Deoldify Vapoursynth filter

Please revert to the previous version, now "Reference frames only" is always disabled 
The previous version was working perfectly and I cannot re-test every time all the features.

Doh, the "ScFrameDir isn't empty." restriction is too much, since ScFrameDir is disabled for method 0 unless "Reference frames only" is enabled.
Updated Hybrid_deoldify.

Wow! I think that with this version the migration to HAVC 5.0 is completed.

The project started in February last year, and one year is passed since then.

At that time I never imagined that the project would expand so much.

Now in HAVC are implemented 4 picture-based models and 3 exemplar-based models.

I think that Hybrid is the only software with a full suite of coloring models available today.

I thank you very much for your support, for your patience and for the fantastic interface you have developed for HAVC.

Thanks!

Bravo to this project and all the hard work that was put into it.  I never thought that Superbowl Sunday will be upstaged, I stand corrected.

I'm trying out the Deoldify on some old film from the 60's I'm trying to cleanup. The problem I'm having as the film quality and colors vary a bit. With some areas it looks good, but others it seems to have issues with red, completely removing, or changing green to blue. Any thoughts on settings to improve on it, I've tweaked a lot of the settings, but can't seem to get that red back? As it is it's better then original even with the sections it struggles with.

You can see here the red spire is no longer red and one of the green ones is also changed.
   
This one looks ok, but the green grass area now looks like water and the red-ish post got washed out
   
It did well with this one.
   

Thanks

Personally, I wouldn't use deoldify on such a clip at all. (just from the screenshot)
But maybe using the source are reference one could 'fix' color problems.
Dan64 might know a way, but will probably need a sample to suggest anything.

It is difficult to understand the problems in your clip.

Try to use the Hybrid’s filter Auto white in Vapoursynth->Color->Auto white.

If is not working, please provide a small sample.

"Auto white" or "Grayworld" and https://openmodeldb.info/models/1x-BleedOut-Compact might help would be my approaches just from the image.
