Just saw your little experiment Harmy. I'm impressed to say the least, especially since you think it still needs some work. Perhaps we can get rid of ALL of the badly DVNR-ed shots with your process, which is what Black Magic would have accomplished if it was carried out on all shots.

Look again, it's just an SE-GOUT composite and it's sadly quite obvious, I couldn't get the colours to quite match.

This is just a theory / rambling out aloud, but you might get a better result if you only composite the luma channels from the GOUT/04SE and then merge this luma composite with the chroma channels from the GOUT.

Ideally what you need is a filter that can detect the DVNR smear, so that it will only do compositing where needed that way you're keeping the amount of the 04SE used to a minimum.

Well, I wasn't making myself quite clear, I'm using After Effects to rotoscope out the Ronto and it's actually more of a luma thing, I couldn't fit the brightness and contrast rather then colours per se. You can see, that somehow at some point, the left edge of the rotoscoped area is too dark and the right edge is too bright, so then, when you adjust the brightness and contrast, so that one edge becomes less obvious, you make the other edge become more so.
