Enhance Video Quality using FFdshow and AVISynth

Although previously i’ve tried this step in the past, but at that time i’m still using barton which is not strong enough even just to handle LimitedSharpening filter and caused big slowdown to the movie (read: lag) that’s why i prefer not to use this method at that time … but since i just upgraded my computer processor ( Athlon64 X2 4200+ ) i can use this avisynth script to pre-process video played on Zoom Player via FFDshow using AVISynth Script called BlindDehalo and Limited Sharpen (unfortunately it’s still impossible for me to turn them both on at the same time)

Btw here’s what the default video looks like :

Ah My Goddess Normal

And here’s what it looks like with some effects from LimitedSharpen (i prefer to use this one rather than the sharpen filter on FFDshow) :

Ah My Goddess LimitedSharpen

And here’s another screenshot taken using BlindDehalo 2 (i’d definitely use this because in my opinion i really like how the video displayed, if only my processor can handle it without stuttering / lagging) :

Ah My Goddess BlindDehalo2

While below screenshot using BlindDehalo 2 with LimitedSharpen (The truth is, my pc is still not strong enough to handle this combo, and in other words this is just for screenshot purpose only):

Ah My Goddess BlindDehalo2 LimitedSharpen

As for the step on how to do it, or more info about this, you can read it at avsforum ;) … but as a side note, i’m using LimitedSharpenFaster instead of the original LimitedSharpen …

and here’s the link to get the avisynth script used (link updated / added) :

  1. Limited Sharpen Faster
  2. BlindDeHalo AVS
  3. Soothe AVS
  4. BlindDeHalo 3 AVS

Update :

I just noticed that i have BlindDeHalo3 script when i’m doing some cleaning, without doubt i tested it right away and the results is :

Ah My Goddess Full Post Processing

 

Yep with BlindDeHalo3 script i can use them both at the same time without stuttering, i also added another script called Soothe script which is made by Didée

    Are you sure you have the screenshots referenced correctly?

    The ones with BlindDeHalo you asy you like them better, but the screenshots look like crap – they’re all blurry…
