[@Oldman_Gamer2]

No, YOU'RE doing it wrong!!! Optix temporal denoise since Blender 3.1 is amazing for animations, more people should be talking about it! No one seems to have tested it because there is no documentation. I got this far: Set render output to EXR_Multilayer; turn on vector and denoise_data layers and render an animation. Then open up python console and enter: bpy.ops.cycles.denoise_animation() It goes through each saved image file for each frame (so its best to test with just a few frames), and overwrites the layer "View Layer.Combined.RGB" with a denoised version. (I think you have to have an RTX card, Optix as the Cycles Renderer in System settings, and turn denoise on in render tab, select Optix, then turn off again - I don't know if all this is necessary, but when I initially tried with Cuda selected in system settings, and OpenImageDenoise in render tab, bpy.ops.cycles.denoise_animation() worked, but the results were poor. So I did everything I could to ensure Optix was being used, not any other denoiser, and got much better results. Open the EXR image sequence in Davinci Resolve, go to Fusion page, and on the MediaIn node, choose the layer RenderLayer.Combined.

[@arcticbarbarian]

Great video! You explain things very well. I'm excited to watch your other videos.

[@kooale3252]

actually this is also wrong since superimagedenoise exists which basically denoises each layer on its own and combines them back. Way better than the actual denoise node and preserves tons of texture details

I have blender 2.79 i can't get this node what i have to do ?

[@random3rsifO_O]

So now I ran into this issue, when I render the image, my image looks like tin foil and doesn't even look right anymore, would post a link here but don't wanna get taken down...

[@BlenderDojo]

Hey, whenever my images look like tin foil even if I'm denoising it's probably because I am using another denoiser on top of the compositor denoiser or I don't have my other inputs plugged in to my denoiser. Make sure the denoise box is unchecked in the "Render Properties" tab and in the view layer properties be sure to enable "denoising data" then in the compositor. Then enable use nodes in compositing and add in a denoising node. Then hook up image normal and albedo to their respective inputs on the denoising node.

[@random3rsifO_O]

[@andrewmccarty]

Should you not use the "Noisy Image" output for the denoise node? I noticed you just used the regular "Image" output.

[@BlenderDojo]

Hi! I had a similar question in another comment, here's what I found "I found this link with some info that states for more general purposes that the "image" input is actually preferred blender.stackexchange.com/questions/173760/how-to-properly-connect-the-denoise-node-in-compositor "

[@Jasonwalkertube]

​. Thank you so much. Was wondering which one I should use.

[@razern420]

NICE MY GUY , I THOUGH I WASTED MY TIME RENDERING 695 PNG IMAGES , WITH UR HELP IT WORKS MUAH (NO HOMO)

[@troyl44]

why do people use the denoising node at all? Why dont you just check the box under your samples? Am i missing something?

[@AlisonReidMe]

Hi, I hope you read comments, I have a quick question. In the compositor, you connect the Render Result "Image" dot to the Denoiser "Image" dot. Shouldn't you be connecting from the "Noisy Image" dot instead?

[@JT11111]

So how do one do this for videos, im not gonna do this fopr every single frame of the animation

[@FinnbarrGoesFast]

So after we add the denoising node and hook it up to the correct inputs, we can uncheck the box for OpenImageDenoise?

[@BlenderDojo]

yes, you're denoising your image twice if you don't uncheck

[@hugoantunesartwithblender]

How do i denoise multiple images in the same compositor (using sample offset of blender 3.1)?

[@BlenderDojo]

Great question! I wouldn't know as I don't even know what sample offset is. I'll play around with it tomorrow and hopefully come back with an answer, if not a video :)

[@hugoantunesartwithblender]

@@BlenderDojo kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4q9fJiBac59qpY this minute. Is a new feature of blender 3.1 that basicly lets you make a personal renderfarm witouth add ons. I made a not setup to add the results togheter, dont know if is optimal. BUt this morning i got the idea of comparing 250 +250 samples result with the 500 samples result using the difference node (any difference will show a color)

[@HaloWolf102]

Uhh, my Render Layer has 3 options: 'Image' 'Alpha' 'Depth'. There are no extra options to put into anything...

hi! make sure to turn on "denoising data" under render layers. then your extra options should pop up

Hi there brother Nice trick, I have a question, when i always render out animation with cycle, it doing wired flickering on the evey material in the video, Have you got a idea how to fix it My spec is i5, 4gb 1650 GTX ,

[@letslearn8896]

what is your render resolution because when i zoom my render like you are zooming it breaks my resolution quality so what to do for that is there any hack

[@지훈-x3q]

I put diffuse color in albedo. In many cases it shows better results.

[@dinoboyX]

14:12 the final was the best. thanks

[@LiminalLo-fi]

If you are doing animation this method probably will not work for you and leave you crying after months of trying to figure out why you cant get stable light, shadows, and textures from this basic method. The answer: temporal denoising and median denoising. Good luck!

[@alifadhil5377]

I can not find this option in blender 3.0.0!

[@telisto]

What about denoising animations?

[@ramalshebl60]

can i use denoise node WITH openimagedenoiser?

[@playbyan1453]

denoise option in rendering already handles stuff like on the video, if you want controls make sure denoise option is disabled and use compositor and follow the steps explained on the video.

I'm at 3060, I don't know why my scene still looks trash with this noise..

[@BruceCarbonLakeriver]

I'm still not sure which one is OIDIN wnd which one is NLM? I used to use the denoising node in the compositor but at animations everything gets messed up. Then I used the denoiser I've found on the right side on the render settings and setting it to accurate and albedo + normals. This works better, I suspect it is OIDIN :)

Hey there, how does it works for an animated render?

[@BlenderDojo]

hi! it works the exact same for an animated render, as blender passes the image through the compositor each frame

[@Honey-qp6ti]

Hello. You know, what my problem is. My laptop has a 1660 ti, but my animation renders are quite complex with a lot of refraction etc and a sandy floor with stones. So I have to render it on a render farm, which does not allow opti x. So if I denoise it later, the sand texture disappears. If I render it myself with optix, it looks great, but due to a windows 10 update, I take 3 times longer to render on my laptop, then myself through the farm ^^ Is there a way to denoise afterwords and keep the sand texture?

[@Jasonwalkertube]

I don't even have a graphics card in my Laptop. I've been using Google Colap to render. Usually get a couple hours a day of access to a T4. Don't know if this is a good idea but it's atleast 10 X faster for me. Never used a render farm.

[@rennightmare]

Hello! So i ve some question left, is it like its always better to set up denoise in the compositor rather than turning it on in render properties panel?

[@BlenderDojo]

in my experience, yes. I've heard others say it's better to use other methods, but the composite denoise node works the best in the cases I've seen and is the easiest to set up for me

[@AshT8524]

Good one! Cheers

[@Dina_tankar_mina_ord]

I have a feeling that you make this wrong on purpose to get more traffic. But if not go to View layer properties and turn on denoising data That will add options on the compositing node tree that will make you activate the denoising normal, albedo and noisy image.

[@BlenderDojo]

10:27 Shown right here! With the release of blender 3.0 the "noisy image" socket is gone too and the denoise node only has "image" "normal" and "albedo" for input sockets. I'm not intentionally doing anything wrong to get more traffic but if you have a deeper understanding that I may have missed feel free to help me out!
