[HELP] New to Hybrid, trying to figure some things out...

[Selur]

Another problem I ran into this morning is that whenever I select any of the De-Halo filters, something breaks in the script and I can't run them - it says "expected 'else' after 'if' expression (dehalo.py)". There is some serious Haloing in the footage that will need to be addressed, but I didn't get into troubleshooting this earlier.

Replace dehalo.py with https://github.com/Selur/VapoursynthScri.../dehalo.py

The general steps are correct.
MLDegrain, MC Temporal Denoise are rather heavy hitters, depending on the source using for example SMDegrain with higher SAD/-C might work too.
Would need a short sample of the source to suggest something. Depending on your setup using machine learning based filters might also be possible.
