I downloaded them and put them into the "core/plugins" folder, but still it said the namespace doesn't exist.

imw = core.imwri.Write(clip, imgformat="PNG", filename=r"F:\temp_img_w\image%06d.png", firstnum=1)


UPDATE:

Okay it works now, don't know why it took a few minutes before it start working.

[lansing]

I saw another bug, I turned "character typed to start autocompletion" to 0, but it gives me a selection even on a blank space, and there's only the "core" selection to choose from, which is unnecessary.

Hi, when I use the scxvid (https://github.com/dubhater/vapoursynth-scxvid)plugin the program just load for a while and terminated.


clip = core.scxvid.Scxvid(clip, use_slices=True)

for i in range (len(clip)):
frame = clip.get_frame(i)

if frame.props._SceneChangePrev == 1:
b = 8

clip.set_output()

Could you add a feature to import bookmarks from a file? It would help with adding bookmarks at scenechanges or something of that sort.

Could you add a feature to import bookmarks from a file? It would help with adding bookmarks at scenechanges or something of that sort.I'll think about. Bookmarks are written into a text (.bookmarks) file along the script. You can just edit that file and reload preview.

Hi I would like a request a "find" function, it's giving me headaches trying to delete/rename something through a long script.Planned. Sorry, but the progress is slow right now. My work takes most of my energy and time.

[lansing]

My workflow requires me to load in two videos and compare them side by side on every frame, and after a while the memory usage piled up reaching my max memory, but then closing the preview window didn't flush it, I have to close the program entirely and reopen it in order to continue.

The following script will crash Editor. Newest version.
import vapoursynth as vs
core = vs.get_core()
clipsRGB = core.imwrif.Read("C:/Users/Walter/Documents/SMIL/BSG23/testsuite/OLED/vapoursynth/colorcheckerchart4k.tif")
clipsRGB = clipsRGB.text.ClipInfo()
clipRec2020 = core.imwrif.Read("C:/Users/Walter/Documents/SMIL/BSG23/testsuite/OLED/vapoursynth/colorcheckerchart4kElleV4Big2.tif")
clipsRGB = core.resize.Bicubic(clipsRGB, format=vs.RGB24, primaries_s="709", transfer_in_s="601")
clipRec2020 = core.resize.Bicubic(clipRec2020, format=vs.RGB24, primaries_s="2020", transfer_in_s="2020_10")
d = core.std.MakeDiff(clipsRGB, clipRec2020)
da = core.std.Levels(d, min_in=126, max_in=130, gamma=1, min_out=64, max_out=192, planes=[0,1,2])
da.set_output()

It seems to happen in first resize.

R17 is couple of bugs (context menu related) away from release. The jobs queue is now handled by server, which comes with a controlling "watcher" and supports whitelist based remote control. Now you don't need to keep editor windows open while your jobs are processed. And less GUI overhead means even more processing speed. Instant encoding is back too.

Those of you who build it from source - please test.
Linux Mint users might experience problems with Watcher tray icon. The problem does not appear if you run Watcher as root. If anyone knows how to fix it - please tell.
If you closed Watcher into tray and can't get it back - run it again. Instead of running new instance, the existing window will show.
And here is a Windows build. (https://bitbucket.org/mystery_keeper/vapoursynth-editor/downloads/VapourSynthEditor-64bit-2017-09-22.7z)

It's not yet tagged in the main repo.

It's not yet tagged in the main repo.

Because it is not released yet. Since changes are big, I'd like users to test.
I've just stomped out the context menu bugs and updated the test build.

Oh yep, I missread you.

The right click control still feel kind of weird. When I highlight the selection and right click, the selection in the background should remain highlighted. And the context menu for the selection should only be selectable if I right click on top of the selection, it shouldn't be available if I right click on anywhere else in the editor.

Another issue with selection I found, when I double click on a word and drag very fast to the right, the highlight always misses the last character of the line, for example
core = vs.get_core(accept_lowercase=True)
It always missed the ")" at the end.

The text doesn't get deselected. Just the background colour seems to change on the editor loosing focus. But I checked with other editors, and some of them do what Qt's editor doesn't. They reset cursor if right click is made outside the selection. I don't know if I should adopt that behavior.

Your second problem I can't reproduce.

That's what every editor do, including the browser.


Your second problem I can't reproduce.
Double click on the first word, hold on the left button, then drag very quickly to the right to highlight the line, the selection will always break before the last character that wasn't a part of a word.

# this works normally
core = vs.get_core(accept_lowercase=True

# this will break before ")"
core = vs.get_core(accept_lowercase=True)

# this will break before "."
core = vs.get_core(accept_lowercase=True.

I finally got to test it on Gentoo Linux (KDE Plasma desktop) and nothing related to the jobs works. What can I do to help you debug it?

Could not start job server watcher.

[Mystery Keeper]

Firefox edit boxes don't. I might try to fix it in vsedit, but that's a Qt control limitation, not a bug.

Reproduced it. Once again, that's a Qt control limitation. Might call it a bug. I probably can't fight it at all without committing to Qt code. Also, it's a very minor and avoidable nuisance. I'm inclined to ignore it.

Could not start job server watcher.
Have you built the job server and the watcher? You need to build the whole parent project, not just vsedit. Also note that you need QtNetwork and QtWebSocket components to build it now.

[Mystery Keeper]

R17 is out:
-BUGFIX: Blank preview on variable size video with fixed zoom ratio.
-BUGFIX: Saving new script.
-BUGFIX: Invalid context menu for editor.
-BUGFIX: Context menu behavior in preview.
-New multi-app architecture: editor, job server, server watcher.

You can now encode your script with a familiar dialog or enqueue an encoding job on job server.
Server Watcher acts both like a GUI frontend to server and as a bridge between the editor and various servers.
Server itself has no GUI, which makes it process the jobs faster.
Only one watcher instance can run at time, and you can connect it to remote server.
By default watcher starts or connects to local server.
Remote server only lets to edit jobs from whitelisted addresses.
Same goes for editing the white list. Initially only local watcher can do that.

JOBS CAN BE USED TO RUN ARBITRARY PROCESSES AND SHELL COMMANDS ON YOUR PC. ALLOWING REMOTE CONNECTIONS PUTS YOUR PC IN DANGER.

The 32bit version gives me: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application", both with installed and portable versions of VapourSynth R39.

V16 works fine with VS R39, installed and portable

Web search results coincide on "0xc000007b error usually comes from mixing up 32bit environment with 64bit one. For example 32bit application loads a 64bit dll causing 0xc000007b error (http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1991597/windows-bit-error-0xc000007b.html).

Could the cause be that some 64bit libs were erroneously included in the 32bit package ?

Indeed. Qt seems to has deployed wrong distribution. I'll fix it later today.

Hey guys!


First of all this steps I did it in my laptop (Win 8.1 64) and everything working perfectly , but When I did that in my Server (wind server 2012 - 64) I got an error

Fisrt I installed "python-3.6.2-amd64-webinstall" after that "python-3.6.2-amd64-webinstall_run_after_installed" + py scripts

Something wrong with your opencl install, either the minimum required version for this plug-ins to work is not supported by your car or bad driver install. Try reinstalling your graphic drivers and checking opencl versions.

Oh I saw it now, didn't notice that it auto saves a bookmark file in the same location as the script.

Can you also add a couple of seconds of feedback in the status bar like "frame 123 bookmarked" after an action? Because I'm doing it with hotkey, and when I do it for a long period of time, I would start to lose concentration on whether I hit the right hotkey.

[ChaosKing]

Why don't you automate the key frame extraction? You could save all I-frames to a txt file, see FrameProps http://www.vapoursynth.com/doc/functions/frameprops.html

Keyframes and scene changes are different things.

[lansing]

Keyframes and scene changes are different things.

Either way, they're not accurate enough. FrameProps will miss I-frame on blending transitions or scenes with similar color on the corner of the frames. So the best way to get all the key frames is manually recording them.

bookmarks file consists from comma-separated numeric values (frame numbers), just parse them with, say, python and do your stuff :)

[lansing]

Aside from the action feedback status bar, I would also like to request an option to display all bookmarks in a list so I can jump around between them. It's not navigable when I have hundreds of them.

You can jump around between the bookmarks. Either by CTRL+clicking the timeline, or by CTRL+arrows while in the preview dialog. And you don't need to keep every panel open in the preview dialog. Some of the buttons hide/show them.

I checked it, it was conflicting with the "time: step forward/back" action, but I'm pretty sure that I haven't touch these settings before. It should be settings of the older version that got carry over when I upgraded the program and got merged with the new settings, therefore the conflict.

How do I reset default for the hotkey?

That's right. I changed few hotkeys, and you had old settings carry over. I should put reset to default options in few sections. For now you can edit "vsedit.config" file and simply erase the "hotkeys" section. It is either in the application folder or in C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\Local\ on Windows. Somewhere in the home folder on Linux.

Is there an option to save and load bookmarks? I don't want to copying and pasting every time I make a change to a bookmark text that is not the default bookmark file.

I was saving a snap shot of the same frame from both adobe premiere and vs editor, both to png. The premiere one was in 32-bit, and the vs editor one was 24-bit. But the vs editor one is more than 2 times bigger in filesize, why is there a big difference?

1) maybe some process differences contributing . e.g. different chroma upscaling method

2) maybe poor png compression algorithm. I tested avspmod png and it was 5x smaller. The vsedit produced png could be reduced in less than half by running it through ffmpeg to recompress as png . Using pngcrush or other optimized png compressors could probably reduce it more

[Mystery Keeper]

vsedit saves the preview frame (after conversion) to PNG with Qt standard method. This fact won't change. You can save as WebP if you want.

Me and Myrsloik tried to root out that problem, but it doesn't seem to be in vsedit or VapourSynth. Probably some plugins don't free memory properly. There's nothing we can do about it.
