TestSub.VDF from Gabest-VobSub

Can anyone please tell me why TestSub.VDF from Gabest-VobSub don't work in YV12?
It's suposed to work in YUY2 and YV12...
Everytime i try to load in VdMod a .AVS script with a TestSub in it, it crash withouth any
error messages.
Thx.

P.s: Keep the great work in Avisinth_Yv12!!!

Yes, because textsub/vobsub doesn't work in YV12. Gabest told me that only dvobsub works also in YV12. I asked him to make a version for AviSynth 2.5 but there are some issues he want to see resolved. Sh0dan knows more about this ...

Being an absolute rookie to this color space stuff:
Could anyone please point out, how the bits of the YUV components are allocated to the 12 bits of YV12?
How's it with YUY2 (are there 16 or 18 bits)?
And how is "4:2:2" or "4:2:0" related to the above?

@sundance

You can view technical information about YV12 here:
http://www.fourcc.org/fccyuv.htm#YV12
I've digested the information and posted it here:
http://www.everwicked.com/forums/sho...&threadid=1645

I knew very little about colorspace before a few hours of research a few days ago.

@smokes,

thanks a lot for the knowledge compilation and your links.
Just what I was looking for. Plenty of stuff to read (and to understand, too)!

I also put up some information at the bottom of the Alpha page. Also some useful links.

1) I'm not sure what you mean. I copied the links to the YV12 resource pages (see 14). Let me know if you mean something else.

2) I'm updating the Q&A for YV12 and AviSynth v2.5. If it is ready should I commit it to the 2.1 branch (or both branches)?

3) Is it still true that v2.0x plugins (I remember you discussed it with Richard somewhere) will be useable in the first beta of v2.5?

4) Will there be a v2.08 or is v2.5 the next version?

From the first page of the faq:

Quote:
10. Is YV12 & AVISynth 2.5 just for Xvid/DivX or can it be used for conversions to MPEG1 or MPEG2 (DVD to (S)VCD) via TMPGenc or CCE? Or do these 2 encoders not support YV12?

Neither CCE nor TMPGEnc can use YV12 input since Windows has no internal YV12 compressor. This only means that the last line of AviSynth must be a ConvertToYUY2 (for CCE, or ConvertToRGB24 for TMPGEnc) call, and that you will not be able to take full advantage of YV12 colorspace. All internal filtering in AviSynth will be faster though (less data to filter, better structure to filter, and a very fast conversion from YV12 to YUY2), and you will definitely be able to tell the difference between 2.06 and 2.5.
If you are making a progressive clip then there is probably more than just a speed advantage.

Putting off the YV12->YUY2 conversion until the end of the script allows you to first IVTC or Deinterlece to create progressive frames. But the YV12->YUY2 conversion for progressive frames maintains more chroma detail than it does for interlaced or field based frames.

So there should also be a small quality advantage.

Not at the moment.

It should only be comitted to the 2_1 branch - I had planned on copying the 2.0 documentation for the first beta, and then correct it, as the beta phase went along. So just copy the documentation from the main branch (with the latest changes) to 2_1 branch. I haven't updated any documentation for 2.5 yet.

Quote:
3) Is it still true that v2.0x plugins (I remember you discussed it with Richard somewhere) will be useable in the first beta of v2.5?
No - I can see no way for that to be possible, without putting back some bad restrictions into 2.5 (all audio work, and much YV12 support will not be possible, if they have to remain compatible )
The first beta will also invalidate ALL 2.5 alpha, since the plugin load'er will change, so that 2.0 will not try to load 2.5 plugins (and crash) and vice versa.
It is however only a 5 second fix and a recompile necessary to make alpha filters work in the beta.

Quote:
4) Will there be a v2.08 or is v2.5 the next version?
2.0x will still be bug-fixed, but all new features will go into 2.5!
2.0x is the "stable" version, but will probably die out.

It looks like the link to Mpeg2Dec3 has been down for a couple of days, in case anyone needs it you can find it here http://smokeslikeapoet.d2g.com . By the way, if any other coders need mirrors for their YV12 compatible AVISynth filters. I am more than willing to host them. In a few weeks I will have increased bandwidth and resources to host filter development pages as well. My only motive in doing this is that I want to teach myself and gain experience in managing a large number of users on a linux platform. As long as you're not going to tax my bandwith too much feel free to contact me. william at techwill.net

Sorry if this may sound stupid but do the IVTC and Deinterlace filters work with YV12?

Decomb and TomsMoComp have been updated to use YV12.

Is there an MPEG Encoder that uses YUV12?

I hope I understand everything written about YUV12 vs. YUV2...

I would like to know more about that issue:
1. The MPGs on DVDs are saved in YUV12? Right?
2. I do convert (and maybe filtering) to YUV2! (Right?)
3. And the encoder (regardless if TMPenc or CCE) makes YUV12 out
of it or YUV2???

If the DVD MAterial is YUV12 - why not decode in Yuv12 - as with avisynth 2.5 - and encode in YUV12 -> not possible? Or just not possible right now? Do we have to wait for a special YUV12 Encoder?

A second question: Which codec should I use for tv captures in future?
I do use PICvideo for the moment (and IŽm still very happy...), but maybe there is a way to increase the speed of editing after capture by doing the capture with the right codec.
Is XVID comparable (quaitywise) with picvideo Q19/20 - and fast enough?

kind regards
Harald

BTW: Speedincrease with DVD Backup is >10% -> Thank you...YUV12 Team!

  1. Well it's called YV12, not YUV12, but yes, that's the way it is stored on DVD's
  2. Yes.
  3. Yes and no.
    CCE uses YUY2 as input which means that it uses YV12->YUY2->YV12 . Not bad but could be better.
    TMPEG on the other hand requires RGB input so the conversion here is YV12(->YUY2)->RGB->YV12 where the second step is of course done if you use AviSynth 2.0x or earlier.
Every color conversion will introduce rounding errors, not large and usually not noticeable. They usually only become noticeable if you mix frame/field information and encode an interlaced video as framebased or vice versa. And if AviSynth2.5 becomes popular enough I'd say that sooner or later someone will make an MPEG encoder that can use YV12 input. The teams behind ReMPEG or bbMPEG maybe?

Thank you,

as far as I know Koepi and Nic were working on an new mpegencoder,
but I havenŽt heard much of it for months...
Maybe theyŽll do something in that YV12 way?

Anything about my second question (codec for tv-caps)?
Then IŽll be able to do the "caps for the kids" much faster

Thnaks again hakko,

but after reading the whole thread - there really wasnŽt a
new Huffyuv for DL...
WeŽll have to wait, I guess...

(Maybe Christmas eve )

It would be great if they would do one capable of encoding KVCD's.
