How to fix blurry video on Avidemux

[satimis]

- snip -
But I doubt that a reinstallation will solve your issues. Did you try to replace the dgdecode.dll in the avisynth's plugin folder by its 64 bit version as recommended before?

Hi Sharc,

Again

Just download dgdecode.dll (64 bit) on jagabo's posting #83

and extract the DGDecode64bit.zip file as;
DgDecode.txt
DGDecode.dll

AviSynth+ is on Program Files (x86)
(pls refers to screenshot_avisynth+.png)

There are 2 plugins;
plugins64
plugins64+
(please refers to the screenshot_plugin.png attached)

But I couldn't find its old version there ?

On which plugin folder shall I copy DGDecode.dll to ?

Regardsd

[Sharc]

Copy it into both. It doesn't do any harm.

Copy DGDecode.dll to;

2 plugins folders;
plugins64
plugins64+

(remark: I was not allowed to copy DGDecode.dll on the folder. I must move it to the folder therefore I have to decompress its packages twice)

Start VirtualDub2
Drag script.avs on it. Error still popup

(Pls refers to attached screenshot)

Thanks

This looks already better.
In your .avs script (line 18) you have to specify the full path of your .d2v file, like Mpeg2source("...full path..\vob4_ab_01.d2v")

Edit:
In case you don't have the .d2v file already, you have to produce it with DGindex.exe.
Start DgIndex.exe, open your .vob (or .mpg file or whatever mpeg2 format you have), press OK, select File -> Save Project to create the .d2v file.

Is your AVS script in the same folder as the D2V file and the MPG file?

[satimis]

Is your AVS script in the same folder as the D2V file and the MPG file?

AVS script and the D2V file are not in the same folder.
AVS script in Documents folder
D2V file in Downloads folder

I can move them to the same folder

What is MPG file? The .VOB file?

Obviously not. You didn't specify the full path to your .d2v in your script.

Or put everything (.vob, .avs, .d2v) into the same folder

[jagabo]

Or put everything (.vob, .avs, .d2v) into the same folder

And depending on the DgIndex settings you may need to rebuild the d2v after moving the files (the d2v can reference the vob by full path -- you can open the d2v in Notepad to check).

Did you put QTGMC.AVSI in the plugins64+ folder -- and all the third party filters that it requires? See post #36.

Download QTGMC.avsi and copy it to Plugins64+ folder

Error still remains (pls refers to screenshot) Thanks

QTGMC.AVSI is not in your plugins64+ folder. And neither are any of it's requirements (Masktools2, MVtools2, nnedi3, RgTools, and Zs_RF_Shared):

http://avisynth.nl/index.php/QTGMC#Core_Plugins_and_Scripts

You also need SMDegrain.

I have following question:-
having download masktools2_v2.2.30.7z
after decompress it

LICENSE                old_README.md   with_dual_filter_signatures  x64_xp     x86_xp
masktools2.dll         old_readme.txt  x64                          x86
README.md       x64_clang                    x86_clang

Whether only copy masktools2.dll to Plugins64+ folder ?
Delete the rest ?

Other packages;

RgTools-v1.2.7z
'SMDegrain v.3.1.2d.zip'
masktools2_v2.2.30.7z
NNEDI3_v0_9_4_60.7z
mvtools-2.7.45-with-depans20210608.7z

same operation ?

Zs_RF_Shared.avsi to be copied to Plugins64+ folder ?

Thanks

[jagabo]

Yes, just put masktools2.dll from the x264 folder into AviSynth+'s plugins64+ folder. Some of the others are .AVSI files, not .dll files, but they go in the same folder. AVSI and dll files in the plugins64+ folder are automatically loaded every time 64 bit AviSynth is started. Some people prefer not to autoload them but to load them manually within each script. To do so you need to specify the full path to each file:

LoadPlugin("C:\path\to\masktools2.dll")
Import("C:\a\different\path\to\Zs_RF_Shared.avsi")

Please refers to screenshots

nnedi3.dll is for Win7

[davexnet]

Looks like qtgmc.avsi is bad.
Open it in Notepad and post the top 30 lines to the thread here
The real qtgmc.avsi is not 500KB as is seen in your image above

The top image looks OK, but the bottom image is not , looks like html or some website garbage

[Sharc]

Use this (unzip it and put it into the plugins64+ folder):

[Sharc]

Also, mvtools2.dll and nnedi3.dll are still missing in your plugins64+ folder. These are required by QTGMC.

[satimis]

Use this (unzip it and put it into the plugins64+ folder):

Download and Extract QTGMC 3.382s.zip

On Plugins64+ folder
delete QTGMC.avsi

copy QTGMC 3.382s.avsi on it.

Problem remains

Edit

nnedi3.dll is for w7. What shall I do ?

[Sharc]

Use this

... and add these. Unzip to your plugin64+ folder:

Copy (move) it to the plugins64+ folder.

Also the Zs_RF_Shared.avsi as seen in your first image in post #106 above is over 700KB.
The real Zs_RF_Shared.avsi is only 100KB. Perhaps you should open that in Notepad also and check it

I think we are past this. See posts #110,113,114
Seems the OP is now stuck with SMDegrain() ......
