AviSynth+ 3.5: Linux, macOS, and BSD support

[qyot27]

AviSynth+ version 3.5 marks the first release with native support for non-Windows OSes.

For the past few weeks, this has been getting tested and polished over at the Github repo. There's a few lingering issues that will have to wait for 3.5.1, but the important part is that the AviSynth+ core can now be built and used natively on Linux, macOS, and BSD. As of right now, the only source filter that can be used is FFMS2's C++ plugin.

Tested platforms:
Ubuntu 19.10
macOS 15.3 High Sierra and 15.4 Mojave
FreeBSD 12.1

There is no currently no automatic detection of autoloaded plugins. You'll need to use AddAutoloadDir (on macOS and BSD, AddAutoloadDir currently throws an exception, but LoadPlugin works correctly).

More detailed build instructions can be found in the AviSynth+ documentation (https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/blob/master/distrib/docs/english/source/avisynthdoc/contributing/posix.rst).

Nice! This is a major milestone!

[StainlessS]

A big day indeed, thanks very much to all concerned.

[FranceBB]

What an achievement!
For years and years Avisynth has been a Windows only frameserver and people on Linux had to rely on either using AVXSynth (which never got as many things as Avisynth+) or running AVS with wine and just hope. Today is definitely a truly remarkable day which extends the platforms supported and hopefully the Avisynth userbase along with the Doom9 one.

Well done indeed, guys!

[StainlessS]

I'm gettin' this on build attempt Cinnamon Mint 19.3 Tricia x64.

Is it related to this
There is no currently no automatic detection of autoloaded plugins. You'll need to use AddAutoloadDir (on macOS and BSD, AddAutoloadDir currently throws an exception, but LoadPlugin works correctly).

[qyot27]

The CC/CXX/LD overrides likely need to use 'gcc-9/g++-9' so it sees the correct version of GCC (assuming that you've installed the gcc-9 package). 19.04 and distros based on it are the earliest that can build AviSynth+ with the version of GCC provided in the main repositories, because support for C++17 (to be able to use the filesystem library) was only added in GCC 8.

That warning/error message in sudo apt-get update was from the Google Earth repository, so no, nothing to do with this.

[StainlessS]

OK, I've re-installed compiler again,

The CC/CXX/LD overrides likely need to use 'gcc-9/g++-9' so it sees the correct version of GCC
What does that mean, I am real new to linux, and never used command line compiler since the 90's.

EDIT: executing

CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++-9 LD=gcc-9

and then

printenv

shows nothing for eg CC, dont know if it should.

EDIT:
I am real new to linux
Well, Pinterf pretty much spoke for me also
[mc pretty much always been the 1st prog I install on linux, since the 90's when I first used RedHat 6.0, I think. (Cinnamon Mint is the first version Linux that has not left me feeling disappointed, though it could still be improved)],
At least for someone (me) who is using linux in every five years for only a day or two. All I can say that Midnight Commander rulez :)

[qyot27]

It looks as if that PPA has gcc-9 and g++-9 as separate packages.
sudo apt-get install g++-9
will probably make it work.

If you are getting that missing <filesystem> error you are still at gcc version less than 8

[StainlessS]

Well no idea what to do about that. :)
The GNU 7.4 and 9.0 stuff had me confused from the start.
I have to leave home soon, I will probably be on-line, but mobile.

[DJATOM]

Probably CMakeCache related stuff, so delete all contents from build folder and configure again.

[DJATOM]

Tried with my server, looks like my method works (I'm just lazy to search for gcc-9 mirrors for debian buster or build gcc locally, so used gcc-8 on my end)

Many thanks to those involved in making this happen! AviSynth+ installed first time on pop!_os 19.10 (based on Ubuntu 19.10.)

I have uncommented all, then did a sudo apt-get update

[Richard1485]

Thanks. I did the same, and build-dep ffmpeg, nasm, and libsdl2-dev installed fine; but my curiousity as to which repo is envisaged by the instructions remains. (I've only ever edited sources.list to add repos -- never used a graphical interface.)

EDIT: executing

printenv

These variable definitions may only affect the current statement. For them to be persistent, you need to use export (assuming your shell is bash):

CMake can't reconfigure compilers after you've already configured it for a different set.

Looks like I need to make the instructions a little more explicit. I'd been in a bit of a rush when I wrote that up and neglected to actually put down the build instructions for AviSynth+ on Ubuntu.

[StainlessS]

little more explicit.

Yep, good idea for us tards :)

[Richard1485]

I'd been in a bit of a rush when I wrote that up and neglected to actually put down the build instructions for AviSynth+ on Ubuntu.

In that case, I must have run the instructions for macOS. I thought that there was a gap in the guide but interpreted it to mean that after the prerequisites had been satisfied, the build instructions were the same for macOS and Ubuntu.

[qyot27]

Well, truth be told, I prefer Ninja anyway, so even on Ubuntu I still use it (on macOS it's a little more important to use Ninja because of weirdness concerning the Apple binutils and linking to libstc++). The major difference is that on 19.10, there's no need to override CC/CXX/LD because you're already using GCC 9.

For 19.04 and 19.10:
git clone git://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus.git
cd AviSynthPlus
mkdir avisynth-build
cd avisynth-build

cmake ../ -G Ninja -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fpermissive"
ninja
sudo checkinstall --pkgname=avisynth --pkgversion="$(grep -r \
Version avs_core/avisynth.pc | cut -f2 -d " ")-$(date --rfc-3339=date | \
sed 's/-//g')-git" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --delspec=yes --deldesc=yes \
--strip=yes --fstrans=no --default ninja install

Or if you'd rather use regular old GNU make:

git clone git://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus.git
cd AviSynthPlus
mkdir avisynth-build
cd avisynth-build

cmake ../ -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fpermissive"
make -j$(nproc)
sudo checkinstall --pkgname=avisynth --pkgversion="$(grep -r \
Version avs_core/avisynth.pc | cut -f2 -d " ")-$(date --rfc-3339=date | \
sed 's/-//g')-git" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --delspec=yes --deldesc=yes \
--strip=yes --fstrans=no --default

For 18.04, after adding the PPA mentioned and installing the gcc-9 and g++-9 packages, the only difference for both of the above examples would be tacking CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++-9 LD=gcc-9 onto the front of the cmake command, just like on Mac.

[Richard1485]

If I used the macOS instructions as opposed to the Ubuntu ones just posted, do I have to uninstall and reinstall with the latter?

[qyot27]

Not really, the only substantive difference is checkinstall, which doesn't affect the actual running of anything (it just supervises the install process, makes a deb package and actually registers it in dpkg/apt so it can be handled with the package management system). If you didn't use checkinstall, you probably do need to run sudo ldconfig after sudo make install, though.

Yeah, I didn't use checkinstall. I ran sudo ninja install in accordance with the macOS instructions, so I'll just run sudo ldconfig.

[pinterf]

I can only encourage all not-so-commandline hero Windows guys to plunge into this another world. StainlessS, it's not magic (haha, yes, it is)

I apologize from those who are using linux regularly but the first steps are always hard for a beginner, even if I have already used it many years ago for some days. When you say that one should simply "configure again", everybody understands except poor us, without a context this simple sentence means nothing for us. One simple additional sentence or hint can spare us hours :)

My learning curve in brief.

I'm on Windows 10. Downloaded and installed the 18.04 WSL Ubuntu app (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WSL) (!), upgraded to 19.10 (https://www.how2shout.com/how-to/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-18-04-to-19-10-on-windows-10-linux-subsystem.html).

Fortunately I had zero problems with GCC, I got version 9 ready.

Since I put a non-final test username at the installation time I then spent some hours with altering the default user who logins when I start the Ubuntu app. (Yes, Windows registry). I even learned the su command.

Then I got Midnight Commander, learned about nano (a text editor here, read about it on SO), configured git, and with qyot27's help I was able to build ffmpeg and avisynth+. Some problematic steps in the learning curve were the rights, such as using MC CTRL-X C for setting execute rights on files, keyboard commands of nano, that the letter M means ALT key in nano's help, frequently using that sudo thing for getting elevated rights. And there was a familiar thing: using the TAB key(s) I could easily auto-complete the commands or file and directory names. And finally: the file system is nicely mapped and accessible from Windows under \\wsl$\Ubuntu-18.04\ folder.

It's so simple, you are using Windows _and_ can have a couple of Ubuntu terminal windows.

One with avisynth build directory, another one with test avs scripts and ffmpeg, a third one with nano, a fourth console with mc to copy this and that.

[pinterf]

And a question: I have an AVX2 capable processor but the Info() filter tells me that Avisynth+ is seeing only up to AVX. However when I cat the processor features in the console I can see there AVX2.
I wonder if AVX2 detection fails only for me (because of WSL) or it has a generic problem.

[Richard1485]

So, for installing ffmpeg on Ubuntu, the instructions say to leave out the --prefix option and add a checkinstall command. If I've understood correctly, this should be right:


./configure --enable-gpl --enable-version3 \
--disable-doc --disable-debug --enable-pic --enable-avisynth && \
make -j$(nproc) && \
sudo checkinstall --pkgname=ffmpeg --pkgversion="7:$(git rev-list \
--count HEAD)-g$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" --backup=no --deldoc=yes \
--delspec=yes --deldesc=yes --strip=yes --stripso=yes --addso=yes \
--fstrans=no --default

Yes, if you want that FFmpeg installed to the system. I set the instructions up to have FFmpeg installed to $HOME (which can be installed with just make install because you own that directory and don't want to be using sudo there) because I didn't want to get into the weeds of all the other things distros compile into FFmpeg (if you want libxvid, libx264, libx265, libdav1d, libaom, libopus, mbedtls, etc.). I kept it down to strictly what it takes for an AviSynth-supporting build, so that if you'd rather have a more fully-featured FFmpeg on the system, they won't conflict with each other.

If you're adventurous/patient enough to go through and make sure the builds are equivalent (or you don't care about any of those other external libraries), then installing to the system should be fine. sudo apt-get build-dep ffmpeg would have gotten you most of the way there, dependency-wise, so you could then use ffmpeg -buildconf and copy the configuration options over to the avsplus_linux patched version.

Ubuntu (well, Debian) configures its FFmpeg package with --enable-avisynth, so once the situation about switching away from AvxSynth gets resolved, there will be a point where we don't have to cover FFmpeg in the Ubuntu section of the docs. It'll just work once you install AviSynth+.

[Richard1485]

That all makes sense. I noticed in the past that after building ffmpeg, there can be issues with other programs that expect to see certain versions of libraries. For now, I'll stick to installing to $HOME. Unfortunately, an error appears during make. This is where the error occurs:

Those relate to trying to enable CUDA, which is autodetected apparently. I don't personally have an Nvidia card new enough to support CUDA, so I guess it skips it here. You may want to either --disable-cuvid (hopefully that's the right one; there's like three of them) or if more things in the hwaccels have problems, even go nuclear and use --disable-hwaccels.

[Richard1485]

You may want to either --disable-cuvid (hopefully that's the right one; there's like three of them) or if more things in the hwaccels have problems, even go nuclear and use --disable-hwaccels.

Unfortunately, even if I add both options to configure, I still see the error message,


./configure --prefix=$HOME/ffavx_build --enable-gpl --enable-version3 \
--disable-doc --disable-debug --enable-pic --enable-avisynth --disable-cuvid --disable-hwaccels


My card is pretty old now: ~8 years. It was as useful on Windows as it's been annoying on Linux. :D

EDIT: This seems to work.


./configure --prefix=$HOME/ffavx_build --enable-gpl --enable-version3 \

I asked on ffmpeg-devel what the preference would be for dropping AvxSynth and switching to AviSynth+, vis-a-vis a deprecation message first and then the switch happening later, or just doing a hard switch because AvxSynth is more or less equivalent to AviSynth 2.5 and FFmpeg hasn't supported 2.5 on Windows for nearly 5 years.

I haven't gotten a response yet. If it goes much longer (a day or two or early next week), I'll not even bother with the deprecation patch and just send the switchover patchset.

For FFMS2, the change to the actual code is just a small if/else in src/avisynth/avssources.h, but there's something about the flags used by the autotools build system used upstream that's making the built library unusable by AviSynth+. I haven't done a deep dive to try and figure out what it is, though.

mmm

BlankClip(color=$000000)

EDIT: ColorbarsHS() works

[image]
The checkerboard output is what happens whenever mpv gets something with an alpha channel. It doesn't have anything to do specifically with AviSynth+.

If you use pixel_type="YUV444P" (or other format) to change the pix_fmt that Colorbars or BlankClip is outputting, it'll show up (conversely, using it in ColorbarsHD to have it output with an alpha channel will do the opposite). Same with using a ConvertTo function afterward that makes it drop the alpha channel.

Version() outputs bgr24, so no alpha channel there.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/avisynthplus-git/

done in [AUR]

Note: lots of AVS+ stuff is installed into vapoursynth directories.

[sl1pkn07]

ooopppssss (done, just reinstall)

[pinterf]

Just for reference, managed to use avisynth with the CPP interface under Ubuntu
https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/issues/130#issuecomment-595892327
I don't know if it is an achievement or not but I was quite happy :)

[MeteorRain]

I'm implementing AVS input for x265 and I'm seeing SIGSEGV on _Thrd_yield () from /c/Windows/SYSTEM32/MSVCP140.dll.

[redacted]

Finally figured out. If I recompile avisynth-plus under mingw64, the result DLL works with a mingw64 compiled program.

x265 compiled with mingw64 doesn't work with the DLL (probably msvc) shipped from official.

Guess I would have to use the C interface instead.

Yep, c++ ABIs are different.

[stax76]

So x264 does really use the C interface? If there is actually an application that is using the C interface than it might not be impossible to use it directly from managed code too, without a wrapper, that's interesting, I wish I knew this before I had built my wrapper, was a good learning experience though.

[Groucho2004]

So x264 does really use the C interface?As do Megui (via dimzon's wrapper) and some pipe tools (avs4x26x, avs2yuv).
