Yayy!!
The latest PM'd copy works perfectly. The autocrop, reset problem is fixed!! Great work!
Now I can play again.
PS: I have abandoned the auto interlacing analysis and everything works much faster now! As you said in a PM, I won't need it for most of my stuff as I mostly use rips from original DVDs and not recoded from TV where the interlacing flags can get mixed up. Btw it seemed to be working well before I turned it off. -
I just noticed that if I set "Auto deinterlacing" and select the Deinterlacer as "Yadif (Avisynth)" with mode 1 and 'order' -1 and then save the global profile, this setting is back to default mode 0 and order 1 when I reload the saved global profile.
I will continue to play later. Gotta go out now...
I just did a quick check before going out with throwing a folder with 2 videos in it at Hybrid and it still only autocrops the first video properly - the second video is only cropped at the top.Last edited by Ahari; 14th May 2012 at 06:38.

please create a debug output of the process (just enable the debug output before loading the folder)
Cu Selur
Ps.: I know what is causing the Yadif (Avisynth) problem, but it will take a while to change it -
Here is the debug log for the folder with 2 files.

Btw: I don't know what you did, but the latest PM'd Hybrid's global profile seems to be remembering the Yadif (Avisynth) settings! I will try to break it, but it seems to be working well! You said I should use the Yadif custom (Avisynth) one in the meantime, but I didn't need to change it. -
What is the difference with Yadif custom? -
Yadif -fast => Yadif through MPlayer/ffmpeg (FieldOrder will be set by Hybrid; no settings for user to change stuff)
Yadif - custom => Yadif through MPlayer/ffmpeg (FieldOrder&Mode should be kept)
Yadif (Avisynth) => Yadif through Avisynth (FieldOrder will be set by Hybrid; no settings for user to change stuff)
Yadif - custom (Avisynth) => Yadif through Avisynth (FieldOrder&Mode should be kept)
also redownload the version (old link should work), I changed some small stuff yesterday -
Thanks - will do.
I am busy using the last version. Seems to be working nicely in general. I am using the Yadif-custom (Avisynth) filter you recommended and it seems to be working well. Thanks.
Btw: I notice that the previews are not the same as the actual output file. Is there any way to get a full preview that will be the same as the output? It is very difficult to adjust settings for things like DeBlock QED and sharpening without a live preview or at least a full preview that will match the output. At the moment I am guessing the settings and processing a small clip, checking the results and guessing again! Maybe I am missing something. -

Hybrid takes the source and should apply all the filters you use. It can't simulate the effect of the compression you apply. (there's no other way than to apply the compression,...)
Or do you think Hybrid is not applying all the filters you selected?
Cu Selur -
In this case, I am taking some old home videos from VHS tapes, cropping the noise off the edges, resizing back to original dimensions, doing a bit of deblocking and sharpening just a little to compensate for the softening from deblocking and saving as an MP4 using x264.
The resultant video looks a lot softer than the preview and the only way to evaluate the settings fully is to actually process a clip of the video.
It would be really nice to be able to see the actual effects of everything in a live window (sort of like Avidemux). Don't get me wrong, I think Hybrid is way better than Avidemux, but it does have some nice features that make it easier to "turn the knobs and tweak the settings".
Or do you think Hybrid is not applying all the filters you selected? -
It does have a nice side by side preview window that shows the results of the filters. I'm not sure if it previews the actual compression settings, but it works well and is easy to use. I only mention it because I like the way it works.
It would be nice to have something similar in Hybrid that could preview the compression settings even if only for a chosen frame. Something that would apply all the settings including the compression as you adjust them. That way you could see the effect of fiddling immediately as you play with the settings. Just an idea... -

Main difference is a design question, they always show the preview or side-by-side view and incorporated it into the GUI and Hybrid choose not to.

-> Sorry, but I don't think that I'll incorporate the preview as a fixed view into Hybrid.

There side by side view is basically the same as Hybrids "Filter View" (or Avisynth Preview with 'Filter view' turned on) they do not do not allow to preview anything with the compression settings. (I checked the source code.) And they only apply them after you select them, there are not doing anything like an instant preview.

What you are looking for is more like an NLE tool, like Edius, Avid and similar
-> Sorry, but I don't think that I'll incorporate the preview as a fixed view into Hybrid.
The main reasons for me looking to Hybrid instead of Avidemux is Hybrid is much easier to tweak the settings and batch process lots of files (when the folder problem is fixed ) and Avidemux is kinda stalled - it takes forever for anything to get fixed. You are obviously passionate about Hybrid and that makes it a pleasure to play with!! -
Selur, I am finally having some fun with Hybrid. Thanks for all your efforts so far - I hope anyone reading through this thread will learn as much as I have.
My head is spinning a bit less after all this, but it is still a lot to digest for a newbie! Your experience would help a lot.
Can you help me out with some suggested settings for converting my VHS videos to mp4 files using x264? The videos have to be cropped a bit and I think bobbing would be best (QTGMC or Yadif mode 1?).
I don't want to lose any quality as these videos are precious to me.
I think a bit of sharpening is in order to compensate for the bobbing and resizing - is that right? Any setting suggestions for sharpening?
Any help is much valued. -
QTGMC or Yadif mode 1?

Depending on the quality of the input material denoising and color corrections are probably not a bad idea,.. but that you have to decide on you own. VHS captured material can give nice to really bad source material,.. -
Any progress with the autocrop not working properly when a folder is processed and the problem with no audio in the previews?
Cropping: works fine here -> need debug output or better two files that cause the problem,.. -

Files are a bit big to post. -
okay,...
1. make sure the avisynth script ("C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Temp\encodingTempAvi synthSkript_12_32_09_901.avs") still exists.
If not create a .avs text file with the following content:
Code:SetMemoryMax(768) SetMTMode(5,8) LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\ffms2.dll") LoadCPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\yadif.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\mt_masktools-26.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\DctFilter.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\deblock.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\RepairSSE2.dll") LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\RemoveGrainSSE2.dll") Import("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\Deblock_QED.avs") Import("C:\Program Files\Hybrid\avisynthPlugins\Dehalo_alpha_mt.avsi") FFVideoSource("F:\My Videos\Mede8er\Working\Hybrid\HAPPY_FEET_TWO\title04.mkv",cachefile="C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Temp\title04_12_32_09_901.ffindex",fpsnum=25,threads=1) SetMTMode(2) ConvertToYv12(interlaced=true, matrix="PC.709") Yadif(1,-1) Crop(0,68,720,438) Spline16Resize(720,576) Deblock_QED(quant1=24,quant2=26,aOff1=1,bOff1=1,aOff2=2,bOff2=2,uv=3) DeHalo_alpha_mt(rx=2,ry=2,darkstr=1,brightstr=1,highsens=50,lowsens=50,ss=1.5) Removegrain(mode=2) distributor() return(last)
if not recreate it with:

Either it's a en- or decoding problem that causes x264 to stop working:
a. if the decoding through avisynth causes a problem step 3. should throw out some warnings/errors
b. if x264 either has a problem with the raw video input or is simply running out of memory step 4. should throw some errors/warning.
Cu Selur
Ps.: the crop values ( Crop(clip, int "left", int "top", int "width", int "height") ) look fine -
1. make sure the avisynth script ("C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Temp\encodingTemp Avi synthSkript_12_32_09_901.avs") still exists.
2. make sure the index file ("C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Temp\title04_12_3 2_0 9_901.ffindex") still exists
3. Check if the decoding part works:
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Hybrid\mencoder.exe" -lavdopts threads=8 -of rawvideo -o test.raw -ovc raw -noskip -vf scale,format=i420,scale,format=i420 -forcedsubsonly -nosub -nosound -mc 0 "C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Temp\encodingTempAvis ynthSkript_12_32_09_901.avs"
(delete test.raw)

(delete title04_new_12_32_09_901_06.264)
There were no warnings or errors. -
Okay, since the command lines all work fine my guess is that you used up to much RAM while running Hybrid and x264 ran out of memory while processing the file.
-> if you still have the job in Hybrid, try to restart it. (step no 4 included the original command line Hybrid used and reported a crash,..)
Cu Selur -
Hybrid and x264 ran out of memory while processing the file.
Had to reload the job and it crashed again!
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3334489/Hybrid/HybridDebugOutput%20%288%29.txt -
strange,.. I'll build a new version and send it to you that will create some additional debug output that hopefully will help hunting this bug down,..
-
Thanks.
Just a note: I was also trying to run a large file (well not that big - about 500mb) through last night after playing with the QTGMC settings and it just stopped processing twice. Once at about 14% and the second try after a reboot (just in case) at about 18%. I left it for hours to see if it was just taking a long time to process, but did not get any further. Had to close Hybrid.
Don't know if that had anything to do with it - I was loading up the filter with lots of heavy processing options to give it a "spin". Haven't had the time to check it again today. I have not applied those settings to this job btw... -
without any detailed infos how to reproduce this -> no clue, but be aware that Avisynth is a 32bit application an therefore can not use more than 2GB of RAM, so there might be a combination of settings that causes Avisynth to want more than 2GB of RAM an will cause it to crash.
I did test all the settings and this should normally not happen, but it could.
-> I don't think that is the cause of the problem,.. -

Selur,
Your explanation is the best I ever seen or heard explaining the 3:2 pulldown process. Still if I could trouble you with just one question to make sure that I understand everything right. According to your diagrams all odd frames are pulled down creating 2 fields, and all even numbered frames are pulled down creating 3 fields. So shouldn't the last, (24th, an even numbered), frame creating 3 (#58,# 59, #60) fields? And those last 3 frames recombined into the last 30th frame? Again, not nitpicking, just a desire to understand the process clearly. Thanks!
Regards -
Thanks again, I appreciate your quick reply. I just feel better that I understand the process completely.
Best Regards
