toaster511, you wouldn't happen to live more towards the equator, would you?  I mean, where I live (Northeast Ohio) the average low for outside temperature at this time of year (summer) is around 60f/15c.

I live in UK, but it's a small room for the PC. Thinking I might have put the fan in the wrong side... SSD used to be 25-30c at most, now is reaching 50. Hopefully because of the summer and not the fan.
P.S. Sorry for offtopic

Edit: I tried today the new version a few times and it's crashing most of the times when I click preview. Sometimes its "preparing file", other times is Access Violation in line 15 of AVS script. I noticed this happening when NEEDI3 are enabled. Maybe because I have 2xNEEDI3 enabled?
Sharpen Final option says 100 is the maximum, but never allows more than 50 smile You can fix that.
Also, why did you limit the x264 to 18 maximum quality? I needed more than that to preserve quality loss from all that transcoding. Hope you will allow it. Thanks

I guess it's just that the PC heats my whole room like sauna. So idle temps are always 45-46. I think it's pretty normal for x264 to reach temperatures that high.
And no, I didnt use NNEDI, just >60fps only. But even in Handbrake reaches 100c. So my only option is to limit CPU affinity and disabling some cores.

Which software do you use to get the 256 AAC? I'm youtube-dl user, but still it's not showing. They removed them 2 months ago.
Edit: I was not reading right. All videos before May 2015 should have 256 AAC. Only the newer miss it.

Also, can you include option for Multi-Core selector in the Encode window? I have 4790K + EVO 212 but it's still reaching 102°C. This is not a problem of your software, but x264 as it's power hungry.

So, did you find a way to get format 141? (256 AAC)
As much as I love and use opus, the youtube opus versions miss a lot of details (probably because of multiple transcoding, especially when source is not lossless audio).

2 months ago they stopped using AAC 256 and also changed to VP9 (which again is not good to me, it makes picture blocky, but with a bit more details, compared to H264)

Edit: You can see here the worst case scenario VP9 I've found, and that's it at 4K where it's best. Lol! The VP9 file is 100 mb larger and more bitrate, but result...

My point: VP9 always uses vector blocks to mask grain, which to my eye is horrible. So don't bother preferring it to H264 just yet. Probably when they improve it in the future.
Btw, great job! Just tried your tool and it's so much easier than before. Thanks!

Hi, which settings exactly? I disabled frame size to both profiles.
I don't wanna touch "Frames interpolation mode & SVP Shader" as they make the smooth effect the most.

PS: I don't use two monitors, just one - the new 27 inch.
I was only explaining that everything worked perfect before, but turns out my native desktop resolution causes problems.

If I switch back the desktop resolution to 1080p - problem solved. But on 1440p native - nope.

I don't wanna run 1080p desktop on 27 inch only because of SVP.

With 1440p desktop resolution even some 1080p videos lag. I can't run any 1440p video on SVP if my desktop is 1440p too.
If I increase processing threads from auto to 8 - the cpu load drops by 20%, but it starts lagging even more.

Possible a bug you can look into? Or 1440p desktop resolution takes too much CPU resources? I feel like my hardware is already outdated... and I bought everything last month.

GTX 970 is my GPU. When I made 1080p my native desktop resolution, the problem is gone. So native 1440p resolution is buggy with svp. Any video lags with 1440p native desktop. Maybe SVP bug?
Edit: I have 1440p and 4K profiles. I changed frame size to disabled. Problem still here.

Hi.

I was running SVP recently on my 24' 1080p. Even on 4K videos, my GTX 970 + i7 4790k could handle it.

However now I switched to 27' 1440p and DisplayPort. No matter 1440p or 4K, says SVP performance too low and lags awful.

What do you think is the problem? The native desktop resolution rendering matters? Or is it the displayport cable?

Hi,
Sorry for late response.
Chris Brown - Love More (Explicit).flv (Display aspect ratio: 2.500, 1920x768)
Drake - Hold On, We're Going Home.flv (Display aspect ratio: 2.40:1, 1920x768)
Ellie Goulding - Burn.flv (Display aspect ratio: 2.40:1, 1920x784)
Ne-Yo - Let Me Love You (Until You Learn To Love Yourself).flv (Display aspect ratio: 2.553, 1920x752)

I guess the aspect ratio is the problem.

Also, does madVR degrade the picture quality, even a bit?
I guess its like EVR?
And what is the difference between ffdshow raw and normal? I tend to use the raw one only.

Hi,

Does filename have importance for stereo mode?
By default, now is enabled Plain 2D. What sould I set to?
I changed to whatever possibly I could without success.

Here are few examples for stereo mode detection:

Filename is: Chris Brown - Love More (Explicit).flv
23.976 fps

Filename: Drake - Hold On, We're Going Home.flv
23.976 fps

Filename: Ellie Goulding - Burn.flv
25.000 fps

Filename: Ne-Yo - Let Me Love You (Until You Learn To Love Yourself).flv
23.976 fps

I ran tearing test. The first file I linked to have the orange line moving like crazy. I have the same file in 720p - same story.
After that I ran it on 1080p 5 mb/s bitrate file - no problems at all. It's weird that it makes problems only on random videos.

I added madVR alone with prefer option and without ffdshow - it didn't work, so I added ffdshow back with madVR (both with prefer option). No tray icon or anything but the video goes so smooth without any glitch!
That's awesome!

Thanks for the support!

Hi,

I have recently started having more and more problems.

To describe it best I will post 2 links here.

The first problem is I get something like ghosting (but probably not) - it's moving parts of the picture almost all the time on some videos (normal bitrate).
Strangely this only happens when GPU (OpenCL) is enabled. Unfortunately I can't watch some videos without it because it lags pretty much and audio is out of sync / stops.
Video: http://youtu.be/jdMfeLaalu4

The second problem is I get some of my videos automatically separated by 2 on the screen (I can't explain this to myself)
Video: http://youtu.be/950IbPzq6A0

Now, my configuration is:
i7-2600k
GTX 560 Ti (3096 MB)
16 GB RAM

Using latest drivers from NVidia (331.65)
I've noticed the first problem started to happen after 326.x drivers.
The second one I'm not sure.

Using latest version K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 10.1.0

I run on Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)

My SVP settings are attached below. I've changed to lowest quality possible and I still get the same.

P.S. Sometimes I get audio problems only, playing on the right speaker only.

Hope you can let me know what's wrong. I've tried to search in google without success.

Thanks
