Everything works fine for me.

Download the indicated 64-bit MEGUI. Accept all updates. Put your license file in with DGIndexNV.exe. Make sure you have Avisynth 64-bit.

Here's where you may have gone wrong. The script creator filters tab will remain grayed until you load your file in the I/O tab. So load the source file, select File Indexer and let the job complete. Then you can access the filters tab.

You'll be happy to see that you get updated to a 2017 64-bit version of MEGUI.

If you want to use the new IVTC, denoising and sharpening filters in DGSource, you'll have to update the DG tools from my latest distribution, and make your script by hand without the script creator (which doesn't support the new filters). In general I advise always writing your own scripts to have total control. Just make your script and load the AVS file directly in the main MEGUI screen.

I even managed to get 64-bit x265 encoding to work. You have to replace one file that I can give you if you need x265.

MeGUI x64 had been discontinued some years ago but it has been continued again ~half a year ago.

To be honest I have not checked in the last ~2 years which kind of new functionalities are available :-(

It should work also if you enable x265 in the MeGUI settings. It is still disabled by default. Maybe time to enable it by default.

Hello Zathor,

What a great honor to have you pay us a visit!

DGDecNV has some great new fast CUDA filters integrated.

Rgegarding the x265 support, clicking the button wasn't enough. You seem to be invoking a 32-bit version of avs4x26x.exe. I had to replace it with a 64-bit version.

Rock on, Zathor!

Thank you very much for your kind words :oops:
I have to return them to you, too. You are doing a great job :)

Regarding the avs4x26x - yes, that is a very good catch. I had uploaded the wrong version... it is now fixed (and x265 is always enabled).

And I have to check out the new filters. I work currently mainly with DGDecIM as my server has no Nvidia graphics card installed. But my coding laptop (I know no support from you :-)) has a nvidia graphics card included.

Updating Megui, I have an issue with eac3to
Error: Old version of eac3to could not be accessed correctly. Check if it is in use. Acceso denegado a la ruta de acceso 'opusdec.avx.exe'.
Error: Could not install module 'eac3to'.
Error: Failed to install package eac3to: Backup file cannot be created.
Error: Packages which have not been successfully updated: 1

Any idea of what is going wrong ?

This was done from the following:

A m2ts of 4 minutes length

AS you can see, there is a HUGE difference since this is only a 4 minutes sample.
I will do a test with the same specs with a whole movie but seeing this, I think we already a clear idea of what is going to happen.
Thanks again to Zathor, Donald and Gonca for your work, patience and precious help ;)

The first part of your post appears to reverse the x86/x64 results. It's good to see some improvement with x64, but be aware the difference is not expected to be large.

Regarding the eac3to thing. Try to delete the eac3to and opus folders in tools. Then open the update screen and make sure both are enabled. Then update.

Hope you don't mind me putting my 2cents in, but the gains from a full x64 chain is +/- 10% for CPU bound tools.
You can, however, lose a potential bunch of filters/tools which are strictly x86.
If you use DGtools x64 your gains would be larger because the filters are being run by the GPU freeing up the CPU for other tasks

I'm glad you are happy. Happiness is a good thing, highly recommended.

BTW, I took the liberty to correct your spelling of DGIndexNV, because you were calling it DGVindexNV. Also, when referring to the complete package, the correct name is DGDecNV.
