I never found an Avisynth plug-in that accepts a paint program's histogram functions numbers. However, in the Song Of The South thread, I noted that VirtualDub with a plug-in (Gradation Curves v.1.46b by BBugBunny, A.K.A. Alexander Nagiller) allows for a manual reconstruction of the histogram graph:

I know it's cludgy but that's the best I could find.

IIRC, I found that script where I was following some of your posts (can't remember in which thread, maybe THX1138?), and I used it with my SW:ANH '97... it was really hard to achieve a good result, took a long time and a lot of tests, and I was not really satisfied with it... hope the new tests with this ColourMatch method will be even better than the current ones.

My dad even complained about Neo's green beard the last time I lent him the BD.

... at one moment, I thought to be crazy, but now that someone else noted it immediately, there are two options:

me and your dad are good observers
me and your dad are mad about wrong details

at least now I'm not alone anymore... (^^,)

About a preservation project: it seems there is some interest showed in this thread, and I definitely like the idea to do it, along with theatrical DTS soundtrack. Leave me one day to test further, post new screenshots, and if they will be better than these ones, BAM! "The Matrix [spoRv]" could be reality! Should I dare to do it?
