Need Help with jaggy lines

[Believer]

Hi guys,

I am new here.

Two Things i wanna ask.

1)How to fix jaggy lines of anime clip attached herewith.

2) I cant able to find scunet and basic vsr++ in hybrid installed in vs filters section. why?

[Selur]

Regarding 1: those are dow crawlers, try DeCrawl->LUTDECrawl
With default settings:

try tweaking the settings.

Regarding 2: BasicVSR++ requires you to install the torch-addon. SCUNet is available through the torch- and the vs-mlrt-addon. => you need to install the addons to use these. (both addons are way to large to ship them directly with Hybrid)

Side note: the file extension on that file wrong. It's not a .mp4, but a .mkv file, feeding Hybrid mislabed files might cause problems.

[Believer]

Sorry my mistake. Changed the extension to. mp4 because i couln't able to upload here. Forgot to change back before adding to rar.

Thanks.
LUTDECrawl helps.
Any other suggestions to clean the video and to stop video shaking.
Can you guide me how to install addon. Is there any separate thread?

Selur sir please help me.

How to fix unstable lines and color bleeding marked in below image.

Clip also added.

Read the README.md in the GoogleDrive share.

For both clips:
To reduce shaking, use Stab with range=3 and crop after that to get rid of black bars, Stab added to compensate for the movement.
(2 pixels at top and left worked fine here)
There is also some distortion in the lower quarter of the image sometimes, which you probably won't get rid of.
I would also add sRestore with Frate=23.976 (and Omode=6) to get rid of some of the ghostings.

Santiag can help with the aliasing.
aWarpSharp with Chroma on chroma planes only should help with the chroma bleed. Alternatively 1x_BleedOut_Compact_300k_net_g either through VSGAN or vsMLRT for the color bleed.
Depending on your liking, you can also add BasicVSR++ (maybe just masked to filter the edges)
I would also add DeHalo_Alpha to get rid of most of the white halos.
Note that is you filtering this way is slow.

Additionally, using something like SMDeGrain or TemporalDegrain with DCT=1 might additionally help to stabilize the image.

Fixed that yesterday iirc. either redownload the torch addon or open an admin terminal inside the Vapoursynth folder and call:

python -m vsbasicvsrpp

to fix it.

Error coming even after reinstalling hybrid and replacing VS folder.

You did use: VapoursynthR70_torch_2025.01.30.7z right? (that is the updated torch where this should be fixed,..)
