What is the best filter I should use in this specific case?
I have some files, and I want to reduce their size to 99MB exactly (I use x264 2pass), usually the files are in 720p and average 400~500MB.
I would like to remove the noise to exactly the same as it is in this image below: (left as I want, right is how my encode is coming out). Can anyone tell me which noise filter I should use? |

Bitrate is too low and hence you are getting visible macroblocks in encoded footage.

You may try MDegrain filter

And how do you expect to get decent quality at that file size. !!! I would strongly suggest using some SMDegrain pre or sub filter. Check this out:- https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=182881 |

take note that the file on the left which I want to get to the same filter, was also encoded at 99mb. Last edited by retaining1; 10th October 2022 at 23:56. |

But it looks like the "original" is pretty bad quality to start with Not too much you can do with that.. |

With which x264 settings is that? default?
I think x264 psy-rd could cause such blocking and does not work well at low rates. Have you tried with "--tune ssim" or even "--tune psnr" for getting rid of the little blocks? Maybe increase deblock to 1:1 or 2:2 ? |
