Out of curiosity, how did you settle on all these different filter
lengths?  

You might even try running y4mspatialfilter before and after y4mdenoise
in case the latter introduces any high-frequency artifacts.

Nominally, raising the "length" parameter (actually the DC group delay
of an infinite-impulse response (IIR) lowpass filter) increases the
amount of filtering done; but if the thresholds aren't also raised what
tends to happen is that yuvdenoise throws out a lot of the filtered
pixels in an attempt to avoid visible artifacts.  So if you have a lot
of motion or really bad noise, raising -l alone won't improve things. 
My "standard" set of values is "-l 1 -t 4","-l 2 -t 6", and "-l 3 -t 8"
for light, medium, and heavy filtering.
