Deoldify Vapoursynth filter

[Dan64]

I released the RC2 with some small changes:

  1) the limit of max_memory_frames has been increased from 10.000 to 15.000
  2) it was missing a way to disable the Tweaks using the presets. Instead of adding a new parameter, I changed the behaviour of "Color fix" when is set to "none" HAVC_main will disable the Tweaks (i.e. will set the parameter "ddtweak=False" in HAVC_ddeoldify) so when "Color fix" is set to "none" you should uncheck the flag "Tweaks" on the custom section, of course when "Color fix" is not set to "none" the flag "Tweaks" have to be checked.

Thanks,
Dan

P.S.
You could rename "Color fix" in "Color tweaks"

The last dev version 2025.01.11.1 is just amazing, and is working perfectly!

I think that with version 4.6.5 HAVC has finally reached a good level of stability.

Using the approaches described in the chapter "Coloring Using Hybrid" of HAVC User Guide (that will be updated with the release of v.4.6.5)
It is possible to get very stable colors.
Of course it is not possible to get colorful movies with a great variety of colors, this is simple impossible using AI automatic colorizers.

To get colorful movies with a great variety of colors is stll necessary a lot of manual work.
In the chapter "Advanced coloring using adjusted reference frames" included in HAVC User Guide I show how to improve color quality using ColorMNet and manually adjusted reference frames.

An example of movie colored using only ColorMNet with manually adjusted reference frames can be found at the following link.

to color this clip I used some thousands of low resolution reference images and hundreds of images colored manually.
But is an activity time consuming and the AI automatic colorizers has been developed to just avoid this manual activity.

Thanks again for the fantastic work you have done on this version.
