OK and thanks for looking into it.

At a guess, I suppose it also means no gpu HDRAGC ? Or even a hybrid ?

Hope you had a cracker of an Easter, m8! And you ! :D Cheers You'd start with some other source filter, then add the proposed DGFilters() filter. ... here are two advantages: 1) different source filters could be used (while retaining the advantages of CUDASynth), and 2) I wouldn't have to individua...

https://rationalqm.us/misc/before2.jpg While the filter is adaptive over the image, its goal and design is only to bring up dark areas without blowing out bright areas. So it cannot reproduce what my Windowed Histogram filter can produce: https://rationalqm.us/misc/stoneseq.jpg That looks really ni...

hey Rocky i had a thought (i know shocking) couldn't you make a filter that does the whole cudasynth thing with all the filters but without DGSource()? then the sheeple could basically have cudasynth but with a different source filter akshully, Britney mentioned this last night Just wondering, woul...

Cool !

Thank you for the new stuff, looking forward to trying it.

Looks like a winner to me

For interest, how would you characterize those filters vs a HDRAGC ?

edit: understood now. Thanks. I got as far as better measuring elapsed times with powershell powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -Command "Measure-Command {G:\HDTV\DGtest\TEST3-DG\Vapoursynth-x64\VSPipe.exe --filter-time --container y4m G:\HDTV\DGtest\TEST3-DG\00_PostcardsFromMannum_sample-unproc...

I would have expected the plain set_output() of the filtered clip to be faster than the clip which interleaves the filtered clip and the unfiltered clip. The result of ~60% of the fps of the interleaved clip which notionally does more work seems a bit counter-intuitive. That's a massive amount of fp...

OK, I'm a happy camper now. The green frames are gone. The variability in fps has largely disappeared in the case of outputting only the "after" clip. Maybe it's magic, maybe it's Windows, who knows. (The fps variability remains when using stackhorizontal, over separate consecutive runs, but who car...

OK. You have the source file(s). Hope you may be able to do something with the .bat below. Interestingly, - of the cudasynth downloads, TEST6 works (no green frames), TEST7 works (no green frames) - with released v252 both interleave and stackhorizontal yield green tinged frames, both with and witho...

OK, there's something very strange going on and I do not have the iq nor base knowledge to begin to diagnose it. Further to the variability in FPS when denoising https://rationalqm.us/board/viewtopic.php?p=20413#p20413 Referring to the attached .pdf tables of very strange results (filename had to be...

<snip> google can be handy ...

Sounds great. Will it support features like auto gain, auto balance? This filter here http://avisynth.nl/index.php/AutoAdjust is one of the better ones, but it's also a bit broken (no source code) I have wanted a good autolevels/autoadjust for such a long time that I'd forgotten about it :) Anyone ...

Thanks for pointing out the missing dn_enable stuff, m8. I have fixed it. I'll try to answer your fps variation question tomorrow as I am tired after getting 252 out the door and helping Curly with his eac3to release. Plus I just ate a large ribeye and my brain is in a fog. No worries. We'll deserv...

Hello, a "quick" query. Similar to previous tests on VHS videos 0 to 7 in sequence, repeated with various settings. If I use dn_enable=1, dn_quality="best" denoising I see these relatively consistent fps for VHS videos : after_video = core.dgdecodenv.DGSource( r'G:\HDTV\DGtest\RESULTS\00_PostcardsFr...

Well, just a thought ... on something probably in the too hard basket and/or not worth one's while ... A few things seem to depend on motion estimation like the venerable mvtools2 https://avisynth.org.ru/mvtools/mvtools2.html for example (i) temporal denoising, which you mention above (ii) motion in...

I'm surprised you didn't ask what the root cause was. :) I did wonder, and curiosity nearly got the better of me, however I had enough of those questions in the last 10 working years to choose not to bother you. Suspected you'd needed to brute force it with retries if the cause was not discernible,...

Cool, success, no pop-ups or failed encodings. Thanks ! I ran the 8 encode batch, 10 times in sequence for both "new cudasynth way" and "old multi-line way". Something I don't quite get with the latest test6 ... the speeds for "new cudasynth way" vs "old multi-line way" look close to the "new cudasy...

Some results with the latest test6: Test Run 1: pop-up appeared once (item # unknown), encoded zero frames of it Test Run 2: all completed successfully, no pop-up Test Run 3: all completed successfully, no pop-up Test Run 4: all completed successfully, no pop-up Test Run 5: pop-up appeared once on i...

Oops, a poor assumption on my part on what files pre-existed or not. OK, I popped some files *.qsf.mpg into the "RESULTS" folder in this share: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J8VqHS1sHygqPM2pczlC2kfI_nRWW7x8?usp=sharing The files are the same as the originals except having been fixed where ...

It has nothing to do with cudasynth. I had a pop up ("error creating decoder" ?) appear after reverting to the latest official release. Unfortunately it disappears quickly, so I'll see if I can capture an image of it. Funnily enough, all 8 encodes worked. Realtime Task Manager performance numbers an...

Any results with test5? Yes, test5 yielded a pop-up on run #2 6 of 8. Hopefully I did it right. I tend to find I may need to run the test a number of times since it seems to run successfully a few times in a row. Running it again with nothing running in the background ... Interestingly, something n...

OK. In this share is - a .zip of portable vapoursynth with portable python and ffmpeg and DG stuff in 'G:\HDTV\DGtest\Vapoursynth-x64\DGIndex' - a folder of VHS test .mpg files https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J8VqHS1sHygqPM2pczlC2kfI_nRWW7x8?usp=sharing Create a folder `G:\HDTV\DGtest` and -...

Sure. Just re-downloaded test5 and popped it into the right place and am re-running the tests now. Will zip up the other things and pop it into a google drive shared folder for you. I will comment out extraneous stuff such as mediainfo and whatnot. edit: hmm, test5 yielded a pop-up on run #2 6 of 8....

Please re-download test 6 and give it a whirl. Cool. I just tried the VHS tests where a .bat runs through 8 files n sequence, generating a new .vpy each time and then using vspipe/ffmpeg to attempt an encode. Nearly. This time run #1 it did not like 3 of 8 pop-up4.jpg run #2 all 8 successfully enco...
