any feedback? I asked in the convolution3D thread but didn't get any reply. What's faster? Is convulotion3D designed only for noisy sources? Any other things on the comparison? Thank you. Jayel

Honestly, when I began to code Convolution3d, I didn't know there was a Avisynth port SSmoothHiq (sorry ShOdan ;) ). And I made no tests to compare those two filters. I just learn how to use it afterward. In theory : Convolution3d's main advantage is to use temporal informations. SSHiq's main advantage is to have different radius support 3, 5, 7 (maybe more) and a smarter way of removing bad informations (diamond search). For the rest you should make a test and post screenshot. EDIT : Oooops I forgot to answer to one question. My first aim was to code a noise remover. Iago (for example) found that it is usefull (with low tresholds) to increase the compressibility of any movie.

how do I get screenshots of movies? thanks Jayel

Load the avs into Vdub - use CTRL+1 to copy the frame to the clipboard, or use "save image sequence". @vlad: Don't feel bad - your filter kicks a$$ :)
