StaxRip 2.0 Support Thread

[Patman]

@Patman

...

Any idea?

Please download the new version, an error occurred while compiling :scared:

[Arkana]

did you try DFTTEST it's one of the most popular denoisers.
thanks, will give it a try
It depends on the type of noise you want to remove. Is this an SD or HD source? Old movie that has been digitized? B&W or color?

Take a look at SMDegrain and mClean.

Please download the new version, an error occurred while compiling :scared:

You mean ffmpeg-N-97833-gc94550eb31-gb707abf091-gcc10.1.0.7z, right?

Unfortunately, ffmpeg.exe does not return anything this time.

For example, even the simplest command in the unarchived folder

.\ffmpeg.exe -version

returns nothing.

ffmpeg-N-97833-gc94550eb31-gb707abf091-gcc10.1.0.7z is correct, but it's strange that your command gave no feedback... i got following feedback with the downloaded version

Thanks for remembering, but after talking with you about mpv/mpv.net failing to read a non-single-byte language named avs file on a non-UTF8 codepage system, I changed the codepage to UTF8.

I find the topic text encoding difficult but interesting and important. Regarding this avisynth issue I found something (https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/7cfftq/wm4_talks_about_c_locales/) few days ago that is somehow related.

Well, it's pretty weird.

I re-downloaded the file, but I still get the same result: no return.

Maybe we need someone else's help about this.
Can anyone join us and test it please?

Just tested ffmpeg.exe -version, i get the error:

Well, AFAIK, libbrotlidec.dll is a Brotli compression library included in mingw64 / MSYS2. (Here (https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-brotli).)

I guess there was something wrong in the course of making ffmpeg static. (Not sure though.)

If I do more guesswork, I think it's related to MSYS2 and GCC 10.1.0.

:thanks:

Indeed, there shouldn't be such depencies !
and you're welcome :-)

[44vince44]

Then, copying libbrotlidec.dll next to ffmeg.exe generates another error: libbrotlicommon.dll is missing.
Copying that one fixes the problem and i get the following output:

[mcjordan]

Stax, do you plan to update the FrameServer generally to AviSynth headers interface V8 ?
There are a huge list of plugins that which are already in line with it or are in the process of the adapting.
Later I will publish what I have followed so far.

I don't know if I should but can ask an avisynth dev.

Has anybody tried AviSynth+ 3.6.0, QTGMC working?

[mcjordan]

Not yet, but maybe later. I'm terribly tired, I'll continue tomorrow morning. Excuse me, Stax.

DirectN library have an update - 1.90

[colinhunt]

A bit of a mystery here, would appreciate any advice on how to solve.

StaxRip 2.1.1.4 on two PCs, both AMD Zen CPUs, both with Nvidia GPUs (1080Ti & 2080 Super). Both running same version of Win10, AviSynth+ and other dependencies as far as I can tell.

When I drop a file in StaxRip and try to set MCTemporalDenoise (Avisynth), the 1080Ti one has no problem, but the 2080 Super one says this:

"Cannot load file 'C:/Users/xxxxxx/Desktop/videotools/Stax2114/Apps/Plugins/AVS/FFT3DGPU/FFT3dGPU.dll' Platform returned code 126: the specified module could not be found.

But the .dll is definitely in that directory. I can't figure out why this is happening or how to fix it.

One thing that you can check is what MS Visual C libraries are installed on each machine. It is possible that there is a dependency and the machine with the 2080 Super doesn't have something installed that the 1080 machine does.

Is there no more DGIndexNV Support in the newest BETA?

LSMASHVideoSource only supports .mp4 and it's an index free source filter because the container format allows that.

Is there no more DGIndexNV Support in the newest BETA? It's not hard-wired in anymore, which is a reasonable decision. You can still use DGDecNV but you have to jump through a hoop or two. No big deal. It's been addressed here and a search should help you along.

It's not something I know much or have interest, I hope somebody else can help, maybe ask in the synth section or better in the l-smash support thread.

[Atlantis]

Yes, it is the LSMASHVideoSource reader. Maybe it is good after all to index!

I put the file in an mkv container and now it encodes without any error.

[JKyle]

As you know, starting with 2.1.0.8, StaxRip stopped supporting DG Tools natively in the app {per the developer's request (X)}.
<= fix: see this post (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1913599#post1913599).

Four tools are affected by this change: DGIndexNV, DGSource, DGTonemap, and DGHDRtoSDR.

Among them, DGIndexNV and DGSource are packaged as DGDecNV (http://rationalqm.us/dgdecnv/dgdecnv.html), which is a non-free program you need to buy for $15.

In this post, I show how to register DGIndexNV and DGSource using the StaxRip macro %startup_dir% (https://staxrip.readthedocs.io/macros.html) assuming that a purchased/licensed copy of DGDecNV is unzipped to a folder somewhere under the app folder which is denoted by the macro %startup_dir%.

Here, I assume DGDecNV folder is %startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV.

For this setup, you need to launch a new StaxRip window without any project.


1. DGSource

1) Add DGSource in AVS Filters => Profiles

https://i.imgur.com/3Ie27Sp.jpg

Under the [Source] section, add the following lines:

DGSource =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")
DGSource("%source_file%")

https://i.imgur.com/SPclIBU.jpg


2) Add DGSource as a source filter

Go to Tools => Settings, and register DGSource as a source filter for dgi.

https://i.imgur.com/NaHbHuW.jpg


For VapourSynth, switch to VapourSynth and repeat similar steps as follows:

https://i.imgur.com/UzDx8od.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/H1vU3NY.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/0ZBxOaX.jpg

DGSource =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
core.std.LoadPlugin(r"%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")
clip = core.dgdecodenv.DGSource(r"%source_file%")


https://i.imgur.com/mjKm3Dk.jpg


2. DGIndexNV

Under Preprocessing in Settings, register DGIndexNV as a command line demuxer.

https://i.imgur.com/H4L3Maa.jpg

You can create 2 types of demuxers with DGIndexNV depending on the input file types.


[Index, No demux]

https://i.imgur.com/myPXRv5.jpg
Arguments:-i %source_files_comma% -o "%source_temp_file%.dgi" -h

Depending on your situation, you may want to add additional Input File Types.

See this (https://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1913795&postcount=1914).


[Index & Demux]

https://i.imgur.com/1UZsVPZ.jpg
Arguments:-i %source_files_comma% -o "%source_temp_file%.dgi" -a -h

Make sure to put the command that points to DGIndexNV.exe file directly since DGIndexNV is not registered internally under Apps => Manage.

"%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGIndexNV.exe"

[videoh]

per the developer's request. Sorry but that is false. As I mentioned several times, I asked that instead of bundling my binaries that links be provided. Completely removing the dedicated support was stax76's decision.

Nevertheless, thank you for your guide. It will help a lot of people, I hope. :goodpost:

[JKyle]

Sorry but that is false. As I mentioned several times, I asked that instead of bundling my binaries that links be provided. Completely removing the dedicated support was stax76's decision.

I see. Sorry about the misunderstanding. I fixed the post accordingly.

BTW, I have a question: Are DGTonemap and DGHDRtoSDR free of charge?
My understanding is that they are free to use, but I want to double check.

I'd like to put a post on setting up those two filters in StaxRip after your confirmation.

:thanks:

[videoh]

Appreciate that! Yes, they are free for end users to use for their personal purposes. Get them from my website to be sure to have latest versions. I hope they are useful and thank you for your work, JKyle. It will help many.

https://i.postimg.cc/597zVrkR/settings.png

I just tried to convert it but got this error

Error Audio encoding 1 using eac3to 3.34 (2.1.1.5)

Audio encoding 1 using eac3to 3.34 returned error exit code: 1 (0x1)

It's unclear what the exit code means, in case it's a Windows system error then it possibly means:

Incorrect function

Any help is appreciated.

Think I've got it did the same mistake as last time had to change the extension to mpg and it worked fine.

[stax76]

Re-open the project under:

File > Recent Projects


In the audio settings you can try:

Encoder > qaac


After that override/replace the AAC audio profile to use qaac, it's probably better and should be made the default AAC encoder.

[lordalibaski]

Cheers mate will try that on my next conversion see if its any better.

Ps...just a small question regarding the actual bitrate of the audio when setting it to encode to aac it always puts it down to AAC 106 kbps, I have just set the encoder now to use qaac like you said what setting should I be setting it on to get the same bitrate as 256 AC3.

I changed it to qaac CBR 256 is that correct?

As we can register DGDecNV in StaxRip (>2.1.0.7) using macros (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1913597#post1913597), we can add DGTonemap & DGHDRtoSDR filters in a similar way as follows.


■ Download & unzip the filter files

Download DGTonemap (http://rationalqm.us/DGTonemap.rar) and DGHDRtoSDR (http://rationalqm.us/hdr/DGHDRtoSDR_1.13.rar) from the developer's site.

Make sure to put x64 versions.

DGTonemap supports AviSynth only while DGHDRtoSDR supports both AviSynth and VapourSynth.

For convenience, I assume you put the filters in somewhere under the StaxRip app folder as follows:

%startup_dir%Apps\Plugins\AVS\DGToneMap\
%startup_dir%Apps\Plugins\Dual\DGHDRtoSDR\


Now open an empty StaxRip window and do the following setting.


■ AviSynth filters

Open and edit AVS profiles:
https://i.imgur.com/3Ie27Sp.jpg


<DGTonemap>

Replace/Add the following item related to DGTonemap under the [Color] section:
https://i.imgur.com/Cqrxkco.jpg


HDRCore | Tone Mapping =
# DGTonemap setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Plugins\AVS\DGToneMap\DGTonemap.dll")
$select:msg:Select the Map Tone You Wish to Use;DGReinhard|DGReinhard();DGHable|DGHable()$


<DGHDRtoSDR>

Replace/Add the following item related to DGHDRtoSDR under the [Color] section:
https://i.imgur.com/DB5lAuV.jpg


DGHDRtoSDR =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Plugins\Dual\DGHDRtoSDR\DGHDRtoSDR.dll")
DGHDRtoSDR(mode="$select:msg:Select transfer function;Perceptual Quantizer|pq;Hybrid Log Gamma|hlg$", white=$enter_text:Enter overall brightness in integer (max 3,000 for PQ, max 10,000 for HLG)$)



■ VapourSynth filters

Change the filters type from AviSynth to VapourSynth by clicking Fiter Setup => VapourSynth:
https://i.imgur.com/UzDx8od.jpg

Open and edit VS profiles:
https://i.imgur.com/H1vU3NY.jpg

<DGHDRtoSDR>

Replace/Add the following item related to DGHDRtoSDR under the [Color] section:
https://i.imgur.com/fNPipCt.jpg


DGHDRtoSDR =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
core.std.LoadPlugin(r"%startup_dir%Apps\Plugins\Dual\DGHDRtoSDR\DGHDRtoSDR.dll")
clip = core.dghdrtosdr.DGHDRtoSDR(clip, mode="$select:msg:Select transfer function;Perceptual Quantizer|pq;Hybrid Log Gamma|hlg$", white=$enter_text:Enter overall brightness in integer (max 3,000 for PQ, max 10,000 for HLG)$)



You can edit the profile code by referring to the StaxRip macros document (https://staxrip.readthedocs.io/macros.html).

Thanks JKyle, this was very useful !

[JKyle]

Thanks JKyle, this was very useful !

You're welcome. :)

BTW, I found a syntax error in DGHDRtoSDR VS filter core.std.LoadPlugin call in my original post.

path=

is obsolete. So I replaced it with

r

I've updated the post, so update your code in your app please.

@JKyle
I'm very sorry, but I think I still need your help :(
I exactcly followed your HowTo for registering DGIndexNV and DGSource, verified everything many times, but I always get an error message, when I want to load a Video-file. Here an Example with an MPEG2-File (this worked with Staxrip 2.1.1.2 (Beta), the last Version supporting DGIndexNV):


Script error: There is no function named 'DGSource'.
(D:\Video-Encode\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice_temp\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice_source.avs, line 1)

DGSource("D:\Video-Encode\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice.mpv")


My StaxRip-Folder is located here: C:\Sonstiges\StaxRip-Beta-x64. I copied the DGDecNV-Folder (including 64-Bit-Versions of DGDecodeNV.dll, DGIndexNV.exe and my Licence file) into that directory: C:\Sonstiges\StaxRip-Beta-x64\Apps\Support\


In both created demuxers, the command points to: "%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGIndexNV.exe"
I also tried: "C:\Sonstiges\StaxRip-Beta-x64\Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGIndexNV.exe"
I filled out the rest of the fields with the informations from your Manual.


I added DGSource as a source filter for dgi (Avisynth AND Vapoursynth) and also edited the AVS and VS-Filter-Profiles as described by copying and pasting all the texts from your code boxes to the places where they belong. Afterwards I exited Staxrip, started it again, but I still get that error Message above mentioned. What did I wrong? (Please don't blame on me, I'm new to Staxrip)...

[lordalibaski]

@ stax

The qaac works brilliant mate thanks for that much easier to do than to change the extension all the time.

Just a question mate I have asked this before about boosting the volume on certain vhs captures I used this command

-af dynaudnorm=p=0.94:m=70:s=22


It works when I'm doing ac3 audio but it doesn't work with qaac can the audio boost be done when converting to qaac?

thanks

Here an Example with an MPEG2-File (this worked with Staxrip 2.1.1.2 (Beta), the last Version supporting DGIndexNV):


Script error: There is no function named 'DGSource'.
(D:\Video-Encode\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice_temp\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice_source.avs, line 1)

DGSource("D:\Video-Encode\Evanescence - Sweet Sacrifice.mpv")



It seems like you didn't include LoadPlugin in avs profiles.
See if this line is missing in DGSource = before calling DGSource("%source_file%")

LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")

[bananenmann]

I put this into the [Source] - Section of my AVS-Filter-Profile:


DGSource =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")
DGSource("%source_file%")



And I put this into the [Source] - Section of my VS-Filter-Profile:


DGSource =
# Setting is changed since 2.1.0.8 after native DG Tools support is dropped.
core.std.LoadPlugin(r"%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")
clip = core.dgdecodenv.DGSource(r"%source_file%")

[JKyle]

This is part of my edited AVS-Profile:

[Source]
Automatic = # can be configured at: Tools > Settings > Source Filters
AviSource = AviSource("%source_file%", audio=false)

DGSource =
LoadPlugin("%startup_dir%Apps\Support\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll")
DGSource("%source_file%")

.
.
.

LoadPlugin(...) and DGSource(...) should be indented.
Otherwise, DGSource(...) is recognized as a separate item.

[bananenmann]

Sorry, I pasted it wrong here... they are indented. See my edited post above (#1899) ... That's exactly how it looks like... but I still get the error message. It seems that the DGDecodeNV.dll still isn't loaded. Silly Question: There is no file called DGSource, right? I just need the files DGDecodeNV.dll, DGIndexNV.exe and my own license.txt in the DGDecNV-Folder, is this correct?

Are you shure there is no typing error in your Manual? It's getting late now, maybe we should sleep over one night.
Thank you for your great effort and help. Good night !!!

Hello, which parameter should be keep/changed to encode HDR10+
For HDR10 (not plus) is pretty easy, staxrip loads the HDR metadata automatically
but not for HDR10+
