limit

Functions:

  • limit_filter –

    Performs a soft-limiting between two clips to limit the difference of filtering while avoiding artifacts.

limit_filter 

limit_filter(
    flt: VideoNode,
    src: VideoNode,
    ref: VideoNode | None = None,
    dark_thr: float | Sequence[float] = 1.0,
    bright_thr: float | Sequence[float] = 1.0,
    elast: float | Sequence[float] = 2.0,
    planes: Planes = None,
) -> VideoNode

Performs a soft-limiting between two clips to limit the difference of filtering while avoiding artifacts.

Parameters:

  • flt

    (VideoNode) –

    Filtered clip.

  • src

    (VideoNode) –

    Source clip.

  • ref

    (VideoNode | None, default: None ) –

    Reference clip, to compute the weight to be applied on filtering diff.

  • dark_thr

    (float | Sequence[float], default: 1.0 ) –

    Threshold (8-bit scale) to limit dark filtering diff.

  • bright_thr

    (float | Sequence[float], default: 1.0 ) –

    Threshold (8-bit scale) to limit bright filtering diff.

  • elast

    (float | Sequence[float], default: 2.0 ) –

    Elasticity of the soft threshold.

  • planes

    (Planes, default: None ) –

    Planes to process. Defaults to all.

Returns:

  • VideoNode –

    Limited clip.
