I suggest that an image processed the old way with smearing be found and processed with the new beta, as a starting point to look for improvement Gerry. Then compare them side by side, otherwise this whole exercise is a bit like chasing ghosts. Surely someone who has written and complained about the past processing/smearing problems can provide a suitable problem image to use as a proper test.
