View Full Version : Is there a 64bit version of SubtitleEx?

I have installed Avisynth+ 3.4 along with ffms2.dll (for FFmpegSource2 - I work with AVC MP4 files), VirtualDub and MPC-HC, everything in 64bit on my Windows 7 SP1 x64. All this works smooth.

I'd like to use external filter SubtitleEx but I can only find 32bit library.

Is there a 64bit version available somewhere?

Or am I supposed to get back to 32bit Avisynth and everything?



PS: the same with KenBurnsEffect, only 32bit library available as well...

Most known x64 plugs here on wiki:- http://avisynth.nl/index.php/AviSynth%2B_x64_plugins
Zoom (req for KenBurns thingy) is last in list.

There are a few more x64 archives just below zoom at end of page.

AVISynth 64-bit can't run 32-bit plugins? I never bothered to change to 64-bit (I hesitate to even call it an "upgrade") because I saw zero likelihood of any improvement. However, I'm not in any way berating the OP's decision to do so, and am only wondering if it is really true that when you go to the 64-bit version that you are totally cut off from using any 32-bit plugins.

I assume you can still use Groucho's AVISynth switcher to go back and forth (from 32- to 64-bit) if you can't get 32-bit plugins to work any other way.

My search returned nothing. Also, even with the wayback machine, no source to be found (even though the author made it available back in the day).

I was also looking for a 64-bit version of this plugin some months ago. The source code for the original SubtitleEX is missing, however, there is source code for the updated SubtitleEx: http://hosiken.jp/dev/win/subtitleex.html

I hope someone can compile a 64-bit version :)

**Edit**
The author of SubtitleEx (kai) also had similar issues with the source code:
"Based on "SubTitleEx" created by Basilik Tournadski, which was released on a currently closed site called "mVideo Utilities", Japanese characters are garbled. In addition, a function to set the presence / absence of line breaks and line spacing has been added.

The source code of "SubTitleEx" has been released in the past, but it is not available now, and for some reason it is not left in the Internet Archive. Therefore, we created a plug-in with the same function as SubTitleEx based on DVTimeStampEx, a plug-in created by the same author that had the source code left in the Internet Archive, which happened to have the SubTitleEx character display engine."

Presumably someone could, in theory, write some kind of inter-process-communicating gizmo that could feed clips between 64-bit and 32-bit instances of Avisynth? Doesn't something similar already exist for feeding 64-bit applications from 32-bit Avisynth?

32-bit and 64-bit DLLs are installed at the same time (32-bit in SysWow64, 64-bit in System32), there's no need for any switching. Load up the regular 32-bit VirtualDub.exe, it sees the 32-bit version. Load VirtualDub64.exe, it sees the 64-bit.

It's not just a limitation of 64-bit AviSynth+ that it can't load 32-bit stuff. (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winprog64/process-interoperability)

As Qyot27 said.
Is no prob to have side by side x86 / x64 Avs+, just call the required version of eg VDub2.
PS-Pad [EDIT: A text/script editor], is 32 bit, but can have set up to start 32 bit MPC-HC, or eg 64 bit PotPlayer, it only starts the process with supplied avs filename
and so works with either 32 or 64 bit players.

I had also found SubtitleEx mod with source yesterday but had to go out, I was gonna have a go at compile, but groucho beat me, thanx Grouchy.

Also, cant remember what its called, but I think you can run eg 32 bit script from x64 Avs+ using AvsPipeMod [or named something like that, I've never tried it].

I had also found SubtitleEx mod with source yesterday but had to go out, I was gonna have a go at compileThere was some inline ASM in the source which I had to modify for x64. This works fine if you have a Intel C/C++ compiler but MSVC does not support inline ASM in x64. So, without the Intel compiler one would have to re-write that code to plain C/C++ or Intrinsics.
StainlessS

Ok, glad I did not have to attempt it, thanx.
TWriteAVI v2.0 has some assembler which I cannot convert to ASM/Intrinsics, I bet you could though :) [EDIT: Not that much really, think is in about 3 places, one place only a half dozen instructions]

EDIT: Not sure, I think Dogway recently wanted WAV output from Avs [think wanted from avs+ x64, x64 ver$ of TWriteAVI/TWriteWAV would have been able to do this].
SoundOut can output audio from Avs, but WAV file not available till some time later, TWriteWAV can be set to return on completion, so WAV available and usable on function return.

EDIT: TWriteAVI v2.0, https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=172837&highlight=TWriteAVI

AVISynth plug-in SubTitleEx
====================================

Overview
----

AVISynth plug-in SubTitleEx Kai is a subtitle display plug-in for AVISynth 2.5.
There are many enhancements over the AVISynth standard SubTitle.

It was published on a currently closed site called "mVideo Utilities"
Based on "SubTitleEx" created by Basilik Tournadski, Japanese characters are garbled
It has been corrected. In addition, a function to set the presence / absence of line breaks and line spacing has been added.

"SubTitleEx" had source code released in the past, but it is not available now,
It happened that the source code was left in the Internet Archive.
Based on "DVTimeStampEx" that incorporates SubTitleEx's character display engine,
Created one with a function equivalent to "SubTitleEx".


How to use
------

SubtitleEx.dll is added to the "Plugin" folder of the folder where AviSynth is installed.
It can be used just by copying.

All functions of the original SubtitleEx are implemented, and if some "useless characters" are included
A garbled problem has been fixed. In addition, SubTitleEx breaks
Parameters have been added.

SubtitleEx(
string text,
int "x",
int "y",
int "firstframe",
int "lastframe",
string "font",
string "effects",
int "size",
int "textcolor",
int "halocolor"
int "linemargin"
int "spc"
)


Parameters of SubtitleEx

-text The text to display. If you want to start a new line, write "|" at that point.
-x The coordinates to display. If you specify minus, it will be from the right.
-y The coordinates to display. If you specify minus, it will be from the bottom.
-firstframe The number of the first frame to display.
-lastframe The number of the last frame to display.
-font Specify the font name.
-effects Specifies effects. If you specify more than one, write them together.
b: bold i: italic u: underline s: strikethrough
f (number of frames in, number of frames out): fade-in / out
m (start frame, start X, start Y, end frame, end X, end Y): motion
-size Font size.
-textcolor The text color. Alpha can also be specified.
-halocolor The color of the border. Alpha can also be specified.


Parameter added by SubtitleEx

-effects = "w" Line breaks with "|" are disabled.
-linemargin = number Specify the line spacing.
-spc = number Specify the character spacing.


Notes
--------


If you do not change the format to RGB32, etc., you may crash.
In this case, convert the format.

No feedback from the OP so I guess it's working?

Sorry for not responding, I am finally here.

I gave it a try now. I only see troubles with negative values of x or y (positions on screen). According to the documentation (http://www.avisynth.nl/index.php/SubtitleEx) they are supposed to align right, resp. to the bottom.

Try:
BlankClip().SubtitleEx("First line|Second line|Third line", x = -100, y = -100)

Half of the third line is under the bottom margin of the screen.

https://ctrlv.cz/shots/2020/02/13/rDP7.pngIndeed. The original SubtitleEx by Basilik did not have that issue. I think the problem is somewhere in this code segment:
if ( m_Info.pos_x < 0 )
{
m_Info.alignment = TA_BASELINE | TA_RIGHT;
m_Info.pos_x = vi.width + m_Info.pos_x;
}
else
{
m_Info.alignment = TA_BASELINE | TA_LEFT;
}

if ( m_Style.center )
{
m_Info.alignment = TA_BASELINE | TA_CENTER;
}

if ( m_Info.pos_y < 0 )
{
m_Info.pos_y = vi.height + m_Info.pos_y;
}Should be easy to fix. However, very little time right now...

By the way, is the performance penalty of using 32-bit Avisynth significant (compared to 64-bit)? Is there any at all?

JackBrody
17th February 2020, 22:43
I unpacked AVSMeter but before I fed it with my AVS script I tested it on both 64bit and 32bit VirtualDub. No problem with the former, but the latter definitely has issues. I got "Avisynth open failure: FFVideoSource: No suitable output format found" error on the line with 37-th FFmpegSource2() call.

So I am afraid I can't go back to 32bit with my projects. :-)
StainlessS
17th February 2020, 23:02
And the same if there is NO SubtitleEx() call ?
If so then problem in your FFMPegSource, probably not same version as your x64 FFMPegSource.

EDIT:

AvsMeter avsinfo
#AvsMeter64 avsinfo

Should show versions [EDIT: If they have a version resource, many versions of both LSmash and FfmpegSsource do not have version resource]

You dont need the .Lib files.
ffmsindex.exe only needed if you use it via command line.

I thought AvsMeter showed Operating System, I guess not.
What does Info show for faulting clip on x64 ?
Post to PostImage.org, dont need account. [Paste thumbnail for forum, or link for forum]

There is defo a later version ffms2 than 2016 [at least for W7].
I'm using this one on W7,x64, FFMS2_a26x64_2.23.1_MSVC_FFMPEG_4.2.2(l33tmeatwad).dll [just description, the file aint called that]
W7, x86, FFMS2_a26x86_2.23.1_MSVC_FFMPEG_4.2.2(l33tmeatwad).dll
And on XP,x64, ffms2_a26x64(XP)_2.23_clang.dll
XP x86, ffms2_C_x86_r1315_119_avs_vsp_LastXP.dll
[EDIT: Above dll is a C version, LoadCPlugin, will auto load in Avs+ OK]

Maybe the source filter just dont like you having loads of instances open, its kinda crazy too, you just need one instance of the clip opening your "video.mp4",
and after that either use Last or assign to some variable and use that,
eg

C=FFmpegSource2("video.mp4", atrack = -1)
AClip =C.trim(0,100) ++ C.trim(110,200) ++ C.Trim(500,700)


Also AlignedSplice is exactly the same as "++", and UnalignedSplice same as "+".

I would get a more recent version of ffms2 (both x86 and x64).

You might be running out of memory on 32 bit for the reasons Stainless stated. Run the script with AVSMeter64 to see how much memory it needs.
StainlessS
20th February 2020, 23:57
There is a known problem (with any source filter) when you hit some limit on file open count, it seems to be a system resource limit and may
be different for each source filter.
Here a thread on it:- https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1532807&highlight=file+open+resouce+limit#post1532807
x64 probably just has a higher limit and so you have escaped so far. Modify your method, ie dont open the same file gazillions of times.

[See IanB post] https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=162693&highlight=file+open+resouce+limit

There are probably many more threads mentioning the problem.

@hinsdale1,

Yes it is the number of Direct Show environments created by each DirectshowSource() that is killing you. Each one is sizeable.

The error message indicates severe lack of free memory in the process address space.

The call was for an 8Mb chunk, SetMemoryMax was 512Mb, but there was only 64Mb already allocated (probably as 8 of 8Mb buffers) in the frame cache so far. So the address space is pretty maxed out, 64MB is about 3% of the 2GB address space.

Options:-

If you environment supports it you could try the 3GB hack. This might give you upto 50% more address space.

Try SetMemoryMax(32), this will force very aggressive reuse of the existing buffers.

Assuming the shape and sizes are compatible, externally splice your individual .mkv sources into a single big mkv source so you only need a single Direct Show environment. You could then cut the single input clip back into component clips to maintain your work flow.

Try a different source filter technology, like ffmeg or DG, that may be less memory intensive.

Well, I have 16 GB of RAM, no problem with 4 GB used. But 32-bit aplications are only able to address 3,5 GB, right?

Groucho2004, how about add memory size to the output of AVSMeter? Might be relevant sometimes.
Groucho2004

32-bit aplications are only able to address 3,5 GB, right?On a 64 bit OS it's very close to 4GB. Nevertheless, you're really hitting that limit.

only able to address 3,5 GB, right?
32 bit, 2GB for User space, 2GB kernel [theoretical, even if only eg 512MB ram, Pagefile [EDIT: Virtual Memory] steps in].
If app has some flag set [Large Address Aware] then can have 3GB user space [1GB kernel].
Some systems cannot access about last 0.5 GB of RAM for some reason [hardware address mapping I think],
not sure if that affects all systems, perhaps G2K4 likes to chime in.

Here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/361726hfdjw4e8r/SubTitleEx.7z?dl=1) are the sources for 32 & 64 bit. Ignore the 64 bit source, you can't build it with VC. The only changes I made in the 32 bit source are the AVS+ headers including the usual changes (AVS_Linkage, ...). There's no wide character/Unicode stuff in there.

Edit - One more thing: I copied the PixelClip class definition from internal.h since it is not present in the AVS+ headers.

====================================
AVISynth plug-in SubTitleEx
====================================

Overview
----

AVISynth plug-in SubTitleEx Kai is a subtitle display plug-in for AVISynth 2.5.
There are many enhancements over the AVISynth standard SubTitle.

It was published on a currently closed site called "mVideo Utilities"
Based on "SubTitleEx" created by Basilik Tournadski, Japanese characters are garbled
It has been corrected. In addition, a function to set the presence / absence of line breaks and line spacing has been added.

"SubTitleEx" had source code released in the past, but it is not available now,
It happened that the source code was left in the Internet Archive.
Based on "DVTimeStampEx" that incorporates SubTitleEx's character display engine,
Created one with a function equivalent to "SubTitleEx".


How to use
------

SubtitleEx.dll is added to the "Plugin" folder of the folder where AviSynth is installed.
It can be used just by copying.

All functions of the original SubtitleEx are implemented, and if some "useless characters" are included
A garbled problem has been fixed. In addition, SubTitleEx breaks
Parameters have been added.

SubtitleEx(
clip c,
string text,
int "x",
int "y",
int "firstframe",
int "lastframe",
string "font",
string "effects",
int "size",
int "textcolor",
int "halocolor"
int "spc"
int "linemargin"
)


Parameters of SubtitleEx

-c Non optional clip.
-text The text to display (Default ""). If you want to start a new line, write "|" at that point.
-x The coordinates to display (Default c.Width * -0.11). If you specify minus, it will be from the right.
-y The coordinates to display (Default c.Height * -0.17). If you specify minus, it will be from the bottom.
-firstframe The number of the first frame to display (Default 0).
-lastframe The number of the last frame to display (Default, Last frame of clip c).
-font Specify the font name (Default "Arial").

-effects Specifies effects (Default "b"). If you specify more than one, write them together.
b: Bold i: Italic u: Underline o: strikeOut/strikethrough
f (number of frames in, number of frames out): fade-in / out
m (start frame, start X, start Y, end frame, end X, end Y): motion
w Line breaks with "|" are disabled. (Added by SubTitleEx Kai)
c: Center (not sure that it works properly)
n: No Anti Alias
e: Alpha Emboss
s: Alpha Blur
g: Alpha Gaussian Blur
l: Alpha Laplacian
-size Font size (Default 36).
-textcolor The text color (Default $FFFFFF). Alpha can also be specified.
-halocolor The color of the text halo (Default $000000). Alpha can also be specified.
-spc number Specify the character spacing. (Default 0, Added by SubTitleEx Kai)
-linemargin number Specify the line spacing. (Default 0, Added by SubTitleEx Kai)

NOTE, In original SubTitleEx Kai docs,
spc and linemargin order was transposed (ie wrong).
Effects "s" (Strikethrough) was wrong, should be "o" (strikeOut, as above).
Effects "cnesgl" were all missing from doc (well 's' did Alpha Blur rather than StrikeThrough).
EDIT: Above "nesgl" effects should perhaps be mutually exclusive.


Notes
--------


If you do not change the format to RGB32, etc., you may crash.
In this case, convert the format.

There is also difference between the two for Y=0 [original got it wrong maybe], try this with original and Kai dll's.
(Maybe Kai fix for Y=0, broke the bottom align thing)

(Should I add it to the source)
StainlessS

It looks like some of the Anti-alias code was taken from avisynth source, so I'll add GPL.

EDIT:
Original SubtitleEx contained same subtitle engine as DvTimeStamp, and Kai's version was also based on DvTimestamp.
Internal.h is defo Avisynth, and as DvTimeStamp source subs engine also uses Internal.h so both original SubtitleEx and Kai version must also both be GPL.

RD, I did not find that thread, expected name in thread title, and did not examine all Search For Posts threads.
Note, last frame in Kai does not display subs ("<" vs "<=" error).

I think I'm gonna try use avs v2.60 Std Subs Anit-alias substitution, maybe get 2.60 colorspaces available, dont know if I will be successful,
I feel there is just something wrong with the original code (both Basilik and Kai versions), both only use TA_BASELINE relative, not
TA_TOP or TA_BOTTOM relative, anyway gonna give it a try, and if not succeed then go back to original source again.

Horizontally or vertically?
Well you could try all 3 X, Y, and Z axis, and choose the one of most resistance.

Would anybody like to try a test version, not sure that it is all as it should be, in particular YV24 saturation (ie ApplyYV24)
Guinea pigs required.

From Antialiaser.cpp

// ssS: Added. Called only by Apply
void Antialiaser::ApplyYV24(BYTE* buf, int pitch, int textcolor, int halocolor, int pitchUV, BYTE* bufU, BYTE* bufV)
{
if (dirty)
GetAlphaRect();
int Ytext = ((textcolor >> 16) & 255), Utext = ((textcolor >> 8) & 255), Vtext = (textcolor & 255);
int Yhalo = ((halocolor >> 16) & 255), Uhalo = ((halocolor >> 8) & 255), Vhalo = (halocolor & 255);
int textTransparancy = (textcolor >> 24) & 255;
int haloTransparancy = (halocolor >> 24) & 255;
char* alpha = alpha_bits + validRectangle.top * w * 2;
// buf += pitch * ((h - 1) - validRectangle.bottom);
buf += pitch * validRectangle.top;
bufU += pitchUV * validRectangle.top;
bufV += pitchUV * validRectangle.top;
for (int y = validRectangle.bottom; y >= validRectangle.top; --y)
{
for (int x = validRectangle.left; x <= validRectangle.right; ++x)
{
char tr0, tr1;
tr0 = div255to64[textTransparancy][alpha[x * 2 + 0]];
// tr1 = div255to64[haloTransparancy][alpha[x * 2 + 1]];
tr1 = (alpha[x * 2 + 0] >= 64)?0:div255to64[haloTransparancy][alpha[x * 2 + 1]];

buf[x] = (buf[x] * (64 - tr0 - tr1) + Ytext * tr0 + Yhalo * tr1) >> 6;

bufU[x] = (bufU[x] * (64 - tr0 - tr1) + Utext * tr0 + Uhalo * tr1) >> 6;
bufV[x] = (bufV[x] * (64 - tr0 - tr1) + Vtext * tr0 + Vhalo * tr1) >> 6;

// ssS: Alternative test
// bufU[x] = (bufU[x] * (128 - tr0 - tr1) + Utext * tr0 + Uhalo * tr1) >> 7;
// bufV[x] = (bufV[x] * (128 - tr0 - tr1) + Vtext * tr0 + Vhalo * tr1) >> 7;

// ssS: Alternative test
// bufU[x] = (bufU[x] * (128 - tr0*2 - tr1*2) + Utext * tr0*2 + Uhalo * tr1*2) >> 7;
// bufV[x] = (bufV[x] * (128 - tr0*2 - tr1*2) + Vtext * tr0*2 + Vhalo * tr1*2) >> 7;

}
buf += pitch;
bufU += pitchUV;
bufV += pitchUV;
alpha += w * 2;
}
}



v1.50Beta mod StainlessS.

Given version number of v1.50Beta
Made output same as original SubtitleEx for y=0 and Y=-1. (Y=0, Baseline of first line of text is at YCoord 0, Y=-1, BaseLine of Last line of text is at YCoord Height-1).
Where "|" inserts a NewLine in text, "||" will now print a single Pipe "|" character, without NewLine.
Add support for all v2.60 Std Colorspaces except YV411.


Decided to go with plan D, ie revert back to original KAI with mods.

It only became obvious what original SubtitleEx intended when rendering multiline where Y=0, and Y=-1 were viewed simultaneously, have implemented as original.

OK, I think that maybe I did YV24 correct after all, If no bug reports prior to about Saturday, I'll release v1.50 without beta,
perhaps G2K4 finds it within his good self to add an x64 dll.

I was absolutely knackered when I was doing this plug, up until yesterday I had hardly slept a single wink for about 10 days,
for about 3 or 4 days I was shagged out, but after that it sort of became the norm and did not feel so much tired.
One day last week I had 5 pints of ale, no effect at all, not a wink slept, but last night about 10 pints did the trick, finally got some sleep. https://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/muede/a015.gif

I finally had some time to build a 64 bit version with your modifications. All good except that the top y coords are now shifted, see here:

Script:

converttorgb32()
SubTitleEx(x=0, y=0, font="Arial", size=50, "First line (x=0, y=0)")

// ssS:

That asm part can safely be replaced by
const BYTE* src2 = src - 8 * srcpitch - 1;
unsigned int tmp = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 24; i++) {
tmp |= *(unsigned int*)(src2);
src2 += srcpitch;
}
tmp &= 0x00ffffff;

Checked, compiler generates the same or better asm code for that part. No need for special 64 bit tmp, 32 bit is enough.

I'm happy to leave as the author intended.OK, fair enough.

I forgot to mention, the x86 / x64 distinction in the version resource does not work. It always shows 'x86'. I had a quick look but could not find any error in the conditional logic in version.h. And yes, I did define "WIN32" and "_WIN64".

Edit - With a temporary workaround the version in the x64 DLL is now OK. Here (http://www.mediafire.com/file/eogfo29xl3txvfv/SubTitleEx_x64.7z/file) is the plugin.

Thanks g, [no you cant have big G, thats Gavino's moniker].

I would have preferred if implemented with say optonal keypad base align arg, and forget x=-1 type stuff, maybe separate eg Vcent arg (for real centering, rather than print downwards from center), and where
Align defined then x and y relative to alignment, else relative 0,0. [EDIT: And maybe separate args for justification, eg right aligned, left justified. I think RT_subtitle can do that but forgot how]

The the command line for resource compiler whatsit on VS2008,

/d "_WIN64" /d "_UNICODE" /d "UNICODE" /fo"x64\Debug/DDigitTest.res"

Hi StainlessS,

I think I found a bug when anti-aliasing is disabled and the colorspace is YUV. The problem can be most easily seen when the input is YV16 but is is also noticeable with YV24 and YV12. With YV12 is seems the halo color disappears.

Crap, I hated trying to fix that one.
If it aint been fixed after some reasonable amount of time, bug me again.

EDIT: I dont think I touched anything like that, maybe bug in original too.
Maybe can you check in original 32 bit, or maybe bug even in AVS itself [or windows],
think maybe it uses AVS for text rendering incl anti-alias, I only touched print coords and the like,
would not have ani idea about text rendering itself.

RD, is the disappearing halo only because its on colorbars.
Seem to be halo on blankclip so maybe just interference due to subsampling and colorbars colors.

EDIT: Previous script, changed to colorbars. Top RGB32 Bot YV16

Halo seems to be sorta transparent, presume that its not supposed to be.

Swapped Top YV16, Bot RGB32

The original SubtitleEx by Basilik seems to be fine. I could only test in YV12 and YUY2. Although in RGB the results are different, in the case of anti-aliasing I would think the output of the original is more correct.

ConvertToYUY2()
o = SubtitleEx_o86_SubtitleEx("TEST", x=240, y=240, effects="n", size=72, textcolor=$00FF0199, halocolor=$0047982F)
n = SubtitleEx_x86_SubtitleEx("TEST", x=240, y=240, effects="n", size=72, textcolor=$00FF0199, halocolor=$0047982F)

Interleave(o,n)

Thank you StainlessS. I was trying to make a script to allow overlaying the subtitles onto HBD colorspaces without having to convert the video to 8-bit but could not get the same output as using SubtitleEX by itself. I will wait :)
