So I've managed to reduce the noise using a convoluted method. You guys who have programming skills can probably automate/integrate this whole process. You will need Adobe Photoshop CC, or Photoshop CS6 Extended, or any earlier version of photoshop that supports the Smart Object Stack Mode(s). Note that some versions such as CS6 Standard featured a bug that showed the Stack Mode option in the menu, but it was actually disabled and could not be used in the standard version.
Although the final image will be much better than any image or still from a video from the Seek, you must manage your expectations, as this really just removes the noise and does not improve sharpness etc. It is also time consuming.
1. Start recording a video and setup Seek camera in a tripod or on something stable. You can only record stationary scenes and any moving objects will end up blurred / blended, so it's best if everything is stationary.
2. Leave it alone for ~3 to 5 minutes. We are trying to capture many shutter events after which the noise pattern will change, they usually happen every 2 to 10 seconds.
3. Stop recording and put file on computer.
4. Follow this guide (
https://www.isimonbrown.co.uk/vlc-export-frames/) to use VLC media player to save its output as images. In step 7, set the value to something between 60 and 90; given the framerate of the video is 14 fps, this works out to be several seconds and enough for 1 or 2 shutter events to have taken place. For the example below, I used a value of 60 on a roughly 5 minute video and ended up with 64 usable images. You could also use VirtualDub to export the frames. (You can choose to output every single frame of the video however this will greatly increase processing (CPU) time of later steps.)
5. Go to the folder it exported the images to. You have to delete those at the start and end which are not spatially aligned with the bulk of the rest. eg. when you moved the camera to start/top recording.
6. Open images in Windows Photo Viewer or your application of choice and hold whichever shortcut scans rapidly through the images (eg, Right arrow key) to ensure they are all aligned
7. Open one of the versions of Photoshop listed above. Go File -> Scripts -> Load Files into Stack
8. Go to Select -> All layers, then, Layer -> Smart Objects -> Convert to Smart object
9. You can now go into the Smart Objects menu and choose the Stacking mode. For the example below I used Mean which is arguably the best.
Alternatively, programs like PhotoAcute that can do stacking / blending and superresolution can achieve the same result, however, these kind of programs tend to require subscriptions / purchases to use them fully. That is why I suggest photoshop and although it too isn't free most people have better access to it.
Below is my computer tower's internals made from 64 stacked images: I will look into using smaller numbers of frames after work tomorrow.
