Colour Errors

[Martinsson18]

So, I wanted to make a little Fumoffu-AMV, but then I noticed a lot of source probs. One of them were these dot crawls. I didn't get out all of them, but those you can see are rarely and I'll not use them while editing. Btw, I got the scripts from this topic and change them a little bit. So, where's the problem? Well, after I used DeRainbow() the rainbow-effects were gone, but therefore there are some colour-errors.



<B>Mpeg2Source("D:\Source\FUMOFFU\DVD 1\VTS_02_1.d2v", cpu=4, ipp=true, idct=5)
DeRainbow()
Tcomb(mode=2,fthreshl=12, othreshl=19)
TFM(order=-1,mode=5,PP=7,field=-1,slow=2)
TDecimate(2)
TIsophote()
Deen("a3d",1,2,5)
vmtoon(thinning=100, strength=75, ssw=2, ssh=2, xstren=175)
crop(8,0,-8,0)
lanczosresize(640,480)
tweak(sat=1.0)</B>


Now I want to know what I can do to clear my footage of these errors!? Or does anybody have a better script? Please let me know. Wait, there is one more thing. Am I able to make an antialising after compressed it?

DeRainbow()
Tcomb(mode=2,fthreshl=12, othreshl=19)

Why are you using two derainbowers?

Deen("a3d",1,2,5)

Of course, this could also be contributing to your problems (though with such weak settings, I doubt it).

tweak(sat=1.0)

And this line doesn't even do anything at all.

I'm not sure what you mean by your last question; do you mean compressing the video for distribution when you're finished editing, or...?

[Martinsson18]

I'm not very good with this technical stuff. I guess, you already noticed.
I used two DeRainbowers because with only TComb or DeRainbow there is no good result. About the last question; imo the lines look ugly, so I wanted to make them more straight. I know that this is possible with TDeint, but I've no idea how to do it with TFM. Sorry about my inexperience. So, what's a better script-solution?

vmtoon might be contributing to the jaggedness of the lines.
Remove the "2" from tdecimate. That will completely screw up your framerate.

To see whats causing the color problems, comment out lines one at a time to see which filter causes it (put a # infront of the line).

Ok, I got it. The problem were the two DeRainbowers. But now I have another prob. I cannot take out all of the rainbows with only TComb and I can't take another DeRainbower because I need TComb for undotting the file (almost) completely.

You're using TComb in mode 2, which only works on the chroma. It shouldn't be doing any undotting at all.

Okay, one last question: Are DFMDeRainbow() and DeRainbow() equal? It's because I would like to try all DeRainbowers there are and I cannot find the DFM thing to download anywhere. Also VDub shows an error-message everytime I tried to put it into the script.

Try bifrost as your derainbower. It seems to be pretty decent in my tests. I never tried tcomb.

I usually use a combination of DFMDeRainbow and LUTDeRainbow - that wipes out most of the rainbows I come across (makes the rainbows in the original R1 DVD release of the Ah! My Goddess OVA virtually, if not completely, disappear). Just be aware that pairing them together will slow down your script exponentially. I've never had much luck with other derainbowing filters. I stick to only using TComb's undot/luma functions (mode=0).
