>What are normal values for not-moved, moved, and >new? It depends entirely on your video. There are no normal values. In general, one should watch the numbers coming from y4mdenoise, and then look at the original video, and based on that, tweak the -z/-Z/-t/-T threshold parameters to match what you would expect it to find on that particular video. >(I get 4 lines for a given frame, presumably the >two interlaced fields times the two domains (Y >and CrCb)) Indeed, that is what you're seeing. y4mdenoise's verbose output looks like this: Frame A: BB.B% not-moved, CC.C%+DD.D% moved, EE.E%+FF.F% new A is the frame number, repeated for each field and for each component of the video (i.e. Y and CbCr). B is the percentage of pixels found in the zero-motion pass (i.e. the -z/-Z options). C is the percentage of pixels found in the motion-searching pass for which the found region had a zero motion vector. D is the percentage of pixels found in the motion-searching pass for which the found region had a non-zero motion vector. (The relation between B and C should give you additional info for how well you chose values for -z/-Z/-t/-T.) E is the percentage of pixels found to be new information during the motion-searching pass, using a heuristic that tends to speed up results for scene-changes and other times when there is very little repeated information between two frames. F is the percentage of pixels found to be new information at the end of the frame, when all analysis is completed. As soon as I can figure out how to explain all that simply, I'll put it into the manpage :-) Steven Boswell ulatekh at yahoo dot com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
