Mazze September 5, 2016 Share September 5, 2016 Tiffen works quite fast. Also can recommend BorisFX (Continuum and RED). Works pretty solid and fast. However, 99% of the time, people use OFX to either - denoise - timewarp - apply grain Everything else I've seen only rarely being used. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites

Dylan R. Hopkin September 8, 2016 Share September 8, 2016 Neat Video is king for NR, but since I´ve begun using Resolve 12.5 Studio, I am using Neat less, since Resolve has a improved NR. The built-in NR is real time in many cases, depending on your hardware, and it render caches quickly if needed. Film Convert is also cool, mainly for film grain but Resolve 12.5 Studio has got built-in Film Grain now, so if this does a good job, then I will most probably start using the built in solution instead. Film Convert also includes the possibility to mix in "film color" and "film curves" to create a quick "filmstock" look. But defaults seldom work, so it needs some tweaking in conjunction with your normal grading tools. / Dylan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites
Abby Bader September 9, 2016 Share September 9, 2016 Great insight @Dylan R. Hopkin! I like to keep it clean, and I prefer not to use plugins unless I need to. I remember the first versions of Resolve and how slow the NR was. I haven't gotten into the feature since the original version because it gave such a bad impression. The feature was überslow and made the system crash every time. It could be quite interesting if BMD could make grain that can compete with the real grain plates out there.

Paul Dore December 7, 2016 Share December 7, 2016 Since the release of Resolve 12.5 it is possible to compile custom OFX plugins specifically for the software. The DCTL option is a quicker and easier approach to custom scripting (and an excellent one at that), but when adjustable parameters are required you'll need OFX. Given the potential for open source expansion (and emulation of features present in other software), I'm a bit surprised it hasn't become a bigger deal. Perhaps it will in time. I've put together a few examples. Most are both CUDA and OpenCL compliant. The plugins are for Mac OSX, but the source files for compiling on other platforms are included, plus the DCTLs work cross-platform (Studio version). https://github.com/baldavenger http://liftgammagain.com/forum/index.php?threads/dctls-and-resolve-ofx.7046/ 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites

Daniel Peter Moretti January 25, 2017 Share January 25, 2017 (edited) Paul, are those free open source plugins for Resolve? I extracted them and copied each *.ofx file into C:\Program Files\Common Files\OFX\Plugins I also tried copying the folders *.ofx.bundle into the ...OFX\Plugins folder. But I don't see them in the Color Page's OFX Library folder. Edited January 26, 2017 by Daniel Peter Moretti 1 Link to comment Share on other sites
