    If it is any at all possible (as I know most [not all] people in this forum can't help themselves) can someone please direct me to a decent avisynth plugin or script (that I would obviously need to tweak) to reduce color bleed in animation. Now, hold on...before most of you let your asses catch on fire at such a "foolish, n00bish, simple-minded" question, here's the hard part:

    I need this question answered straight to the point. Without arrogance, obnoxious and unecessary video jargon, and I can also do without you trying to prove to me that your video dick is bigger than mine (as it most likely is, otherwise I wouldn't be asking such a question here). Now, is this possible? Can someone just answer the question direct to the point, without coming off as a jerk? Is it possible for this pixelated miracle to occur once in videohelp.com? Good.

    Now ladies, on your mark...get set.....post!

    usually it's a color space conversion problem from the encoder

    what was your source format and destination format and what did you use to convert it ??

    MeGui has a good script creator engin and FitCd too ..

    do the color conversion within avisynth may solve the problem

    well it might help if you spend less time whining about the help here and provided a bit more on the details of the video you're trying to work on.

    your needs are meaningless here, it's all voluntary, and if you f with the people with the answers, you deserve none.

    smartel, the source is a professional, retail DVD and it was, unfortunately, already like this. I cleaned it up in virtualdub, exported as AVI and am using Windows DVD Maker (as it gives me the highest, equal to the source picture quality) to encode and author. But yeah, it's already in the source. I was just trying to correct it.

    hi aedipuss, honey!

    How exactly do you expect to correct a DVD source?

    Maybe if you provide some source frame caps showing the issue.

    Generally, color bleed (color smear?) is the result of poor mastering. Is the chroma h shifted linearly or spread wide? If the former, it can be fixed. If the latter, the production path probably passed through analog NTSC or PAL. Both have narrow chroma bandwidth (0.5-1.5 MHz). 0.5 MHz (e.g. VHS) allows only 40 color changes across a line. A properly mastered 4:2:0 DVD can show up to 300 color changes across a line.

    Maybe an HD version exists.

    If there are people here who annoy you, instead of insulting everyone preemptively, just add them to your ignore list.
    -- click on their name next to their post, go to their profile, and click on "Add to Ignore List".
    As I've just done for you.

    Good luck.

    wow, another one who thinks he's better than a movie studio. may as well re-draw&paint each cell yourself while you're at it.

    bye, have a nice day!

  11. AviSynth:
    ChromaShift() #shift chroma
    MergeChroma(awarpsharp2(depth=48)) #sharpen chroma
