I found NV 2.0 will process the video MUCH better if I do not seperate the interlaced fields before filtering. I just leave it as is and the filtering is better and it was able to build a better profile without seperating the fields. It took me 74 frames, 1 test at a time to find a profile above 75%...

I'm currently using 2.0 for virtualdub. Should I upgrade to 2.22?

Is there that much of a difference?

Any of my scenes with mountains in the background are smoothed and and very blotchy so I cannot use NV on these scenes. I have messed with all the settings for hours with no success. Lannie PS I have been able to do scenes with grass and trees and it looks pretty good, but the distance mountain scen...

I didnt see where I can do the smaller area selection. Once it's finished processing the scene it's on now I will try and find that and see how it works.

Thanks!

that contradicts your instructions from earlier. If I use the profile from a different scene, then the carpet or grass is blurred out.

To keep that from happening you say I have to profile from that scene which is refuses to do so.

The probolem is, you cannot build a profile. There is not a single frame that the profile works. It always says it cannot find a large uniform area.

Since it is gravel, grass or carpet, it comes out a blurred mess.

Using NV with Virtualdub - ruins carpet or grass in scenes

I'm using NV to clean up 8mm footage I have shot with a DV camera and a projection box I have built. It isnt the best quality but pretty darn good. NV cleans up the footage wonderfully, except when a scene has grass or carpet. It blurs it all into a mush. How can I configure NV to deal with details ...
