Hybrid: Input -> x264/x265/Xvid/VP8/VP9

[Gravitator]

Re-saving helped!

VPX
VP8->apply 'Conf:vp8 Hybrid Default' - the encoder was changed to VP9.

[Selur]

the encoder was changed to VP9.

Yes, it's the default in current versions.
Hybrid from time to time changes the Hybrid-defaults, but it does not change the program-defaults saved by the user.

Enc mode:ABR > minimize command line: off > start encoding - crash.

Input: *.yuv > Error (sorry, only supporting, YUV4MPEG2 raw atm.) > OK > the GUI freezes.

[Selur]

regarding x265: command line is complaing about 'no-script-cbr' being an unkown option.
Funny thing is that the command line help:

--[no-]strict-cbr Enable stricter conditions and tolerance for bitrate deviations in CBR mode. Default disabled

and the latest documentation https://x265.readthedocs.io/en/lates...ion-strict-cbr mentions it.
-> created a bug report over at https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/...-no-strict-cbr

Input: *.yuv > Error (sorry, only supporting, YUV4MPEG2 raw atm.) > OK > the GUI freezes.

I can reproduce the issue, I will look into it.

Cu Selur

Ps.: will send you a fix regarding the yuv-opening freeze. Will wait for feedback from the x265 devs regarding '--no-strict-cbr'.

Ps.: Note that Hybrid switched to Vapoursynth API4 so Vapoursynth, filters and tools usind Vapoursynth need to be updated. Also deinstall old Hybrid before installing this release.

Avisynth preview: Info - does not work.

[Selur]

Will look at it during the week. (Since I'm not really using Avisynth much nowadys I hadn't noticed.)
Looks like it never worked with LWLibavVideoSource, but only with FFMpegSource2 and I deleted the FFMS2.avsi (thought it wasn't needed) which contains FFInfo.
So if you extract FFMS2.avsi (https://github.com/FFMS/ffms2/releases) into your avisynthPlugins folders at least when using FFMpegSource2 it should work.
-> it's a bug in avsViewer -> send you a link to fixed avsViewer builds via PM.

@Gravitator: Seems like this is related to Avisnyth++ itself. If you disable multithreading through enabling 'Filtering->Avisynth->Misc->Script->Miscellaneous->Disable MT' frame detection works fine, but it will slow down all other filters.

This helped with the correct display of information about I/P/B frames

Foudn another way to fix this without having to disable MT, send you a link to modified avsViewer builds.

1. Replacement C:\Program Files\Hybrid\32bit\avsViewer.exe leads to activation of Info for LibavVideoSource.
2. Adding files avsViewer.exe and FFMS2.avsi in C:\Program Files\Hybrid\32bit\avisynthPlugins leads to activation of Info for FFmpegSource.

The new fix does not work without disabling MT. How to switch to 64bit mode?

[Selur]

a. avsViewer should be in 32bit folder not in 32bit/avisynthPlugins folder.
b. for me this happens:
when I use Avisynth 32bit and load a source where LWLibavVideoSource is used triggering the Info-button properly adds Info() to the preview script.
when I use Avisynth 32bit and load a source where FFVideoSourceis used triggering the Info-button properly adds FFInfo() to the preview script, but at the wrong position. (not above Prefetch)
when I use Avisynth 64bit and load a source where LWLibavVideoSource is used triggering the Info-button properly adds Info() to the preview script.
when I use Avisynth 32bit and load a source where FFVideoSourceis used triggering the Info-button properly adds FFInfo() properly before Prefetch().
-> will look into it.

How to switch to 64bit mode?

I dont know what FFSAR_NUM means

-> not chaning since it would require a rewrite of FFMS2.avsi

Changing the encoding mode (ABR, 2-pass, b-frames) at a bitrate of 1000kbps results in the message "Current settings would result in a file size below 1 MB. -> changing Filesize to 1MB".

Can't reproduce, only should happen if the warning is correct.

about DGDecNV: Try starting DGIndexNV.exe, it should recreate the file. Alternatively you can create empty DGDecNV.ini files.
about Info: probably forgot to update avsViewer

-> seems like I should think about dropping 32bit Avisynth from Hybrid

This behaviour is correct.
Hybrid does not support encoding to file sizes below 1 MB through bit rate based methods.

Should be changed to DGIndexNV.ini
> C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\Avisynth\avisynthPlugins\DGIndexNV.exe
> C:\Program Files\Hybrid\32bit\avisynthPlugins\DGIndexNV.exe

No clue what you intended to say wih that.

Yes, but I see no script change in Hybrid that could prevent it aside from dropping multithreading which is not happing.
It's this way for years.

Why is it triggered on b-frames? How to disable it?

An empty file helped.
