Does it mean that Avisynth would be included in the exe, or it would be downloaded if selected ?
Nope, the installer wouldn't install Avisynth at all, it just would let the user select if the 32bit or the 64 bit avsInfo.exe should be installed.

The only issue is of course the user would end up redownloading all packages to update potentially 1 single package.
Yup, that's the main downside. There would be just one larger package for all Windows versions.
(the Hybrid binary only downloads will still exist, so this is only an issue with package downloads)

I always prefer to use a ZIP package myself, maybe because I like to understand how things are working and what is happening on my system, although I understand that people may like an installer.

But since you are using file hosting sites it shouldn't be a problem to provide both files (7)ZIP and installer because the installer will be made from files that you just have to ZIP

I would prefer to only provide the packages as separate zip files or the installer, not both (to simplify the stuff that needs to be done when releasing a new version).
But since I suspected some users might prefer the packages I asked for opinions.

i think, the main advantage of an installer will be, that the decision will be taken off from the User, and he dont have to think about "what OS do i have" and "what processor architecture version will be the best for my system" and "what do i have to download to make Hybrid to work at all".

a couple of MB more or less isnt the problem, in my opinion. the difference will be minimal...

bye

Not so minimal,.. around 10 to 15 MB for Win32 and Win2k users.
Installer (with all versions) ~50MB, Win32package ~35MB, Win32package+Win2k additions ~40MB, Win32package+Win64 addition ~ 50MB.
But I think at least for the first few releases I'll provide installer and packages,..

If mencoder or ffmpeg have them: yes (not sure if they do nowadays)
otherwise: no, since Hybrid doesn't create avisynth files,...

Don't think that will happen in the near future since mencoder&ffmpeg which are mainly used don't have gpu decoding and I probably won't have the time to read-up and write a decoder (which would need to be able to output raw yv12 via std:ut) myself.
And since DGDecNV is avisynth only and doesn't have the ability to output via std:ut that's probably also not gonna happen anytime soon.
That said if someone writes a command line decoder I would add support for it inside Hybrid.

these would be needed features:
1. it should be able to open raw h.264 files
2. output to pipe (std:ut) and file
3. everything that's not file output should go to std:err not std:ut
4. output file format should be something x264/ffmpeg/mencoder supports (i.e. NV12/Yv12)
these would be nice features:
1. being able to open raw mpeg-2/vc-1 files or everything else the decoder can handle
2. accept input via pipe, so one could use i.e. mencoder/ffmpeg to open a container and pipe the content to the decoder and from the decoder to i.e. x264
3. progress indication to std::err
4. deinterlacing support
these would be too good to be true features:
1. ability to read stream that are still inside a container (so one would have a basic DGDecNV replacement)
2. combine it the cuda encoder Hybrid uses (I share the the code, which is mainly a Qt port of the cuda encoder example from the cuda sdk)
3. additional filtering through the decoder (cropping, denoise, whatever is possible)

about license: don't care as long as it's free to use for personal purposes and I get no trouble if I add it to the Hybrid packages/installer
open source: would be nice, but not a needs-to-be

why is encoding on gpu so slow when i use filters ? - it uses the gpu only on ~25%. when i switch off the filtering it is used for ~100% (dvd source)...
btw mencoder is using only one core ???

currently the dvd source will be opened and decoded with mencoder (which is probably the bottleneck when decoding)
Quote:

What does '-lavdopts threads=X' in the decoder part of the call say ?
(on linux threads=1 is forced since multi-threaded mpeg decoding seems to be broken there from time to time, but on windows X should be number of cpu core iirc.)
Depending on your filtering, it might also be that one of the filters used doesn't support multi-threading.
