StaxRip

I bet obviously not.

Feed the following avisynth script matched to your requirements (don't know if .avs import works again)

source=last
faultframeno=<your faulty frameno here>
repair=source.<your repairalgo here>
Trim(source,0,faultframeno-1)++Trim(repair,faultframeno,faultframeno)++Trim(source,faultframeno+1,0)

Which means you have to re-encode the whole video. It is not just replacing a frame.

Haven't asked for a while, Can stax do auto HDR to SDR tone mapping automatically without user interaction yet.

I mean Stax will detect and use best settings based on Source?

if so, what would the sequence be inside the stax gui (where would it sit, at the end, middle, just after the source)

Thanks

I've having no luck searching for this answer and feel like I'm blind. Are there simple variable and constant bitrate settings in Staxrip? Where can I control these settings? in x264 options there are 3 rate controls. Are these the setting I need to learn? I'm used to just selecting VBR or CBR in handbrake or adding a -q:v flag in ffmpeg.

Are you asking about these values for hardware (GPU) encoding? Or are you looking at software encoders, x264 and s265? That makes a difference in how you adjust the encoder and what quality you expect to get. It could also be the type of job you are trying to accomplish. If this is just final archiving of material and detail encoding isn't the goal, then hardware encoders are the way to go.

If you are looking for speed, GPU encoders are generally better. If you are interested in getting more control on how the encoder does its job, the software encoders are the way to go. I personally think software encoders, while they may take more time, are a much better choice.

Hi

I see a lot of choices of filters in StaxRip but it's very complicated to find comparison online about each filters and their pros/cons, especially on anime
For anime (1080p) what are the best filters to use for each of these categories?
- Upscaler
- Sharpen
- Anti-Aliasing
- Denoise
- Degrain
- Deblock
- Dehalo
- Dering

I know, some will say "it depends on the anime" but by "best" I mean the filters the brings a mix of "good enough (visible improvement vs the source file) + not too slow + versatile (fit for most anime)

Also, do the order of filters matter?

Thanks in advance

I'm assuming I'm using software encoding. I'm selecting x264 from the encoding profiles. I'm not selecting NVEenC or any other hardware profile. Am I able to control if I'm using VBR or CBR? I actually just want to know what the x264 profile uses. I'm used to having a more direct option in Adobe Media Encoder or Handbrake to select CBR or VBR. I'm assuming these setting are different in Staxrip. I've gone through the settings and I'm confused on what settings control these options.

What would be the best "source" choice between FFVideoSource (default) FFM2, LWLibAvVideoSource and L-Smash? I don't understand the pros and cons in term of quality, speed, features, compression etc. for encoding .mkv of anime (from Bluray remux)

Also, is it possible (if yes, how?) to add DGDecodeNV as source filter in Staxrip?

Thanks for the help
