Denoise Input — detail-chart, Multiplicative speckle
Multiplicative speckle applied to the detail-chart base plate with seed 9102. Multiplicative rather than additive noise, so its amplitude scales with local brightness — the pattern seen in ultrasound and radar. Additive-noise models systematically under-correct highlights. Paired with the clean ground truth in this group, so denoiser output can be scored numerically. Encoded at CRF 24 rather than 19: random noise is incompressible, and at this amplitude the codec's own artefacts sit far below the noise floor, so a coarser quantiser saves several megabytes without affecting any measurement.

What is a .mp4 file?
MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) is a widely supported multimedia container based on ISOBMFF that holds video, audio, subtitles, and metadata, most commonly H.264 or H.265 video with AAC audio. It supports streaming, chapters, and multiple tracks. It is the dominant format for distributing and playing digital video.
How to use this file
Use an example MP4 to test container demuxing, track and codec detection, seeking and streaming, and transcoding or thumbnail-extraction pipelines.
How to use this file for testing
“Denoise Input — detail-chart, Multiplicative speckle” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Video denoise, Video QA. Clips degraded with documented noise type, sigma, and seed, each shipped beside the exact high-quality source it came from — so a denoiser's output can be scored, not eyeballed.
Documented properties for this file: seed 9102 · denoise input · speckle · 1s · 24 fps. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Media fixtures are short and synthetic by design. Prefer waveform or transcript ground truth in the same group when measuring ASR, trim, upscale, or sync tools; do not assume broadcast-quality masters.

- mp4Denoise Ground Truth — gradient-skyThe clean reference for the gradient-sky denoise set — no noise added, encoded at CRF 14. Every noisy clip in this group was produced from these exact pixels, so PSNR, SSIM and LPIPS against this file are meaningful rather than approximate.
- mp4Denoise Ground Truth — pan-cityThe clean reference for the pan-city denoise set — no noise added, encoded at CRF 14. Every noisy clip in this group was produced from these exact pixels, so PSNR, SSIM and LPIPS against this file are meaningful rather than approximate.
- mp4Denoise Input — gradient-sky, Gaussian σ=15Gaussian σ=15 applied to the gradient-sky base plate with seed 9017. Moderate Gaussian noise, roughly a mid-ISO handheld shot. The level most denoise benchmarks use. Paired with the clean ground truth in this group, so denoiser output can be scored numerically. Encoded at CRF 19, where the light noise could otherwise be confused with compression artefacts.
- mp4Denoise Input — gradient-sky, Gaussian σ=30Gaussian σ=30 applied to the gradient-sky base plate with seed 9034. Heavy Gaussian noise where fine detail and noise overlap in amplitude, so recovery requires temporal information rather than spatial smoothing alone. Paired with the clean ground truth in this group, so denoiser output can be scored numerically. Encoded at CRF 24 rather than 19: random noise is incompressible, and at this amplitude the codec's own artefacts sit far below the noise floor, so a coarser quantiser saves several megabytes without affecting any measurement.
- mp4Denoise Input — gradient-sky, Gaussian σ=5Gaussian σ=5 applied to the gradient-sky base plate with seed 9000. Light sensor noise — the level a modern camera produces at base ISO. Subtle enough that an over-aggressive denoiser does more damage than the noise did. Paired with the clean ground truth in this group, so denoiser output can be scored numerically. Encoded at CRF 19, where the light noise could otherwise be confused with compression artefacts.
- mp4Denoise Input — gradient-sky, Gaussian σ=50Gaussian σ=50 applied to the gradient-sky base plate with seed 9051. Severe noise approaching the signal level. Included as the failure case — most denoisers hallucinate structure here, which is exactly what the paired reference exposes. Paired with the clean ground truth in this group, so denoiser output can be scored numerically. Encoded at CRF 24 rather than 19: random noise is incompressible, and at this amplitude the codec's own artefacts sit far below the noise floor, so a coarser quantiser saves several megabytes without affecting any measurement.
