Well, I tried to attach both mp4 results for comparison, but the forum limitations won't let me. I can send them to you by WeTransfer if you wish.
I use 12 seconds scenes and on average 6 reference frames for that. Especially with one reference frame (attached) the colours stay vibrant in DeepEx for the rest of the video whereas with ColorMNet only that specific frame looks good, but all subsequent frames lose all their splendor and are washed out.
Sorry, but I don't know Python so these scripts don't help me.
I am making a ca. 30 minute video about the London Blitz, so with about 900 reference frames (1 every 50 frames) I hope that should be enough. It will cost me 2 weeks to do (for my Rick88888888 Youtube channel). Colorizing every frame with Google Gemini is already a big drama: Nano Banana is very quirky and ignores prompts 70% of the time and often creates fantasized crap, despite properly formulated prompts (made with the help of Gemini itself).
Here is such a prompt:
"Apply P1 protocol: Perform a Static Chromatic Overlay only. Use 100% saturation and vibrant hues. CRITICAL INHIBITION: Disable all generative filling, object completion, and texture synthesis. Do not modify, add, or 'improve' any shapes or pixels. Execute a direct 1:1 color-to-pixel mapping of the original frame only. Immediate action, zero commentary."
Thank you very much for helping me. I am very pleased that you are working so hard on your Vapoursynth colorization filter.
