@Dan64: Not totally sure what what you want disabled and thus removed from the HAVC_main call.
Can you make a list of what should be disabled/removed when? (that picture doesn't help at all)

Well there wasn't much to work with. It was first converted from old film years ago to VHS, and now from VHS to digital. I wish I still had the old film.

Sorry, to say this, but the bitrate is way too low or my taste given the source.
Ideally, the during digitalization a lossless file should have been created.
Maybe first cleaning up the source, creating an intermediate file and trying to colorize that is a better approach. (doing everything in one job will take ages)
Also, I would probably not use Deolidfy on the whole clip, autowhite and some denoising seem not that bad:

also try with adding:

Code:
import muvsfunc

# requires colorformat YUV420P8

core.std.LoadPlugin(path="%FILTERPATH%/Support/libmedian.dll")

clip = muvsfunc.Cdeblend(input=clip,omode=2,xr=4,yr=4)

in a custom section.

The concept is that the exemplar-base models can be enable/disabled by using the check box Exemplar-based models.

It is not possible to do it with picture based models.

When are selected the methods:

3 = external RF same as video
4 = external RF different from video
5 = external ClipRef same as video
6 = external ClipRef different from video

the pictures-based models can be disabled becaused are not used for coloring the movie, because the source of the colors is external.

So when are selected the methods: 3, 4, 5, 6 the following parameters are not used by HAVC_main:

Preset -> Speed
ColorModel -> Coloring
CombMethod -> Combine
VideoTune -> Stabilize
ColorFix -> Color tweaks

and the related widget on the GUI can be disabled.

They can be (re)enabled when:

Exemplar Models box is unchecked

or

Method in: 0, 1, 2.

Let me know if you need additional information.

Thanks,
Dan

Will look into that tomorrow.
Reordering the GUI might be a good idea then too.

Deoldify does well on most areas, but it really struggles with red, everything I run thru it gets rid of red, greens also seem to be a little struggle.

I guess I could cut up the video into sections that Deoldify can handle, then put them all back together. But I have a handful of old films to run thru so it would take a while.

Try these LUTs

@Dan64: new GUI will probably look like:

(that's only a quick mockup, depending on whether 'Exemplar Method' is enabled and what is selected gui elements would be en-/disabled... argh, should be sleeping,..)
Cu Selur

Please keep the previous GUI, for me was more clear.
Moreover I already taken all the screenshots for the documentation...

Dan

P.S.
I'm planning to release HAVC 5.0 in GitHub tomorrow.

EDIT: if is not possible to implement the requirement without change the GUI, please don't implement it, is not strictly necessary.

I can leave the GUI as is, but I think changing it to better show the connections seems like a good idea.
Cu Selur

yes, please don't change the GUI.
There is the User Guide which provides all the information needed to use the filter with the GUI settings

Thanks,
Dan
