QTGMC Deinterlacing Script (v3.384)

Wrong: This is the "MaskTools2" plugin in the QTGMC Core Plugins set.

And, well, yes – having all recent Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime packs installed (about from 2010 on) is always recommendable, you never know which application or plugin was built with which compiler version ... you can use wsusoffline.net to collect their installers.

I have everything working with 32-bit VDub. I wanted to try 64-bit. I uninstalled Avisynth and deleted registry entries. I used Universal Installer to install Avisynth+ 64-bit. I set AVS_SRC_DIR=C:\AvisynthRepository and set PLUGDIR64PLUS=C:\AvisynthRepository\AVSPLUS_x64\plugins. Copied all the 64 bit plugins and scripts to the plugin folder.

I'm using VirtualDub-1.10.4-AMD64 and can't get it to work. When I try to open my avs script with VDub, it gives an error:

Avi import filter error: (unknown) (80040154)

This is my script:

Avisource("F:\Capture\1.avi")
QTGMC()

It works just fine with 32 bit VDub. Any help getting it to work would be appreciated.

If you use AviSource in a 64-bit AviSynth process, then you may need to have a 64-bit VfW codec for the video format in your AVI installed.

Which format is in your "1.avi"? If it is compressed, try to use FFMS2 or L-SMASH Works (LwLibavVideoSource) instead of AviSource.

The video is compressed using Lagarith. The installer for Lagarith installs both 32 and 64 bit. If I open the avi directly in VDub 64-bit, it opens fine.

You might want to give this a go.

Same result with that. It will open the avi directly, but won't open the script.

How big is the file? Can you upload it somewhere (or a small chunk)? Otherwise, try Ligh's suggestion (FFMS2 / L-SMASH).

They are alternative source filters. Download and docs here:

Can you upload it somewhere (or a small chunk)?

In VirtualDubFilterMod (Linked by the Grouchy one),

Load AVI, move to start of a sequence with motion. ensure that it is a KEY frame (shows K at bottom of GUI eg Frame 35 (0:00.01.400)[K] ), and press HOME key.
Then move to end of sequence (about 10 secs later) at any frame following immediately after a K frame, and press END key.
Then on Menu/Video/ tick "Direct Stream Copy" and save the marked sequence.

@Micheal813
Another thing you could try is running the script through AVSMeter (link in my signature). It might reveal the problem.

Ok. Thanks to Groucho2004's AVS Meter, I figured out that I needed to install the 64-bit Visual Studio 2013 runtime. I only had the 32 bit installed. Stupid mistake. Is there an all in 1 package for the VS runtimes?

Thanks for all the help.

[LigH]

As already suggested many, many times before:

You can use http://wsusoffline.net to download a collection of installers (you may disable all Windows Update versions, only enable MS Visual Studio runtimes).

You are right. I overlooked it and I'm sorry. Thanks again for all the help everybody.

mvtools2 says search = 3 is exhaustive. QTGMC uses 5 at placebo which is uneven multi-hex. Any idea why exhaustive is faster than UMH?

I get:
qtgmc(preset="slower",search=3) = 1.70fps
qtgmc(preset="slower",search=5) = 1.53fps

search=4 is 1.84fps

Can someone please clarify - is L-SMASH Works being maintained by VFR_maniac at https://github.com/VFR-maniac/L-SMASH-Works ?

It won't build any more without patches (an incompatibility with ffmpeg)
https://github.com/VFR-maniac/L-SMASH-Works/pull/75

[LigH]

Forum thread and AviSynth Wiki page for L-SMASH Works; I am not completely up-to-date, but I believe VFR-maniac is not anymore the most active developer of this project, and the_weirdo was the last creator of a release version.

Does the height of yuy2 need to be a multiple of 4? I'm getting a funky result when it isn't (bottom half green) which I only figured out after converting to yv12 and getting an error about it not being a multiple of 4. And there's still a line in the middle of some scenes.

it don't need I think, it has no vertical subsampling, even odd number should be fine (but it's interlaced so it should be mod2), if only mod4 height work then maybe it's some asm bug in some plugin
