MVbob) [11]		Script (?)	scharfis_brain
SmoothDeinterlace	by Gunnar Thalin [12]		Plugin	Gunnar Thalin
TDeint	TDeint is a bi-directionally, motion adaptive (sharp) deinterlacer. It can also adaptively choose between using per-field and per-pixel motion adaptivity. 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
Telecide Hints	The filter process the stats file to get the usual progressive matches and identify VFR sections.		Plugin
TempGaussMC	Motion-compensated bob deinterlacer, based on temporal gaussian blurring. reduces noise/grain of the source and does NOT leave the original fields unchanged. Output is rich with details and very stable. Is SLOW	YUY2, YV12	Script	Didée
TomsMoComp	This filter uses motion compensation and adaptive processing to deinterlace video source (not for NTSC film). See discussion.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	Tom Barry
Yadif	Port of YADIF (Yet Another DeInterlacing Filter) from MPlayer by Michael Niedermayer (http://www.mplayerhq.hu). It check pixels of previous, current and next frames to re-create the missed field by some local adaptive method (edge-directed interpolation) and uses spatial check to prevent most artifacts.	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	Fizick
yadifmod	Modified version of Fizick's avisynth filter port of yadif from mplayer. This version doesn't internally generate spatial predictions, but takes them from an external clip. It also is not an Avisynth_C plugin (just a normal one).	YUY2, YV12	Plugin	tritical
TomsBob	We've asked Tom to include a proper 60fps deinterlacer in his wonderful TomsMoComp, but until then you'll have to make do with TomsBob.		Script

IVTC & Decimation

Filter	Description	Color format	Plugin / Script	Author
AnimeIVTC	What it does: High quality adaptative field matching for hard telecine Bob, remove the blends and decimate back to the desired framerate for DHT/field-blended Creating a VFR clip for hybrid sources Bob the interlaced credits, blend-deinterlacing the background while doing minimal damage on the progressive credits, convert their framerate to match the episode's and splice them with it OR leave them @ 30p to create a VFR clip Very good combing removal and anti-aliasing functions See [13] and See [14] for mod ver.		Script	thetoof
BruteIVTC			Plugin	Marc FD
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.		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.
