I have those stationary stripes on a recording in overexposed areas in video footage.

How could I clean these areas by either blurring those specific parts or replacing every stripe with the surrounding color?

You can try some morphology filters.

Also you can search this forum - the problem of straight lines was discussed few times.

Thanks andrew. Which keywords lead me to the threads mentioned?

I tried the

Code: Select all

            Erosion filter = new Erosion();
            // apply the filter
            filter.Apply(image);

even

Code: Select all

            short[,] se = new short[,] {
                { 0, 1, 0 },
                {  0,  0,  0 },
                { 1, 1, 1 }
            };

            Erosion filter = new Erosion(se);
            // apply the filter
            filter.Apply(image);

Yet it seems to do nothing to the image...

Quite discouraging. Currently I am trying with blobs.
