TFM() followed by QTGMC(InputType=1)

[pooksahib]

This seems an odd one. I have a PAL DVD which needs TFM() and if I then apply QTGMC(InputType=1) the picture gets a nice enhancement. Often, I end my edits with a freezeframe but when I do so here it's apparent from the preview that the QTGMC boost isn't being applied to it. Odder still is that final frame of the main edit doesn't get it either. In effect, it looks to me as if

trim(111,999)
TFM()
QTGMC(InputType=1)

only works up to frame 998. Frame 999 gets TFM'd only.
Can that be so? And how to fix? Many thanks.

Try this:

TFM()
QTGMC(InputType=1)
Trim(111,999)

You might have to adjust the trim range so that the same frames are kept, depending on what TFM is doing.
When you apply Trim first, the following filters can only work with the trimmed frames, but if the filters are applied first they should be able to request frames outside the Trim range if that's what they need (ie for denoising), even if in the end it's only the Trim range that Avisynth outputs.

If you're applying the freeze-frame yourself, do it after QTGMC too.
Edit: I'm not certain QTGMC(InputType=1) needs frames outside the trim range, but it's possibly the reason for what's happening.

It's good! Such a simple solution. Many thanks, hello_hello. I'm happy with the improvement that QTGMC gives, it's better than I got from lsfmod(). In fact, I didn't notice any change with lsfmod(). I still can't call EzDenoise with 32-bit which annoys me so I think I'll uninstall and start from scratch. It does seem unduly complex with all this renaming of a certain dll and putting different versions of it into SysWow and System 32. But I'll crack it...
