[HELP] Film grain appears to be reduced despite not attemping to remove grain or denoise

[PJWong]

Doh, it's so obvious now that I think about, I feel a little silly for being confused earlier!

I appreciate you linking those threads, reading through them helped to put things into perspective.  I've tweaked some QTGMC settings and now things look a lot closer to how I'd like!  I appreciate your help and all the work that you do, Selur!  Cheers!
