Any particular scene you would like to see,just give me your trim settings and which movie you want,all 3 are still on and ready.

I'm most concerned about residual noise on fast moving objects looking noisier than the stationary backgrounds. I seem to remember the scene with Luke as he meets the Sandcrawler that was particularily bad with previous versions of the script. Also, I need to do some work on the sharpening, as I'm getting some halos. I'm also concerned about noise from frame to frame that doesn't change, and creates a look of a veil of noise that slowly changes.

I can't give you any particular trim settings, but keep an eye out for these things. I suspect a version 5.01 in the near future.

I am seeing what you mentioned as well,I will have the Han in cantina clip available soon with screens.

dark_jedi,

thank you, I got your plugin-package. Now I get the error 'there is no function named "AddGrainC"'

Could someone help here, please?

I will add it now,and update the package,it is hard to keep track of all LOL.

and I thought we were helping you?

Here are screens of version 5,I was going to upload a sample clip but it just does not look good,the gold decorative trim behind Han is shaking all over the place,and it looks like he has more than 1 hand LOL.

Can you compare with the original, and with version 4 of the script as well?

thanks,

Well I can try and get comparison screens later,but I can never match them up just right,but looking at the GOUT and the lossless avi from V4,they both look better to me anyways than V5,there is a little shake on the gold trim behind Han on all 3,but V5 looks worse,and his hand looks better on the other 2,especially the lossless avi from V4,hopefully this all made sense LOL.

DJ,

you've got to figure out how to compare exact frames before saying stuff like this. That last frame looks better on V5 than both the original and V4. (less like he has 2 hands and a lot less smoothing artifacts). If I had a fast PC like yours, I'd be able to compare them in motion a lot easier. ;)

-G

Well sorry but I watched all three samples 1 right after the other and to me v5 looked worse,maybe DrM and others need to chime in then since I am not much help,since we all see things differently,and sorry I can't get exact frames,I capture them with PowerDVD.

But Thanks anyways for ALL the hard work you put into these scripts,you have more patience than I do,well I guess I will go back to trying to upconvert the lossless avi files.

for anyone interested,the version 4 script versions are done and can be found at the usual place.

Hey DJ,

I was only referring to your comment about the "two hands" thing. I don't doubt that you prefer V4 in motion. Are you sure I can't talk you into trying some more things?

Ofcourse I will try some more tests,if this can be made better than I am all for it,but man I have to tell you,V4 looks pretty damn good,I will be around today but I will be gone all day and into the night Saturday,going to Chicagoland Speedway to hopefully watch Jeff Gordon WIN there again.

and I agree that "screenshots" from all 3 will probably show a huge difference between them,but I have NEVER really based a lot of what I do on a single screen,I know you,DrM,and others here swear by screens,but we do NOT watch movies by stepping them forward screen by screen(well maybe some of you do)to me it has always been about the motion,the way we will see it on HDTV(regular TV for others)so that is why,like you said,V4 looked better to me,I watched them on my HDTV in motion.

and if screens is what you will need to help make this script even better than V4,then screens you will recieve,but how can I take screens from the same frame number so we can compre them correctly?

Like I said I use PowerDVD,will VDub take a single frame screenshot?

You really need to see several screen shots as well as in-motion video to make good decisions.

Okay,

I've reverted back to a version closer to v4 based on what DJ pointed out and I have verified. The debanding line is the only real improvement over v4.

-G

Thanks g-force I will give it a shot soon and post back,I know I have asked this before but is there any particular scene you would like to see?

OK here is a video sample of v 5.01,this looks much better,that is what I did yesterday,I just added GradFun2DBmod to V4 and it looked just about the same,well anyways here is the sample see what you think,we REALLY need to pick a different scene to test now,I am getting sick of this one LOL.

Looks good DJ.

Okay,

I'm a big fan of what Dark Jedi has done to the subtitles. First of all, I LOVE the color.

Also, when I would compare his subs with what I had in the script, his seemed a bit too small, but then mine seemed a bit too big. So, I decided on a compromise in size half way between his and mine. So I changed my script to use the color that he uses, and a size half way between his size and mine.

I have to add that when I say "My" subtitles, I really mean "the subtitles that started out as Moth3r's subtitles, and which I tweeked slightly"

I hope no one forgets how much of this script really belongs to Arnie.d and Moth3r.

I aplogize to them if they have felt in any way that I stole their fire. I really couldn't have done this, nor would have even thought of doing this without them.

So I assume you made the appropriate changes to the PAL subs version to?

I will add this 5.02 into the package.

also would you say this is it,no more modding,so now we can partner up and do the Japanese Special Collection "Take 2" and the 97 SE Trilogy?
