VirtualDub2

[rgr]

Should I only have the "Cache input driver" to choose from when opening MP4 files?

I've never paid much attention to it, but I remember there used to be others (like "FF-something").

[LigH]

There is a separate AVI source filter compatible with the ancient roots of VfW.

And there may have been input plugins for earlier VirtualDub versions which developed into the current ffmpeg based "Cached input driver", I believe...

[rgr]

Thanks. So its normal.


Another problem.

I have a file compressed with ffmpeg -c:v libx265.
So it's probably correct. It has a rather unusual framerate, "fpsnum=59972,fpsden=1000)"

VirtualDub (the latest test version and the previous one as well) won't read it, crashing on frame 453 during playback.
When jumping to the end of the file and rewinding frame by frame, you can see that the last frames are duplicates (even though they aren't).
MPC plays correctly.

Edit: I tested it with version VD 44282. It works fine there, no issues. Both with "Cache input driver" and with "FFmpeg (supported files)"

[rgr]

VirtualDub ignores the _Matrix and _ColorRange flags when loading AviSynth scripts (it always assumes they are BT601 and limited).

I don't know if this will help, but for ffmpeg to recognize these flags, you need to use: ffmpeg.exe -avisynth_flags +all -i... .

I don't know if this will help, but for ffmpeg to recognize these flags, you need to use: ffmpeg.exe -avisynth_flags +all -i... .
ffmpeg enables 6 out of the 7 current frame property flags by default, -avisynth_flags isn't necessary unless you want to turn them off.

The only flag that ffmpeg does not enable by default is SAR, because that one relies on much more user awareness considering how common it is to resize things in AviSynth scripts.

As far as I remember, VirtualDub/VirtualDub2 (like many other applications) work with AviSynth scripts as with a virtual AVI file (system components are used).
For this reason, VirtualDub does not receive additional video stream parameters.

Bad news...
However, VDub can probably abandon the default BT601, or at least apply the rule that if the height is >=720px, BT709 is assumed.
At least some information about the decoding format (BT601/709/RGB, limited/full range, etc.) on the bottom bar would be useful :)

Yes. I opened your files. I pressed the "Output Playback" button. The file played and VirtualDub2 x64 v2.4.0.877 did not crash.

[LigH]

The file type group "All media types (dozens of extensions...)" in the "File - Open video file..." dialog does not contain *.wmv as supported filename extension, although the container is supported and detected as "asf" by the "Caching input driver" when I select "All files (*.*)" as file type group.

The current list of supported video formats for the Caching input driver is:
"FFmpeg : video|*.mp4;*.mov;*.mkv;*.webm;*.flv;*.avi;*.nut"
This limitation is present in older versions as well. Many formats are missing because the plugin has problems getting the correct frame for video files without an index. This mainly concerns MPEG-TS. WMV/ASP files can have variable frame rates, and the format itself is poorly supported by FFmpeg.

[LigH]

I also noticed processing audio from WMVs with LwLibavAudioSource being unreliable, jumping to previous locations when using Trim's in an AviSynth+ script.

So I guess both issues can be solved by remultiplexing the WMV source files to MKV using ffmpeg.

Other observations :

- remuxing into mp4 using lsmash or mp4box - still has problem in vdub2 seeking, but not necessarily other programs

- adjusting some settings like increasing max cache memory for the caching input driver did not seem to help


- but remuxing into mkv using mkvmerge makes robust seeking ok in vdub2. So it's unlikely a hevc bitstream or caching input driver decoding problem only (there might be some combination of factors)

It seems to be a problem with the H265+openGOP combination. Files with closed GOP do not cause problems.
Unfortunately, openGOP is enabled by default in H265 encoder, so the issue affects most (all?) MP4+H265 files.

Volt. Can you update cch_input.ini to include eac3 audio.

[rgr]

Are earlier versions of VirtualDub available?
The latest version (877) crashes when saving projects.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Load a file (mp4, avi, avs).
2. Filters->Add->Deshaker (3.1)->OK (this specific filter)
3. Save Project--> The system hangs for a moment, then VirtualDub closes and the .vdproject file is 0 bytes.

It worked before, but I only changed the VDub version.

I found the cause. If I leave the default path in the Deshaker filter ("C:\Users\Właściciel\AppData\Local\Deshaker"), VDub crashes when saving the project. Until I save the project, VDub (or rather the filter) saves everything correctly to that path.

I didn't understand you.
In my VD2 builds, the 'cch_input.ini' file is replaced by 'avlib-1.ini' and is no longer included in the build. It only appears after changing the "Caching Input Driver" settings. You can write whatever you want there.

Well, v0lt said he will not provide any in his releases. But when you configure the plugin, the file gets created, and then it persists. So you can edit it yourself.

There is a trick (some people found it too difficult) to reverse video only (not the sound): use fflayer filter, point it the file you want to reverse, set follow timeline from to last frame number, rate -1.

I don't see any improvement. Now I can't save the project file at all after enabling the Deshaker filter. It saves a 0-byte file, and after a while, VDub automatically closes.

Edit: OK, I found it.
Now, after entering the following path in the folder field (Deshaker plugin): "E:\$ moje\_gitarowy", the project cannot be saved. But I think the thing that wasn't working before is working now -- the "." path :)

I remade the settings of all codecs in avlib_vdplugin. But there is protection against incorrect settings. To reproduce your problem, please provide your video file and project file (v2.3).

It looks pretty obvious to me that 0x31564646 (FFV1) is the correct video codec FourCC, but 0x0000ff01 is something else.
In the old versions to identify the encoder, the FourCC codec was used. In new versions, I left this so that you could make several encoders for one codec and not conflict with other third -party encoders.

In general, scripts for old versions will not be compatible with version v2.4 if you use avlib_vdplugin.

OK i start new project and one by one go through the old project filter list to see which is causing the crash.

VirtualDub.video.filters.instance[3].Config(0x0404,0xFFFF,0x00FFFE89,0x0000,0xFFFF, 1); becomes
VirtualDub.video.filters.instance[3].Config(0x0404,0xFFFF,0x00FFFE8F,0x0000,0xFFFF, 1);

VirtualDub.video.filters.instance[7].Config(0x0000,0xFFFF,0x01000000,0x0000,0xFFFF, 1); becomes

Graduation curves will not work after too many attempts. Even if it is the only filter, it crashes.
Deshaker will not work after too many attempts. Even if it is the only filter, it crashes.

Your project file doesn't work because the forum breaks the script markup and I don't have all the filters you added to the script.
2.4 that i create to find the error with new project file
This project file disables video panels. No crash, but still weird.

You are better off hosting project files and other files on file sharing sites.
For text files, you can use sites like Pastebin (https://pastebin.com/).

Please provide the "FF Deband" filter.

Are you kidding me. You need the whole package.

https://codecpack.co/download/FFInputDriver.html

download from Download: FFMpeg Input Plugin 2.0 (57.0 MB)

Install 64bit inside vdub plugins64 folder. It will extract all and create new folder ffdlls for ffmpeg files. Do not delete or change those files inside ffdlls as the filters will rely on them and not your ffmpeg files in root folder.


In fact it would be great if you can put these filters in your next build to save everyone time having to copy them over.

[LigH]

I see a risk of redundancy here. Most of the features this pack provides (via FFInputDriver.vdplugin, built in 2021) seems to be already covered by VirtualDub2 v2.x (via avlib-1.vdplugin, built in 2025).

Original source URL: https://github.com/h4aLkon/smldap/releases/

The additional filters are in the plugins{32|64}\*.vdf files in the ZIP archive; I would recommend to try not to add any other files to a recent VirtualDub2 installation.
