Fritz Photo

[Archimedes]

Any chance you can add VCMohan's Seamer Resizer? http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=135735
I already have implemented this plugin in the past. But then I decide to delete it (make no sense for me, to use it). :D

However, it's easy to implement:

1. Copy the plugin to "Fritz Photo\plugins\Seamer" directory.
2. Copy the following scripts to "Fritz Photo\Templates\Seamer" directory (extension should be "avs").

TRSeamer.avs:

# alt = True, False, Beginner, Whether seams are to be affected alternately along width and height | bool, {False, True}
# ==============================================================================

LoadPlugin("plugins\Seamer\Seamer.dll")

Import("lib\FritzPhoto\FritzPhoto.avs")

isYV12() ? YV12toRGB32() : NOP()
TRSeamer(x=x, y=y, peak=peak, alt=alt)

Will be part of the next update.

[Archimedes]

Updated the plugins "SmoothAdjust" and "FFmpegSource2". Added the plugin "Seamer".

[Terka]

Archimedes,
what about the mvtools ;)
plz :)

[Archimedes]

Changed to version 2.6.0 of AviSynth. Fixed the chroma shift problem, when doing color conversions (from RGB32 to double sized YV12 and vice versa). :)

Added language support for the template directories and the parameters in script inspector (while the german translation for the template folders are ready, i need some time to finish the translation for the parameter descriptions).

Added "NLMeansCL" to the denoise section.

[markanini]

Eedi3 latest version doesnt seem to like avisynth 2.6? I keep getting an error about eedi3 failing to load. My dirty fix was replacing eedi3.dll w/ unknown older version.

[Archimedes]

Works fine here with the latest alpha release (http://sourceforge.net/projects/avisynth2/files/AviSynth_Alpha_Releases/AVS%202.6.0%20Alpha%202%20%5B090927%5D/).

[markanini]

I'm using SET's lasest 2.6 MT build actually.

[markanini]

I guess I'll have to keep my old EEDI3 version as I'd hate to choose between MT functionality and FritzPhoto.

A question about the resize templates; is there any way to input decimal values instead of absolute values?

PS: Please consider adding a template for automttap3. In my testing scaling a megapixel original to web-size I found it resolved fine texture in a flattering way that spline and lanczos couldn't do.

PS 2: Same problem with warpsharp.dll, again replaced it with unknown different version from the attic of my harddrives to be functional...

Strange. Works also fine here. What error message do you get?

[markanini]

:D


It's a generic "failed to load xyz.dll".

[Archimedes]

When you load the plugins outside of Fritz Photo (e. g. with VirtualDub), do you receive the same error messages?

[markanini]

Tried load both plugins in Avidemux AVS proxy and they failed to load in both cases. I'll uninstall SETs 2.6 build and install the vanilla 2.6 build and see what happens.

[Archimedes]

Here is the template (Fritz Photo script) for the automttap3 function.

1. Save the automttap3 function (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1211873#post1211873) to lib\automttap3\automttap3.avs in the program directory.

2. Save the following script to Templates\Resize\automttap3.avs in the program directory.

[markanini]

Thanks Archimedes!
So I've been spending the last hour seeing if I can sort out my issues. Going back and forth between sf.net, XhmikosR and SEt 2.6 build and avisynth plugin directory renamed to avoid issue with incomatible plugins and autoloading scripts. I made the following findings:
Warpsharp works fine, just my plugins folder causing trouble I guess.
EEDI3 failes to load with all builds.

[Archimedes]

Added drag-and-drop functionality to the AviSynth Scripts page (moving scripts from the templates to the job list and vice versa). Ordering the job list with drag-and-drop operations is also possible now.

Added "Refresh image before filtering with the selected script" and "Refresh image after filtering with the selected script" to the context menus in the preview windows. Should be self-explanatory. ;)

[Archimedes]

Simplified the resize templates and added the possibility to enter scaling factors (in percent). With the new parameter "Unit" you can define, whether the parameters "Width" and "Height" are treated as pixel or percent values.

I've also added the new "ResampleHQ" (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=160038) plugin.

[Archimedes]

Added more encoding options for the JPEG format:

- Color Space (RGB, Grey Scale, YCbCr, CMYK, YCbCrK)
- Chroma Subsampling (4:1:1, 4:2:2, 4:4:4)
- DCT Method
- Optimal Huffman Table (more compression)

[markanini]

Nice to have more options to set. Thanks!

[Archimedes]

Some things I'd like to see in future...

- Steady preview, so you can see filter setting changes in realtime etc.
Viewing changes in real-time is a little bit problematic because a lot of AviSynth filters are very slow. TNLMeans, for example, need a few minutes to calculate. No way for viewing changes in real-time. That's why I prefere the solution with the refresh button.

Some things I'd like to see in future...

- Changing the zoom of the before/after compare shouldn't process the image again but rescale/crop a buffered filtered image (much faster)
I've changed that. Now it is possible to zoom in and out without processing the image again. Will be part of the next update.

[Archimedes]

- Changed zoom function in the preview windows. Now you can zoom in and out without processing the image again.
- Fixed a memory leak when processing AviSynth scripts.
- Added an additional crop page, where you can rotate and crop images in front of any filtering.
- Updated ResampleHQ plugin and script.

[Terka]

Archimedes, nice work in summary. Have one suggestion (besides mvtools implementing ;)): using key 'TAB' and 'SHIFT-TAB' to switch between values when editing parameters.

Thank you, T.

[Archimedes]

Changed and will be part of the next update. Tab and enter key now switch between the values. Thanks for pointing out that.

[Archimedes]

There you go. Will upload the package immediately.

[Terka]

Thank you!

[Yobbo]

This thing's stupid, I can never get it to work. I get "avisynth open error - there is no function ConvertToYV24"... If I try using ImmaRead I get "haven't sent MAGICK_HOME variable" blah blah. SO frustrating.

[Archimedes]

Program needs AviSynth 2.6 or higher and (when using the Immaavs plugin) an environment variable MAGICK_HOME = <Fritz Photo program directory>\dll\ImageMagick as described in the first post.

[Archimedes]

Updated the plugins Defish, ResampleHQ, NNEDI3 and SmoothAdjust and changed some templates. Added german translation for the parameter descriptions (need to be tested).

[naoan]

Hi, this is very useful app, but I got avisynth runtime error after processing 11 images and it always happen, any workaround for this?

[markanini]

Which Avisynth build are you running?

[naoan]

Latest 2.6 alpha (110525), it seems the problem is with dfttest, and it's not exactly 11 images before it crash. Sometimes I could process all intended files (was 46) sometimes it crash at only 9.

[markanini]

Try SETs 2.6 MT build.

[naoan]

I used that one before trying official build, it crash more often on Fritz Photo but never on normal encoding.

[Archimedes]

Did a quick test with 212 images from a digital camera (original resolution). No problems here (latest alpha release of AviSynth) with dfttest.

What is the task manager telling you while processing? Do you have enough memory?

[naoan]

Fritz use up to 100MB of memory, going down to 30MB and up again for each Image, I have 4GB of ram so it doesn't seems to be the problem. I just tried avisynth set build and it processed up to 31 image before throwing this error :

http://i.imgur.com/RflRa.png

My script is simple greyscale and dfttest, using sigma 256 since it's a comic scans, maybe that's the problem?

[Archimedes]

Is dfttest the only case, where you get such error message? Try other plugins and make a test with no filtering (only graphic format conversion).

[chainring]

I'm having a problem on Win7 x64 where none of the tabs have labels and most of the windows are blank. In the preview window, I have to hit "Refresh" before the images will show up. Anything special for running on 64 bit?

I just tried fft3dfilter and have the same problem as dfttest after some image. Lsfmod, Msmooth and plain conversion (jpeg to png) worked without a hitch though.

[Archimedes]

Fritz Photo run all AviSynth scripts in thread. If there is a crash, you normally will receive the same crash (the same error message) when starting the script outside of the program (e. g. in Virtual Dub).

Don’t’ know exactly, what the problem is here. I will provide you with another exe file for further testing.

The program was developed with Borland Delphi 2005 Personal Edition (32 bit). Never tested it in a 64 bit environment. I will make some tests on 64 bit systems. ;)

Regarding the preview window, this is the normal behavior, you allways have to hit the refresh button, before seeing pictures.

I did try it in a Win XP 32bit virtual machine and all is good.

Both filters (FFT3DFilter and dfttest) are using the FFTW library (but each another version). But do not know, wether it has to do with your problems. :D

However, here is a test (debug) version. Please copy the file to the program directory of Fritz Photo, start it and try again.

Thanks, I'll report back after I've done testing.

[markanini]

Could you possibly add 'show' parameter to the Smoothadjust plugins, Archimedes?

[Archimedes]

- Tab sheet captions now visible under Windows 7, 64 bit.
- Added dynamic script environment switch to the ini file.
Delete or not delete the script environment variable after each AviSynth process, that's the question (it is deactivated now by default).
- Updated the plugins and changed some templates.

[markanini]

I still find your tool indispensable. Kindly requesting the addition of chroma kernel parameters in the ResampleHQ script.

Looks like Wikiupload has lost the files. Links in the first post are not working.

Thanks. ResampleHQ script works in the RGB32 color space, so I’m assuming, chroma_kernel didn’t work for that.

Seems, WikiUpload has deleted my files. Will upload the files to another host.

[Soulhunter]

As hosting seems problematic, mind if I host it on my server?
