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 It has pretty much been superceded by Donald Graft's Decomb package.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.

EDIUpsizer
|
EDIUpsizer is a resampling filter that upsizes an image by a factor of two both horizontally and vertically using NEDI (new-edge directed interpolation). See nedi.pdf for more info on the algorithm. EDIUpsizer also uses a few modifications to basic NEDI in order to prevent a lot of the artifacts that NEDI creates in detailed areas. These include condition number testing and adaptive window size (finaltzeng.pdf), as well as capping constraints. All modifications and constraints to NEDI are optional (can be turned on and off) and are user configurable. Just note that this filter is rather slow. See discussion.

FastEDIUpsizer
|
FastEDIUpsizer is a slimmed down version of EDIUpsizer that is slightly more tuned for speed. It uses a constant 8x8 window size, only performs NEDI on the luma plane, and only uses either Bicubic or Bilinear interpolation as the fall back interpolation method. See discussion.

nnedi

nnedi 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 has same rate and double rate modes, and works with YUY2 and YV12 input. nnedi can also be used to enlarge images by powers of 2. See discussion.

iiP
|
Integrated Image Processor performs basic denoising and sharpening excluding already hard edges to avoid oversharpening; this should give the best relative compressibility for any level of detail enhancement. Its main purpose is upconversion from DVD resolutions to (pseudo-) HDTV resolutions. It aims at natural sources only. For animated/cartoon content, one is probably better of with mfToon and SharpResize. See discussion. Outdated - requires MaskTools (v1).
