New to QTGMC, Nothing but headache.

[dellsam34]

I have a Sony VAIO laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Intel Core2 Duo T9800 @ 2.93Ghz each, 5GB RAM. Not the greatest but it should be okay.

I installed Avisynth+ and loaded QTGMC and the required plugins, However I had some errors about certain plugins missing so I went ahead and loaded every plugin possible for QTGMC in the Plugins64+ folder.

I had VCOMP120.dll and libmmd.dll missing from my machine and I was able to fix that by installing Intel C++ Redistributables.

Now I'm getting error messages about lines 636 and 879 in the QTGMC:

Line 636: QTGMC_Interpolate( ediInput, InputType, EdiMode, NNSize, NNeurons, EdiQual, EdiMaxD, EdiThreads, bobbed, ChromaEdi )
Line 879: default( Fallback, Input.QTGMC_Bob( 0,0.5 ) )

The commend I'm using is:

AviSource("C:\Users\............file.avi")
QTGMC()

I posted in a lot of video forums and no one was able to help me.

[stax76]

Maybe try staxrip, it has qtgmc working for both avisynth+ x64 and vapoursynth x64.

[Groucho2004]

First I suggest you use this tool to check your Avisynth installation and associated plugins:
https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=176079

Run the program, click "Save Info..." and post the created file.

Edit - Don't attach the file to a post, use pastebin.com or similar.

In the errors area it came up with the following:

OK, everything seems to be in order. Install the AIO vcredist and try again.

Should you still have problems, run the script with AVSMeter (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=174797) and report any errors.

[dellsam34]

I installed the package and run the checker and no errors reported however the QTGMC error stands.

https://forum.doom9.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=16912&stc=1&d=1564557798

Line 862: CEed = (ChromaEdi == "")

[dellsam34]

Can anyone post the latest QTGMC file and Avisynth for 64bit so I can start all over again? Could be a problem with my video sample?

[Groucho2004]

I don't see any error message, just the lines that produced the error. Which program do you use to load the script? Have you tried AVSMeter?

[dellsam34]

I don't see any error message, just the lines that produced the error. Which program do you use to load the script? Have you tried AVSMeter?

I'm just using avs file with text commend in it.
I removed the 64bit version and installed the 32 bit version but for whatever reason it always defaults to the 64bit location and returns error to load the video, so I guess I have to make the 64 bit version working.

Edit:
When I use QTGMC V3.358 I get an error about lines 879 and 636 but when I use QTGMC V3.357 I get an error about lines 862 and 620, Anyone from the developers team please?

[Groucho2004]

I'm just using avs file with text commend in it.I have no idea what that means. Can't you just follow the advice given?

[dellsam34]

The more applications I install the deeper the rabbit hole goes, I'm following the procedure outlined in Avisynth website, Type in a script save it with the extension .avs and open it with vdub, it can't be any easier than that.

[Groucho2004]

Type in a script save it with the extension .avs and open it with vdub, it can't be any easier than that.Correct. I still don't know what the error message is. So far you have only posted the lines in the QTGMC script that caused the error.

I'm following the procedure outlined in Avisynth websiteWhich web site?

[ChaosKing]

I'm following the procedure outlined in Avisynth website

FYI http://avs-plus.net/ is outdated, this one is recommended https://github.com/pinterf/AviSynthPlus/releases

[dellsam34]

Correct. I still don't know what the error message is. So far you have only posted the lines in the QTGMC script that caused the error.
After I hit ok on the error message vdub doesn't load a video just a grey window.

Yes that's what I have.
Edit: I only downloaded the avisynth alone, do I have to download the vc-redist package ?

[Groucho2004]

After I hit ok on the error message vdub doesn't load a video just a grey window.Just run the script with AVSMeter.

[Groucho2004]

Yes that's what I have.
Edit: I only downloaded the avisynth alone, do I have to download the vc-redist package ?You have the correct Avisynth version and no, you don't need any redistributables once you installed the AIO (which you did).

[dellsam34]

I installed the MT-r2772 with VC_redist still the same error message about lines 879 and 636. What commends are used for basic de-interlacing? maybe the commend I'm using is wrong.

[ChaosKing]

Does an avs file with just version() opens correctly in vdub?

And please RUN AVSMETER so we can help you ...

[dellsam34]

Just run the script with AVSMeter.

To be honest with you I don't know how to use AVSMeter, I just want to get the damn thing running error free, besides it is not like I'm the first one to use avs files on vdub, It should be a reason why I'm getting those errors and I'm pretty sure it has something to do with QTGMC or the commend I'm using.

[dellsam34]

Does an avs file with just version() opens correctly in vdub?

Yep, with no problems.

[Groucho2004]

After I hit ok on the error message vdub doesn't load a video just a grey window.Any chance you can post a screen shot of the error message before you hit OK?

[dellsam34]

Any chance you can post a screen shot of the error message before you hit OK?

I posted a screen shot in post #8

[Groucho2004]

I posted a screen shot in post #8That's not a screen shot. Also, why can't you use AVSMeter?

[dellsam34]

That's not a screen shot. Also, why can't you use AVSMeter?
I already told you I don't know how to use AVSMeter, As far as the screen shot I don't think the vdub background would be of any help but here it is anyway:

In the video he uses windows 10 I use windows 7, I still don't know how to make it work, When I click on the .exe file a window pops up and goes away quickly.

[dellsam34]

Ok I figured out how to run commend line, what should I type in it?

[Groucho2004]

Ok I figured out how to run commend line, what should I type in it?"AVSMeter yourscript.avs"

[dellsam34]

Could you paste some lines around line 879 from QTGMC.avsi?

Illegal Instruction means that a plugin does not support your processor. Either there are multiple versions of that DLL and you chose the wrong one (e.g. the DLL was compiled for using a modern AVX2 instruction set but your processor is an older one which supports only SSE 4.1), or that specific DLL has a bug.

The culprit could be be either yadifmod2_avx2.dll or nnedi3.dll (or both).
So, remove both yadifmod2_avx2.dll and nnedi3.dll. Then, download jpsdr's nnedi3 (https://github.com/jpsdr/NNEDI3/releases) and use the DLL from the "x64\Release_W7" directory.

[ChaosKing]

I'd say yadifmod2_avx2.dll is the culprit. Remove it and try again.

Is it somehow possible to check if a dll supports (or expects) a certain instruction like avx2? Like a minimum requirement?

[Groucho2004]

Is it somehow possible to check if a dll supports (or expects) a certain instruction like avx2?Possible? Maybe. You'd have to run a disassembler on the image and check for the specific instructions. Also, that disassembler has to support those instructions. However, knowing if the instruction set is a requirement or an option may be very difficult to figure out.

Avisynth or any plugin which implements differently optimized code path for different CPU architectures can contain any instruction set, still they won't crash. AVX2 code will not be chosen for an SSE4-only machine.

[Groucho2004]

Avisynth or any plugin which implements differently optimized code path for different CPU architectures can contain any instruction set, still they won't crash. AVX2 code will not be chosen for an SSE4-only machine.It will crash if you hard-code the instruction set. For example, using the "-QxCORE-AVX2" Intel compiler switch will/may generate AVX2 instructions. However, using the "QaXNNNN" version will also generate a IA32 code path.

[pinterf]

Yep, there should be a minimum set which probably does not crash on 99.9% of computers used for video processing (which is now I think the level of SSE4.1 or so)

So, remove both yadifmod2_avx2.dll and nnedi3.dll. Then, download jpsdr's nnedi3 (https://github.com/jpsdr/NNEDI3/releases) and use the DLL from the "x64\Release_W7" directory.

Ok, I removed avisynth from my computer and deleted all pluggings and I'm starting fresh, So let me know if anything goes wrong:

I first downloaded Avisynth+ r2772-MT, Then downloaded QTGMC v3.358s and put it in plugins64+ folder, After that I only downloaded the QTGMC core filters masktools2-v2.2.18, mvtools-2.7.41-with-depans, NNEDI3_v0_9_4_53, RgTools-0.97 and smdegrain.txt.

1- Masktools2-v2.2.18 has two options, with_dual_filter_signatures and normal x64, I chose normal x64 filter.
2- mvtools-2.7.41-with-depans has 3 filters in the x64 folder.
3- NNEDI3_v0_9_4_53 has a lot of folders in it so I picked up Release_Intel_W7_Core2_SSE4.2 folder - this seem to have solved the two lines error.
4- RgTools-0.97 has one x64 filter
5- Converted smdegrain.txt to smdegrain.avs in the default UTF-8 encoding (there are other options like ANSI)

I copied all the filters and put them in the C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins64+ folder.

With this new install I'm getting an error message about line 437:

Line 437: planarClip = yuy2 ? clip.nonyuy2clipin(true) : clip

1. You really have trouble following instructions. I specifically wrote to pick the nnedi3.dll from the "Release_W7" directory. Your CPU does not support SSE4.2.

2. Scripts have to be saved in Ansi encoding, not UTF-8.

3. Again, for the umphteenth time, "Line 437: planarClip = yuy2 ? clip.nonyuy2clipin(true) : clip" is not an error message.

[dellsam34]

All you have to do is to follow my advice in post #38:

Yes I tried both release W7 and Release_Intel_W7_Core2_SSE4.2 and both gave the same error message about line 437. But I'm on release_W7 now and I changed the txt file to ANSI coding but still getting "not error" on Line 437.

What a horrible nightmare... :devil:

Since every different script version requires matching plugin versions, why did nobody so far come up with the idea to upload AIO packages for different target systems? Like one 64-bit version for AVS+ 64, one 32-bit version for AVS 2.60 and AVS+ 32, and (maybe) a basic version for Win XP and a non-SSE2 CPU?

For the latter use case I do have an AIO package available (even Katie B. liked it), here is the link:
https://files.videohelp.com/u/172211/QTGMC%20for%20Win%20XP%20No-SSE2.zip

It is 32-bit only, so don't bother installing AVS+ 64. Just make sure that your VC++ redistributables are installed and remove all duplicate plugins from your "AviSynth\Plugins" folder (that's mainly mvtools, masktools and RGTools and needi). After doing this my package "just works".

but still getting "not error" on Line 437.That bit convinced me that I'm wasting my time. Use a gui like staxrip or similar.

50% nonsense and 50% bad advice and FUD. Congrats.

It's only a nightmare if you don't have a clue about Avisynth and are unable to read/understand simple instructions.

Also, nobody cares about your non-SSE2 stories. Only you and a sheep farmer in a remote village in Kazakhstan have non-SSE2 CPUs.

[ChaosKing]

Sigh.

2. Scripts have to be saved in Ansi encoding, not UTF-8.



Do they? I have several avs files in utf8 (and even unix line breaks) -> no problems.

That seems work in avs+

[Groucho2004]

That seems work in avs+Everything up to character code 127 is ASCII encoded in UTF-8. Try characters above that range.

Anyway, maybe pinterf implemented reading of UTF-8 encoded scipts and I missed it.

Groucho I followed every instruction you gave me, I'm not claiming I know Avisynth because if I did this thread would have never existed, I reported every error or message or whatever you want to call it to the best of my knowledge, If helping me became a pain to you sorry for the inconvenience, I'm not entitled to anyone's help but if someone wants to help I really do appreciate it.

AVISource, AVIFileSource, WAVSource, OpenDMLSource, Import and Subtitle can have an "utf8" boolean parameter.
In this case - though the script itself has to be in ansi encoding and cannot have utf8 BOM at the beginning of the file - the filename parameter or subtitle text is treated as a utf8 sequence. Thus one can open scripts or videos having unicode file name and path or display unicode text, such as seen in the example of Subtitle (http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Subtitle)

I do remember recently trying to load a script that had a UTF-8 BOM and it failed:
"UTF-8 source files are not supported, re-save script with ANSI encoding!"

I loaded the AnimeIVTC_v2.20.avsi plugin and that took care of the YUV2 Vdub error message, Now it's pointing to another line:


Line 494: srchClip = tv_range && !srchcheck ? srchClip.Dither_Luma_Rebuild(S0=Str,c=Amp,slice=false,lsb=lsb,uv=CMmt) : srchClip

Yes I did, the first page I have read and downloaded the core plugins from, But I guess that's not accurate when they say I should be fine with just the core plugins when in fact I had to download more than that. I would be more than happy to pay for the product if they sell it and stand behind it rather than throw a half baked stuff out there for free that it requires an IT degree to get it working.

Yes I'm aware of 2 or three later versions but they have their own problems and I have no interest to dive into that.

[videoh]

I would be more than happy to pay Give me $250 and remote access to your machine and I will get it working for you. :)

[Stereodude]

I'll do it for $249.99...



Actually, no I wont.

Do you know how to use Google? A search for dither_luma_rebuild should point you in the right direction.

that how I was when I used avs first time, I didn't ask anyone but google :rolleyes:

and seems dellsam34 didn't read the wiki clearly since dither_luma_rebuild is part of SMDegrain :)

[ChaosKing]

You could use AVSRepoGUI https://github.com/theChaosCoder/VSRepoGUI/releases/download/v0.5/AVSRepoGUI.zip
It will download qtgmc (newest version) and most of its dependencies. Copy then all downlaoded files (see plugins+scripts folder) to your avs plugins folder.

Currently it's free but only for a limited time!!! After that only $245.95 xD

OP has a similar thread going at videohelp. I hope he is not mixing and matching advice.

Real.finder you finally found the last piece of the puzzle, Error message for line 494 is caused by a wrong extension, Finally no more error messages.
Vdub is rendering the video at 5 frames a second is this normal or my CPU is slow?

congrats for finally making it work.
It depends on which resolution your video has, what functions+parameters you use and by some other factors... but yes your cpu is also slow.

[dellsam34]

I was not impressed by my first de-interlacing job, a lot of motion blur, although I'm just using the basic QTGMC() commend, How do I really experiment with this since I can't monitor video in real time, What commends should I be looking for?

Here is the sample I was experimenting with, It's a S-VHS capture:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/j7caxovs7f7alea/500-USB_CAP.zip/file

.

[ChaosKing]

this looks good to me
ffms2("500-USB S-Video Capture.avi")
QTGMC( Preset="Slow" )
SelectEven()
prefetch(2)

You should not compare your s-vhs capture (dvd res) with a full hd source. It will always look worse.

You could add prefetch(2) at the end of your script, it should give you a couple fps more.

I don't do game captures from component so no HD for me, Most of my videos are VHS, Video8, Hi8, Betamax and Betacam SP captures, in either PAL or NTSC. I will be using QTGMC for the important ones (I have two videos for now) the rest I will just use Vdub/yadif output and call it a day.

I will try prefetch(2) and maybe rise up the number until I crash the system and go back to a working number.

[kuchikirukia]

Chaos, why would you ruin an interlaced encode with selecteven()? Do you turn your 24fps encodes into 12, too?

[tebasuna51]

Chaos, why would you ruin an interlaced encode with selecteven()? Do you turn your 24fps encodes into 12, too?

The QTGMC output is double framerate than input because make a complet frame from each field of interlaced frame.

If the input is 24 fps the QTGMC output is 48 fps, for that selecteven() when we want the same fps input.
