InsaneAA Anti-Aliasing Script (VS port)

Original idea by tonik & tophf, edited and ported by DJATOM. Use this script to fix ugly upscaled anime BDs.

Processing chain:

  1. extract luma from clip;
  2. apply Descale to it;
  3. resize luma with Spline36 for smooth edges;
  4. merge "smooth" clip with Descale clip according to descale_strength;
  5. re-upscale it back to 1080p (or clip's original resolution) using eedi3+nnedi3 method;
  6. merge rescaled clip with source clip using lines mask. This should prevent noise and textures distortion;
  7. combine merged clip with color planes.

Prerequisites:

Basic usage:

import insaneAA
insaneAA.insaneAA(clip, external_aa=None, external_mask=None, faster_aa=False, eedi3_mode=insaneAA.EEDI3Mode.CPU, eedi3_device=-1, eedi3_opt=0, nnedi3_mode=insaneAA.NNEDI3Mode.NNEDI3, nnedi3_device=-1, nnedi3_opt=0, descale_strength=0.3, kernel='bilinear', bicubic_b=1/3, bicubic_c=1/3, lanczos_taps=3, descale_width=None, descale_height=720, pscrn=1, alpha=0.2, beta=0.25, gamma=1000.0, nrad=2, mdis=20, nsize=0, nns=4, output_mode=insaneAA.ClipMode.FULL, input_mode=insaneAA.ClipMode.FULL)
  • external_aa: if clip is passed, will use it instead of making rescale.
  • external_mask: pass external lines mask. Non-clip input will be ignored.
  • faster_aa: slightly different upscaling routine, proposed by ZASTIN. Sometimes might produce worse results. But indeed it's faster, yeah.
  • eedi3_mode: string with mode or tuple with two strings representing modes for first and second calls of eedi3.
  • eedi3_device: integer or tuple with two integers representing device IDs for first and second calls of eedi3.
  • eedi3_opt: Controls eedi3 opt related options. You can pass single value or tuple with two values for separated opt on the instances. Passed value should be int type.
  • nnedi3_mode: string with mode or tuple with two strings representing modes for first and second calls of nnedi3.
  • nnedi3_device: integer or tuple with two integers representing device IDs for first and second calls of nnedi3.
  • nnedi3_opt: Controls nnedi3 opt related options. You can pass single value or tuple with two values for separated opt on the instances. znedi3 expects string, classic nnedi3 - int, nnedi3cl ignores passed value.
  • descale_strength: strength of mixing between descaled clip and Spline36 clip (for AA purposes). More strengh means more haloes, keep that in mind.
  • kernel: descaling kernel. Use getnative.py for determining native resolution and try various kernels to find the best suitable.
  • descale_height/descale_width: once you know native resolution, set descale_height. descale_width is almost useless, script will guess descaling width automatically. But you can set it, lol.
  • lanczos_taps: lanczos options for Descale.
  • pscrn: nnedi3's prescreener for faster operation.
  • alpha: eedi3's alpha.
  • beta: eedi3's beta.
  • gamma: eedi3's gamma.
  • nrad: eedi3's nrad.
  • mdis: eedi3's mdis.
  • output_mode: 1 - only rescale (GRAY), 2 - linemasked rescale (GRAY), 0 - linemasked rescale + untouched colors. This option useful for, say, processing all clip into lossless file and masking high resolution details later or for importing filtered luma into avisynth.
  • input_mode: 1 - expect output_mode=1 like GRAY csp upscale. Anything else will skip applying lines mask.

Please do something with FullHD captions, credits on OP/ED, etc! At least mask it or somehow exclude from processing. This script makes lines only worse there.
