Test and SSIM

[Dams]

Hi all,

Is there any program that take in multiple filename (different .avi files and one dvd-source .d2v) to automate the read of each file in order to obtain ssim file number ??

Thanks,

[esby]

I could make one..

I have some libraries able to to the job in delphi...
(An gui frontend I started which development is halted for now.)
* parsing the files with avs2avi
I guess I could implement the following features:
* one source (avi/avs)
* a list of other source to compare with the first one
* optionnal range selection for parsing
* automated naming of the result according to the first source & the current source compared with.

Could be nice idea!

I can help u if wanna, I program in Delphi 7 too.
I'd be happy to learn to automate VirtualDubMod in Delphi, like making jobs or other cool things..

What do u thinking about ?

[esby]

well here,
it has nothing to do with vdub or vdubmod,
it's just about automating logical steps of operations,
which are usually command lined.
I'll release the source code once i m done with it anyway.

esby

PS: for making jobs with vdub, you probably need to edit the job file,
and follow the vdub job 'api' specification. (sylia scripting)

[Dams]

ok, tell me when u'll be ready.

gimme two days

That would be a very cool app... :)

Possibility to add PSNR as well ???

Ya.
I except to make myself, for moment, a test in Delphi with VirtualDubMod , before watching esby's sources with avs2avi.

[Dams]

I found all syntax for command line and for sylia scripting.

It's ok for running first version of automation software..
I'll post later when I'll got first alpha version :)

[Dams]

I've made a simple software like this :

http://membres.lycos.fr/dexec/vdbautomate.JPG

It will take an AVS file and compressed files (AVI) and produce for the moment SSIM numbers only (automatic naming result files with avi filename)

I will release soon on my website with documentation.

[esby]

I'll have a tool ready for this weekend I think,
if all goes well,
and a bit different... since it can do other interesting stuff...


esby

[Dams]

yeah, it be cool if people have choice, perhaps I choose yours !

[Kurtnoise]

For PSNR and/or VQM I use Video Quality Studio (http://www.everwicked.com/vqstudio/). It sounds very good for me.:cool: Unfortunately SSIM isn't integrate :(

But I'd like test our tools for sure ;)

[esby]

I have something,
It's still very limited,
having other things to do...
It's an alpha version, so no source code unless you really want it...

http://esby.free.fr/prog/alfaEncoder/

Anyway, what can interest this thread is the third operating mode. (analysis)
procedure:

Select a source,
(optional) select a plage of range to limit the analysis.
Select one or several files to compare with.
Queue it, if you selected only one.
Launch the queue. (GO)

If that does not works.

Try checking in the temp directory the temporary(ies) avs created,
and see if it/they load correctly...

Of course, feel free to do any suggestion or bug report.
Job control will be changed soon, so no real need to report bug or lack of feature concerning this aspect.

Thanks, I will try it... :)

ERROR: DevIL-d.dll not found !!!

Guess I need this DevIL-d.dll, huh ???


Bye

[esby]

I'll put it in the page
[edit: added the file]
esby

[Soulhunter]

Hmm, now it wants a MSVCRTD.dll... :confused:


Bye

[esby]

uh

what exactly want that ?

the gui, the dsynth build or the avs2avi build?

being unable to build a release build for dsynth, i ve upxed it,
but maybe i was a bit too hard on it...

esby

PS: anyway, i'm going to repack the rar file with an older version of dsynth...

[esby]

repacked version upped.

btw i could not find the dll you are missing this time on my system,
so I hope this version will work...

Anyway, I will try your new version n' post back then !!!


THX n' Bye

[Soulhunter]

Ok, another error...

AVS2AVI : 0x015ef6c0 blah blah / job completed - exitcode: 3221225477

This source info confuses me !!!

It should look like this...

Also the temporal avs throws a error message...

There is no function named "ForceVideoDecoding"

After removing this "ForceVideoDecoding" function, I can play the file correctly !!!

Hmm, now it wants a MSVCRTD.dll...
I thought this dll was installed during the install of AviSynth itself?

Anyway, here's a link: http://www.geocities.com/wilbertdijkhof/MSVCRTD.DLL

[Dams]

hi !

I've release my program also (Qualitix), let's see it here (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=78929)

It's a little different but same goal.

[esby]

There is no function named "ForceVideoDecoding"

Actually, there is one, but only in dsynth, not in avisynth.
If you let the avisynth.dll provided in the same folder,
avs2avi will use it by default instead of the one in your system system32 directory...
Now if you try to open it with vdub, since vdub does not search in the same folder, it will always tell you that, unless you replace avisynth by dsynth, which you can do in most of the time.
(And anyway, switching back is easily doable, just run the installer once again, and you are back to avisynth...)

esby

PS: oh yeah ....

job completed - exitcode: 3221225477

job completed => avs2avi finished from executing, and it can be launched again...
exitcode != 0 ==> an error occured during the process...

I'll fix it anyway.

where do I get VQM?
