Description

AutoAdjust is an automatic adjustement filter. It calculates statistics of clip, stabilizes them temporally and uses them to adjust luminance gain & color balance.

AutoAdjust have a smoothing & dithering algorithm to avoid banding issue. Calculations are made in 32bits float to avoid rounding errors and are internally multithreaded and SSE2/AVX2 optimized.

For manual adjustments, see all functions in the "SmoothAdjust" plugin.

General Settings

    external_clip [default: none]
    -----------------------------
     Use external analyze clip to retrieve clip's statistics
      --> EXAMPLE: black borders need to be cropped before analyze of the clip
                   " src = last
                     crp = src.crop(xx,xx,xx,xx)
                     AutoAdjust(src, external_clip = crp) "

    scd_threshold [default: 12]
    ---------------------------
     Threshold for scenechange detection [useful range: 8~16]
      0   = all frames are detected as scene change
      100 = no scene change are detected

    temporal_radius [default: 20]
    -----------------------------
     Radius for temporal stabilization in each direction [useful range: 10~30]

    change_status [default: "empty"]
    --------------------------------
     Override the scenechange detection algorithm

                    - "!200-300"     = force no scenechange at each frame between 200~300
                    - "!400;500-600" = force no scenechange at frame 400
                                     & force scenechange at each frame between 500~600

    --------------------
     Use ASM optimization when available
      0 = automatic choice
      1 = use C code
      2 = use SSE2 code

MultiThreading

AutoAdjust is internally multithreaded with official AviSynth version. If AviSynthPlus or AviSynthMT is detected, internal multithreading is automatically disabled even if external multithreading isn't used (this can be reactivated in parameters).

AutoAdjust is designed to work with external multithreading, so fastest MT mode can be used. With AviSynthPlus, this plugin is a MT_NICE_FILTER (automatic register, no need to call SetFilterMtMode). With AviSynthMT, SetMtMode(1) must be called before AutoAdjust.
