Interesting. I guess I could take ~10 hours and redo the one movie
that I did yesterday to see if I can spot the difference.

AH, ok. That makes a lot more sense.

It does soften it of course but I guess "a lot" is subjective. Seemed
strange though that the documentation mentions 'sharpening' as a side
effect. If I use the medianfilter then I leave out the -N to mpeg2enc
and the resulting DVDs usually end up around 4500 to 5000 kbits/sec
(right where I want it). The effect of the medianfilter is quite
pleasing, seems that many of the captures I do look a bit
'sharp/harsh' and filtering improves the appearance (that's
subjective of course). As you mention it works great for 'impulse'
noise - such as movies that have spots/speckles.
Sounds like an interesting area of research but alas it's not my
area of expertise either.
Cheers,
Steven Schultz
