Filtering the cult series "Invader ZIM" using Avisynth

[rm2kpro]

Greetings, fellow encoders. :-p

I want to gently filter the cult series "Invader ZIM", so that I get an output with the highest possible quality.

I think the source form the DVD is a hybrid progressive/interlaced video.

I filtered the video with the following script; the result is good, but far from perfect.

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\DGMPGDec\DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\ColorMatrix.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\TIVTC.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\EEDI2_imp.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\TDeint.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Msmooth.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\UnDot.dll")


MPEG2Source("C:\Users\Gök\01.d2v", cpu=6, info=3)

ColorMatrix(hints=true, interlaced=true, threads=0)


edeintted = AssumeBFF().SeparateFields().SelectEven().EEDI2(field=-1)
tdeintted = TDeint(edeint=edeintted,order=1)
tfm(order=1,clip2=tdeintted).tdecimate(mode=1,hybrid=1)


Undot()

Msmooth(threshold=10, mask=false)
mergechroma(blur(1.3))

Here is an extract of the source, so that you can give me advice.

The Nightmare Begins.mpg (mediafire.com) (you don't have to wait and it takes just 4 minutes to download)

The Nightmare Begins.mpg (rapidshare.com) (if you have a premium account)

File size: 76 MB

I'm not downloading anything from rapidshare.
You have to wait, and it's slow.
I'll look at it if you put it in a place that's not an inconvenience for me.

[rm2kpro]

Alright, what do you prefer?

[lordsmurf]

Something where I can click and download without timers, try to sell me "faster" connections, etc.
I don't have time for that.

Damn lordsmurf, it's only 1 freakin' file. It's not like you had to put up with downloading 10 things over the course of days from Rapidshare. If you don't want to help, then don't respond.

rm2krpo - Forget about getting help from lordsmurf. He has too many conditions that you won't be able to meet. I don't think there is a place such as he wants you to use. If there is, I don't know about it.

I'm hardly an AviSynth expert so I'm not going to answer. I'd recommend the following. Edit the file down to something pretty small where people can download the whole thing in maybe 1 minute. Put it on Rapidshare. Weekends are slow times for many of us. The guys you need to respond to your post probably won't be active again until Monday. manono is one of our AviSynth experts. He can probably help you, but please be nice to him and get him a small sample file so he doesn't have to spend a lot of time downloading it. Lordsmurf does sort of have a point, but again, if he REALLY wanted to help since it's just one file he could download it from your link even if it takes 10+ minutes.

All I saw was simple 3:2 pulldown. But I didn't look through every single frame. And of course, that's not the entire show. How about:
MPEG2Source("filename.d2v", cpu=6, info=3)
TFM()
TDecimate()
mergechroma(blur(1.3))
Deen()

[lordsmurf]

Today alone I had 10 requests for downloading shit from those sites.
And then I've seen several posts with links to those sites.

After so many MB, you're forced to come back in an hour or pay money for "faster" service.

Sorry, but to hell with that.
