Video recorded with a Digital Photo improvement of the picture

[shorto]

OK, so my friend recorded a concert and the picture on the computer is fuzzy and mostly unclear, so I tried to put it on my TV set via an HDMI cable from my computer and the picture is really watchable I was just wandering any ideas what to insert into the AVIsynth script to get the same ersults? It's basically recorded at a low resolution that's why the picture gets all mushed up but I was just wandering is there were any filters to kinda make it better @ full-screen.

There might be something you can do to improve it, but it depends on how "bad" it is. Post a native video sample

There we go

The first thing you want to do is adjust the levels to the correct range:
ColorYUV(levels="PC->TV")

Your clip was recorded with black=0, white=255 instead of the normal 16-235 which means all detail in the darkest and brightest bits is lost when played back normally. This seems typical of video clips from a 'stills' camera using MJPEG.

Just a quick newbie question; up scaling to 640x480 or any other higher resolution? Recommendations etc??

Not bad for what it is. Be glad the camera was shooting MJPG with all that shake. You can play with levels and maybe blur out some pixel edges but don't expect much. Upscale will make the pixels smaller but add blur.

@ edDV

Could you explain a bit futher I know how to add blur but I have no idea about the "levels" your were talking about

Current script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\TIVTC.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\dgdecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\telecidehints.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\fieldhint.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\RemoveGrain.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\nnedi.dll")

function Preset0(clip c) {
#Name: Default
c
removegrain(mode=1)
return last
}


v=AviSource("C:\Users\shorto\Desktop\enkoding\comm andline\part1.avi")
a=v.Trim(0,120)
b=v.Trim(121,167)
c=v.Trim(168,5647)
d=v.Trim(5648,5783)

b2=ImageSource("logo.png",pixel_type="RGB32")
b8=ImageSource("logo.png",pixel_type="RGB32")
b3=Overlay(b,b2,mask=b2.ShowAlpha().Trim(0,46).Fad eIO0(27),x=0,y=75)
d2=Overlay(d,b8,mask=b8.ShowAlpha().FadeIn(27),x=1 30,y=260)

At the very least, you should be using ColorYUV(levels="PC->TV"), as I said in post #4.

Right I knew that I forgot something....... Tnx again!
