bilateral ¶
bilateral(
clip: VideoNode,
ref: VideoNode | None = None,
sigmaS: float | Sequence[float] | None = None,
sigmaR: float | Sequence[float] | None = None,
backend: Backend = CPU,
**kwargs: Any
) -> ConstantFormatVideoNode
Applies a bilateral filter for edge-preserving and noise-reducing smoothing.
This filter replaces each pixel with a weighted average of nearby pixels based on both spatial distance and pixel intensity similarity. It can be used for joint (cross) bilateral filtering when a reference clip is given.
Example:
blurred = bilateral(clip, ref, 3.0, 0.02, backend=bilateral.Backend.CPU)

flux_smooth ¶
flux_smooth(
clip: VideoNode,
temporal_threshold: float | Sequence[float] = 7.0,
spatial_threshold: float | Sequence[float] | None = None,
scalep: bool = True,
) -> ConstantFormatVideoNode
FluxSmoothT examines each pixel and compares it to the corresponding pixel in the previous and next frames. Smoothing occurs if both the previous frame's value and the next frame's value are greater, or if both are less than the value in the current frame.
Smoothing is done by averaging the pixel from the current frame with the pixels from the previous and/or next frames, if they are within temporal_threshold.
FluxSmoothST does the same as FluxSmoothT, except the pixel's eight neighbours from the current frame are also included in the average, if they are within spatial_threshold.
The first and last rows and the first and last columns are not processed by FluxSmoothST.
Parameters:
-
clip
¶VideoNode
) –Clip to process.
-
temporal_threshold
¶float | Sequence[float]
, default:7.0
) –Temporal neighbour pixels within this threshold from the current pixel are included in the average. Can be specified as an array, with values corresonding to each plane of the input clip. A negative value (such as -1) indicates that the plane should not be processed and will be copied from the input clip.
-
spatial_threshold
¶float | Sequence[float] | None
, default:None
) –Spatial neighbour pixels within this threshold from the current pixel are included in the average. A negative value (such as -1) indicates that the plane should not be processed and will be copied from the input clip.
-
scalep
¶bool
, default:True
) –Parameter scaling. If set to true, all threshold values will be automatically scaled from 8-bit range (0-255) to the corresponding range of the input clip's bit depth.
Returns:
-
ConstantFormatVideoNode
–Smoothed clip.

clip: VideoNode,

planes: PlanesT = None,
**kwargs: Any
) -> ConstantFormatVideoNode
Combines binomial (Gaussian-like) blur and median filtering for a balanced smoothing effect.
This filter blends the input clip with both a binomial blur and a median blur to achieve a "best of both worlds" result — combining the edge-preserving nature of median filtering with the smoothness of Gaussian blur. The effect is somewhat reminiscent of a bilateral filter.

Parameters:
-
clip
¶VideoNode
) –Source clip.
-
radius
¶int | Sequence[int]
, default:1
) –Radius of blur to apply. Can be a single int or a list for per-plane control.
-
mode
¶tuple[ConvMode, ConvMode]
, default:(HV, SQUARE)
) –A tuple of two convolution modes: - First element: mode for binomial blur. - Second element: mode for median blur. Defaults to (HV, SQUARE).
-
planes
¶PlanesT
, default:None
) –Planes to process. Defaults to all.
-
kwargs
¶Any
, default:{}
) –Additional arguments passed to the binomial blur.
Returns:
-
ConstantFormatVideoNode
–Clip with MinBlur applied.
