smdegrain and MCTemporalDenoise errors

[Betelman]

Hello,

I am trying to get smdegrain to work on my script, but I'm getting the following error:

mt_lut does not have a named argument "use_expr".

For MCTemporalDenoise I am getting the following error:

there is no function named "MSuper".

Now, I have the latest version of mvtools (2.7.41), so I can't understand what the story is here.

MSuper -> are you sure the mvtools2.dll is loaded?
mt_lut -> are you sure the masktools2.dll is loaded?
without details, my guess it your script doesn't load them and they are not in the avisynth plugin autoload folder,....

[Betelman]

Yes, they are both in my plugins folder. I use other scripts/functions whose DLLs or AVSIs are in that folder just fine.

[Betelman]

I guess those specific filters are just too high maintenance.

You might try asking over in doom9.org. They have far more AVISynth experts there, including people who actually write these plugins.

[Betelman]

Ok, thanks.

This may be a version issue.

For MCTemporalDenoise I am getting the following error:

there is no function named "MSuper".

Now, I have the latest version of mvtools (2.7.41), so I can't understand what the story is here.

This means the mvtools2.dll isn't being loaded. Maybe a 64bit vs. 32bit problem. Try loading the filter manually and see if you get an error message.

I found the masktools2 (latest release - 2.2.18) but I can't find the dll and there are many folders in the zip. What should I do with this?

Extract the appropriate masktools2.dll and put it in AviSynth's plugins folder. The one in the x64 folder is for 64 bit AviSynth, the one in the x86 folder is for 32 bit AviSynth.

Got it for smdegrain. Thanks.

But for McTemporalDenoise, I'm getting the following now:

Removegrain: Invalid mode 20.

I'll see what I can find.

[jagabo]

RemoveGrain/RGTools has been updated over the years with more modes. You need a newer version. You can probably get rid of the old RemoveGrain and just use the newer RGTools.

[Betelman]

Jagabo, do you happen to have a link to the DLL? When I google it, it leads me to the Avisynth docs which leads me to this website

https://github.com/pinterf/RgTools/releases

But their folders NEVER have the actual DLL. What gives?

[davexnet]

The download 7z file contains x86 and x64 folders. The respective dll's are right there.
https://github.com/pinterf/RgTools/releases/download/0.97/RgTools-0.97.7z

[Betelman]

Ok, now I just realized that with 7z files, you have to right-click and select "extract files here", and then you see the x86 and x64 folders.

Thanks.

It depends on what program you're using to view the archive -- but you may not have to extract the full archive. Just double click on a folder in the archive to see what's in it. When you find the file you want you can drag/drop it to where you want it.
