SuperEQ with AVS+

[GillesH]

This internal filter SuperEQ does not seem to be recognized in AVS+.
I specified "ConvertAudioToFloat".
And I have this error message :
"Script error: There is no function named 'SuperEQ'"

It works normally with AVS-MT.
Thanks for your advice.

[StainlessS]

Post your script.


And by the way, to any Wiki Editor, There are 18 bands.

SuperEq
Changes
v2.61 The band gain arguments can only be int. It's now enforced as such.
v2.60 Added custom band setting to allow all 16 bands to be set from script.
v2.54 Initial Release.


EDIT: "Post your script."
Nah, you need to have the Shibatch.dll available, autoload or manual load. (is I think builtin in earlier version of avisynth). [Check you plugins]

EDIT: Copied dll to my plugins [I only copy if I use them], and I'm getting same error message as GillesH using Wiki example. [well got that message once, but script mostly just freezes, something badly wrong]

EDIT: Oops, it worked this time after about 30 or 40 seconds of total inactivity.

EDIT: Also see OPT_AllowFloatAudio and other related stuff:- http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Internal_functions#OPT_UseWaveExtensible

global OPT_AllowFloatAudio = true ## default false
Float audio is converted to 16 bit when frameserving through ACM, unless OPT_AllowFloatAudio is set to true (this option enables WAVE_FORMAT_IEEE_FLOAT audio output[1]). In that case the audio is kept as it is. When accessing AviSynth directly (like MeGUI, BeHappy or ffmpeg do for example), there is no automatic conversion.

The automatic conversion is done for clients that cannot handle Float audio (in the old days most of them couldn't). Note conversion takes place after the script processing is finished. Float audio is always allowed within the script.

[pinterf]

It exists but in a separate dll: look for Shibatch.dll

Let me guess - You're using megui and have it set to use its "internal" or "portable" avisynth.dll, right?

[StainlessS]

You might have nailed it there G2K4 [but I did get same message once with plug in my plugins - when attempting to kill player whilst in freeze mode].
I just rough timed it (colorbars script prev given) @ about 25 seconds till it does anything [stuck on frame 0], is this normal ?

The script is very simple (it's just for testing) and similar to your first example, StainlessS.
And it works very well with AVS-MT.
It is used internally and tested with AvsPMod and Vdub2.

I downloaded Shibatch.dll and installed in the Plugins directory, and it's the same problem.
Still the non recognition of SuperEQ.

Afterwards, I forced the recognition of Shibatch.dll by specifying a LoadPlugin("Shibatch.dll").
With this command, I have another error message :
"Shibatch.dll can not be used as a plugin for Avisynth"

Is the version I found on the web compliant ? I have a doubt !
Is Shibatch.dll compatible with 32 bits?
If you have a proper link. Thank you.

I am testing, currently, AVS+ 32bits with many functions very similar to the scripts of Fred or John.
Many plugins work very well with AVS+ 32, and that's fine. Except this SuperEQ and the RunTime Functions (already reported in another post).

But I'm going to test the latest indications of StainlessS.

[StainlessS]

Is it the correct version ?
Use the dll supplied with your version of Avs+ [or download the whole avs+ thing again].

EDIT: although I did also get an 'unrecognised' type message once when it was in plugs.

EDIT: The message I got was only visible for a flash instant, it is possible that it was from an earlier left open instance of Potplayer or vdub2
from before I installed in the plugs directory, so that might be a 'red herring'.
[EDIT: Think I might have been clicking on multiple windows close buttons, little 'x' top RHS of window, and only just saw the message for an instant before the window closed]

[pinterf]

Downloaded from where?
Go to https://github.com/pinterf/AviSynthPlus/releases/ and get
AvisynthPlus-r2772-MT-filesonly.zip or 7z.
You can find the individual plugin files there.

[GillesH]

Sorry, but I did not remember anymore that Shibatch.dll was included in the AVS+ package.
I tested with the latest version beta r2900 and EVERYTHING WORKS NORMALLY.
Thank you very much for your indications.

It would be nice to add on the SuperEQ web page (Wiki) that it is necessary to install Shibatch.dll when using AVS+.
Example : "Requirements : AVS+ : Shibatch.dll"

Thanks again.
:thanks:

[Groucho2004]

It would be nice to add on the SuperEQ web page (Wiki) that it is necessary to install Shibatch.dll when using AVS+.
Example : "Requirements : AVS+ : Shibatch.dll"Why? It's part of AVS+. You could argue the same for the other included plugins such as ConvertStacked.dll, TimeStretch.dll, ImageSeq.dll, etc. which cause the same problems for people who don't install AVS+ properly.

No offense but this is just a ridiculous request.

[GillesH]

It was just a suggestion.
Because if you do not need SuperEQ, why install useless Plugins ?
If the info had been available on Wiki, my memory would have worked.
Additions to information are always positive, even if they are redundant.
But this post will allow others users not to make the same mistake as me. But, we must fall on it ....

[Groucho2004]

why install useless Plugins ?To avoid threads like this one?

If the info had been available on Wiki, my memory would have worked.Anyone who installs AVS+ properly would not even run into this problem. What difference does it make if it's an internal function as in classic Avisynth or moved to a plugin as it has been done in AVS+? I actually like that third party stuff has been moved to plugins instead of cramming it into the core.[/QUOTE]

[GillesH]

I really appreciate your work, Groucho2004.
And I agree that we can move internal functions of AVS into a Plugin. No problem for that.

As long as you know where you are going !
Personally, I like to know what is the purpose of such a function or plugin and how to use it.
And do not install a lot of Plugins without knowing what I'm doing.

In the AviSynth+ (wiki) explanation, there should be a chapter on using the associated plugins.
As for the use of "MT Notes" which is very well detailed.

But if there is a place that includes all the AVS+ associated Plugins and where we find a quick explanation on the use of each of these plugins, thank you to tell us.

[StainlessS]

I gotta go with GillesH on this one, at least a line in docs about being no longer a builtin & now a sepatate plugin, would not be out of order(for all such function/filters).

Maybe I'm missing something. This part is particularly confusing:

All functions that used to be in classic Avisynth are also present in AVS+. They are also all documented on the Avisynth Wiki web site.

Here's the list of functions that were "externalised" in AVS+ (not including functions new to AVS+):
ImageReader
ImageSource
ImageSourceAnim
ImageWriter
LoadVirtualdubPlugin
SSRC
SuperEQ
TimeStretch

And by the way, classic Avisynth also includes plugins such as DSS and TCPDeliver.

[Groucho2004]

a line in docs about being no longer a builtin & now a sepatate plugin, would not be out of order(for all such function/filters).No, it would not be out of order. But who knows, some users coming across that line may get confused and start posting questions such as "I read something about external plugins, where do I get them? Can I not just install AVS+?". :sly:

[GillesH]

Groucho2004, thanks for these details that we do not find easily.
It would be perfect if these different functions were also associated with the name of the Plugin concerned.
And, it will be ideal to put this in the Avisynth+ wiki.
And you can indicate that these plugins are available in the AVS+ package.
I think of all those who will ask the same questions as me.
Thank you.
