Solution to... what? It works pretty nicely, the V2 just doesn't work well at 4k but V1 is fine.

When your terminal pops up during the model generation does it say it's looking in that path? To me that sounds like your RIFE install is just referencing a different folder. I'm on RIFE V1, maybe V2 has a different path?

Normal SVP is easy to run on any modern CPU anyway. RIFE looks the best IMO, I would recommend that if you've got a high end NVIDIA GPU to match your X3D.

Anime works so well because of the simple lines and lack of motion blur. I don't think anything really exists for film/generic content that produces results as good as Anime4K does for Anime (in real time). You could try NVIDIA's new Video Super Resolution. It's only compatible with MPC right now though as far as I know, and the quality is pretty similar to MadVR with artifact removal, debanding, denoising, etc enabled. https://github.com/emoose/VideoRenderer … ag/rtx-1.1

Oh yeah. That works pretty damn well and seems to have not much of a performance impact, at least for soft-but-still-HD modern anime. I thought it was going to be harder to install.

That could be the problem, although DDR5 kind of has 2 channels built in so it was a much bigger deal with DDR4.

I haven't really tried it but this is how you would set a custom resolution to downscale to:

Open the advanced settings, where it says -12800720 put -25601440 or whatever. Personally that seems silly to me though and I'd rather do x2 at 4K than x3 at 1440p, especially if your screen is 60hz.

Unless it's a 4080/4090, 4K48 is about the best you can expect to get. With my 3090 I can do 4KHDR/24 x2 but not x3.

If you are living life to the fullest and DO have a 4090 in your HTPC, then maybe it is underperforming. Make sure you're not using up all your GPU power on MadVR or other expensive upscaling, try setting your media player to "maximum performance" power mode in Nvidia Control Panel, and possibly try MPV if you're currently using MPC. Those seem to be the general tips from the 31 page long RIFE thread.

As an aside, I just realized that this is because of SVP's black bar detection. If you disable black bar detection, the number of possible resolutions you need to pre-cache the RIFE info for will decrease... but apparently the reason that exists in the first place is because SVP thinks the bars are part of the video to interpolate if they're NOT removed, so it sounds like you'd be giving up some quality there if you choose to leave it off.

Also, it seems like by default SVP decreases videos to your screen resolution before interpolating. Makes sense, and doesn't matter if you're on a 4K screen (unless you're doing 8K videos I guess), but it means that anyone with a 1440P screen trying to test 4K interpolation speed isn't REALLY testing 4K interpolation speed unless they turn that setting off:

You can see in our screenshots that SOMETHING is wrong. It looks a lot more jagged and low res with V2 enabled. It is entirely possible it's only at 4K though. I didn't notice a problem at 1080P, though there is less detail there to begin with so who knows. At this point I'm just going to stick with V1 personally, until the cause is revealed or it is fixed.

The annoying thing about the performance boost for me has been movies that use multiple aspect ratios / resolutions. For example I'm watching Resident Evil (2002) BluRay right now and there's a 16:9 camera, an almost 16:9 camera, a 21:9 camera, 4:3 CGI for the computer vision/security camera stuff, etc. It has stopped to generate the training info a few times. For anime/web content it's not so bad - you've basically just got 21:9 and 16:9 versions of 480P through 4K and then the occasional portrait/4:3 video.

I wonder if we can create a repository for the training info per GPU. It seems anyone interested in this sort of thing, at least for now, is going to gravitate around the last couple generations of high end NVIDIA cards. In this thread for example, every other person is on a 3090 or 4090.

@BlackFyre I think I see what you're talking about with the quality reduction. I also tried Avatar Way of Water (like a 34GB 4K file) and it looked kind of lower res than it should. I'll have to test back and forth.

To anyone confused, these are the full instructions to get the best setup going right now as far as I am aware. Please correct me if I'm wrong. With all due respect to Chainik, I think they're too smart and could benefit from giving a little more detail in the instructions for us non-developers.

1. Install SVP - select whatever player you want, I'm using MPV because back in the previous pages people claimed it was faster than MPC-HC/BE.
2. Go to Utilities -> Additional Programs and Features
3. Install the RIFE AI thing and the Tensor RT thing at the bottom. I also chose MPV Shared Libraries, not sure if it matters.
4. Restart the program.
5. Download the V2 model folder from here. https://github.com/AmusementClub/vs-mlr … e_v2_v1.7z SEE FOOTNOTE - MAYBE STOP HERE FOR NOW
6. Extract the "rife_V2" folder into your models folder (SVP 4\rife\models) so it sits beside the "rife" folder.
7. You should have a path like "C:\Program Files (x86)\SVP 4\rife\models\rife_v2\rife_v4.6.onnx" when this is done.
8. Download the updated vsmlsrt.py from here: https://www.svp-team.com/forum/misc.php … download=1
9. Replace "SVP 4\rife\vsmlrt.py"
10. Restart SVP 4.
11. Now you can select your settings as before. This seems optimal for me:

12. The thing here that confused me is that you don't have to select the V2 model specifically. It seems like SVP chooses the V2 model automatically if the folder structure exists like that. So you'll be using the non-ensemble V2 rife 4.6 model by default if you have your thing set up like mine.
13. I'm doing x3 for 21:9 1080P and below, and x2 for 4K and 16:9 1080P. Seems to work okay with a 3090 though I've only tested a couple videos, I'll report back.
14. The threads doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

Thank you to Chainik and the SVP team (IS there a team?) for making a great program, and thanks to UHD and everyone else who has contributed to this thread. The RIFE interpolation looks so good. I look forward to seeing it progress, and eagerly await the theoretical RTX 5090. Told myself I'd sit out this current generation now that GPUs cost more than my first car.

NOTE: If you read further down, we've determined V2 may be substantially reducing visual quality (at least at 4K). Recommend sticking with the out of the box RIFE model configuration for now. (V1 4.6 + TensorRT + performance boost).

Why do you use standard shader instead of complicated? I was under the assumption complicated was better than standard, just heavier on the system.

Are those the settings you would recommend for the best looking SVP possible? I have a R9 3900X and 2080Ti and am looking for the best 1080P/4K experience. Right now my settings are this: https://i.imgur.com/j0QtZp9.png

If I use 4px at 4K it just freezes. Not sure what the issue is there, with 8px at 4K it's only like 20% CPU usage and I have 32GB of RAM.

Thank you!
