Ok ... will stick to imagemagick then since I work on RGB or sequence of TIFF files of film frames. Denoising needs to be done before color correction and since I have either 8 or 16 bits TIFF files, I might as well use what all the data before reducing to the YUV colorspace

Question 2 :
- yuv4mpegpipe is a YUV-only output format.
- I strongly doubt that hqdn3d is able to process RGB data. I didn't find any 
clear information about that for ffmpeg, but avisynth's port of hdqn3d 
processes only YUV video (http://akuvian.org/src/avisynth/hqdn3d/hqdn3d.txt).
- the only filters I know that are able to denoise RGB video are working with 
avisynth (see http://www.aquilinestudios.org/avsfilters/spatiotemp.html)
- but, in the last command you provide as an example, you finally end up with 
YUV-family video (dnxhd), so is there really much point in denoising RGB ?

Question 1 :
I compared different denoisers, only in the YUV colorspace family. The best 
(but slower) ones work inside avisynth :
     speed<--------------------->  quality
    hqdn3d<  fft3dfilter<  mctemporaldenoise
MCTemporalDenoise( preset="Medium" ) does some king of magic on noisy sources.

You can input cinelerra-rendered mov video into avisynth with the QTSource 
external filter.
Since I work almost only with YUV-video, I usually render from cinelerra using the 
"YUV4MPEG Stream" option, piping this stream to mencoder to produce ffvhuff in 
an avi container, and then I process this avi inside avisynth.
