TimeLapseDF filter for Avisynth 2.5

TimeLapseDF filter to remove luminosity flicker occurred in Time Lapse photography. Please read documentation before use.

The reason of creating this filter was simple - the existing flicker-removing filters sometimes do not work for Time Lapse photography well. Most of them are designed to remove flicker for old movies projected and then recorded from the projection screen at a different frame rate. During my short investigation I found that open source filters use "average frame luminosity" to compare the frames. The "average frame luminosity" is only one value between 0 and 255. Using only one value to evaluate frame luminosity seems for me like using "average temperature in a hospital including morgue" and trying to compare it to another hospital. Will it work well?

This filter is not perfect. It might help you in some situations, but I wouldn't name it "silver bullet". Please fill free to contact author using the forum or email (askden -at- gmail.com) if you have any questions or comments.
