more Dot Crawl removal help-laserdisc capture

[clashradio]

Hello,

I capture NTSC laserdiscs and ran across GlitchBob's post about dot crawl removal. Being how laserdisc is composite video, I have an external 3D comb filter in the chain. My player's built-in comb filter is decent, and maybe good enough to eliminate the external comb filter if I can figure out which AVISynth plugins64 to get rid of the rest of the rainbow/dot crawl that the player's filter doesn't scrub.

If anyone has experience with using any of the Rainbow & Dot Crawl removal filters, could you please take a look at the clip and possibly advise me of a script? I can see the dot crawl better when I step frame-by frame vs. in real-time playback. Pay close attention to the pool ladder handles.

You can try MosquitoNR in Avisynth

import("i:\plugins\MCTemporalDenoise.v1.4.20.avsi")
lwlibavvideosource("C:\Users\davex\Desktop\1.avi")
convertToyv12(interlaced=true)
tfm().tdecimate()
mosquitoNR()
mctemporaldenoise(settings="very low",chroma=true)

Try this:

CheckMate() # reduce dot craw (may create ghosting on some material)
TFM()
TDecimate()
dehalo_alpha(rx=2.0, ry=1.0) # optional oversharpening halo reduction
Santiag(strv=1, strh=1, nns=4) # clean up chroma chroma interlacing artifacts
MergeChroma(aWarpSharp(depth=5), aWarpSharp2(depth=10).Sharpen(0.5)) # sharpen luma a little, chroma more

There's still a little flickering rainbow artifacts.
