So, if I create these extra "Custom" MDegrain .avs filters, is it as simple as adding (whatever you've named them), into the "Limit to following filters only" window, and the MT function will be enabled.

It's easy, I have to replace C:/Program Files/RipBot264 in the script, with D:\DirectCD\Program Setup Files\RipBot264v1.25.0

and I think I will be alright

EDIT: Preview Script works now

I've been checking some new jobs today, and I had a dilemma, use 1 or 2, or use 2 or 3?

I had to de-select one then press the arrow, and select the other one, preview, too many clicks

I think they have to be in the same menu

You have to add the name of the command to the "Limit to following filters only", such as MDegrain1, MDegrain3, etc... It is the name (command) you use in the AVS script to call the function (filter). Not the name of the custom script or the name of the DLL/AVSI/AVS

If you mean can you have more than one custom script in the drop down, yes. However, if you mean select more than one script at a time, no. If you have functions that you want a the same time you'd have to make a new custom script...even for tiny changes.
Usually what I do if I have a lot of jobs is either add them in groups with the custom filters I want or if only a few jobs add them all at once and then go back and change just those jobs manually.

When you say frame accurate you don't mean timing, but rather frames completely just get skipped when they are not "accurate"?
I haven't played with GPU decoding much but if that is more accurate than LSmash I'd use that on the machines I can even if sometimes slower.

No, just to put all MDegrain variations in the Denoise menu to be easier to compare outputs

But you can do the same in custom section.

When I say frame accurate, I mean that If I request frame 100 (with Trim function in script), I get frame 100. With ffms2 ,on other hand, you may get frame 99 or 101 or even totally corrupted frame.

GPU decoding is done via LSmash so results will be the same.

Yes, but it's not easy to compare between 1 & 2, or between 2 & 3, as they are in different screens

Add MDegrain2 to custom section and you have all 3 in the same spot.

Hi Atak, I recently updated to v1.25.0. I just tried encoding the movie Life in DE mode and it failed with about 8 minutes left in the movie. When I look at the Chunks folder there are no *.264 files for the last 8 chunks. When I try to run each .cmd file manually I get these errors.

y4m[error]: bad sequence header magic
x2464[error]: could not open input file `_'

If I rerun the .cmd files for any of the completed chunks I get the normal .264 output. I don't understand what's going on. Should I just try recoding again from scratch?

This might be corrupted source file, bug in source filter or broken hardware or driver.

Okay, thank you for clarifying. The only time you use FFMS2 is HEVC, right? I recall thinking it was MPEG2 but you saying it is best with LSmash.

open [chunk_number].avs in mpc-hc and see if there is some error message.

With latest version of lsmash I recommend to use it for ALL formats! Just forget about ffms. Lsmash is superior in almost every aspect.

Off topic...storage question..

So I would imagine that most of you have a reasonable collection of both unprocessed and processed movies & series, etc, which can add up to a LOT of Terabytes.

I would be interested to know what some of you (who are happy to oblige) have & use for storage, of said data ???

I have several reasonable capacity Supermicro storage servers, and a couple of Unraid "box's", but unfortunately, every so often there is a problem, and as a result, I get data corruption.

I don't really have too much backed up, so sometimes it's a complete loss , which can be very frustrating, especially if it was irreplaceable.

Anyway, I'm just curious...
