I'm upgrading from an RTX 2070 Super to an RTX 3090 (arriving in a week). Can I use RIFE for 4K content on a 60Hz 4K TV with an RTX 3090? Looking forward to finally trying out RIFE and hopefully even more optimisations in the future too. Kudos to the devs and everyone involved, I've supported SVP since the early days and to now it is one of my most used programs <3

wort case you can apply downscaling to say 90% and it will work just fine

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

Hi,

I'm trying to use the RIFE profile realtime while playing a video using MPV. I play a movie, then switch to the RIFE profile, video stops playing, CMD prompt pops up and closes after a few minutes (without errors as far as I can tell) but the video just resumes in its normal format and CPU/GPU load is 0%. I'm using the RIFE tensor core version running on a 3080ti.

Nothing seems to happen. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Update, can't post in a new post (new account) so I'll edit this one for now:

Ok, how do I get that version? I installed everything new today.

According to the details of the file 4.5.0.246 so that seems correct.

Searched all my drives and found an older version in some older mpv player folder, replaced the file and that seems to work!

On tensor rife 4.6 %15 scene change threshold i get lag on fast panning scenes just like on vulkan 4.4 with %10 scene change threshold. My gpu usage is around %50-55. Is there a solution for this ?

With new installing svp, mpv also seems to be broken. Svp doesn't see mpv.

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

Hey all.  I'm getting an error in the upper left of my video when using RIFE ncnn/Vulkan generic 4.4 profile in MPC-HC.  Any idea how to fix or at least hide it? 

Thanks in advance!!


EDIT:  Since I cant post another reply for 2 hours - THANK YOU Chainik!!!!  That was indeed the fix.

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

Just an update:

I'm running a 3080ti using the RIFE tensor profile with 4 threads, version 4.6, and using 15% scene threshold running at 48fps (2x movie). GPU load is around 30% using 1080p sources and 4k sources about 50%. So that's perfect. To my eye's it works better than my SVP profile, but that also works pretty well with zero load on the GPU.

I have two questions:

My user defined settings from my original SVP profile are also applied to the RIFE profile. Do these settings actually do something when using RIFE? Been tweaking a bit but it's hard to notice any difference.

Second question, what does the screen threshhold % actually do? Could not find much information about it (prob not searching in the right place). I've now set it at 15%.

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

> Do these settings actually do something when using RIFE?

nope

> what does the screen threshhold % actually do?

check if two adjacent frames are in different scenes or not, i.e. the frames are the same (but slightly moved) or completely different. if yes then there's no interpolation between these frames.

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

I just checked now. It is possible to play 4k UHD movies in MPC HC with 12900K and 4090, with x2 Movie setting in Tensor without hiccups. 60 fps is too heavy, maybe in the future with Chainik's new cool updates smile However x2 Movie with Tensor is way better than regular interpolation, so I will use it for every case from now on. I had lost my hope long time ago to have rife in 4k, this update was really revolutionary for me, great job SVP Team!

Actually after some experiments, I realized that, thanks to dlr5668 for pointing me out, from svp settings I downscaled the image to 3200x1800. Now I can play 60fps fixed screen refresh rate. Then I can use madvr image upscaling NGU Sharp to upscale image back to 4k. It works super fluid now.

I got the idea from using Nvidia DLSS for games. Rendering at lower resolution and then upscaling at the end big_smile

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

Trying this out on a 2160p Doctor Strange at x4 FPS and the 4090 struggles though it only shows 70-80% GPU usage.



x3 works perfectly though.

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

RTX 3090 when I change the engine to NVIDIA TensorRT and open a video, it opens a command prompt and it keeps loading... Do I just have to wait? Or? I thought it would be faster than Vulkan which plays instantly but can only do 1080p for me, and was hoping to try nVidia TensorRT.

What am I doing wrong? So is it just that I have to wait and let it do its thing? How long do I wait for it?

Open SVP. Top left open the drop down menu. Utilities>additional programs and features>add or remove components>scroll all the way down. Second one from the bottom is RIFE/TensorRT(beta). Select it and install

Let's try this:

0. nothing to do with Python big_smile
1. download --> https://www.svp-team.com/files/temp/rife-trt-0901.7z <--, unpack into SVP 4\rife (you should already have this folder), so vstrt.dll must be in the root, i.e. SVP 4\rife\vstrt.dll
2. replace generate.js, base.py in SVP 4\script; restart SVP to be sure
3. menu -> Applications settings -> Additional options -> All settings, go to 'User defined options'
Title: TensortRT; Script name: rife_trt; Other values by default - "FRC profile", "ON or OFF"
Click 'Add option'
Go to the RIFE video profile, see the added TensortRT on/off swtich.
Make a copy of the RIFE video profile, one with TensorRT ON and another with OFF.

Pros:
- no Pytorch!
- works in a real-time
- even faster (?) than vsrife [could be just because of some TensorRT options]
Cons:
- even slower (?) first-time initialization [could be just because of some TensorRT options]
- a nasty command-line window will pop-up for every new video resolution

It's OK for the command-line window to stay for 4-5 mins. Don't close it! Wait!

How do I get the file to follow this installation ?
I used to follow this installation method and happy with it, but after update, i regret now.
I think it's much better than version update in SVP now
I can choose to load model from: https://github.com/styler00dollar/Vapou … cnn-Vulkan the assemble version pretty smooth and not only limited by version 4.4 and 4.6 now in SVP
Chainik, please help

Re: New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!!

I have a question regarding the bottleneck when using rife tensorRT engine on higher resolutions. I have 12900K oc to 5.2ghz all cores, 6000mhz DDR5 32gb and RTX 4090. I play 1800p rife on svp with madvr on mpc-hc 4k UHD files which have bitrate around 70-100 mbps. CPU usage is around 20-30%, GPU usage around 50%, total ram usage is around 20gb at 60fps interpolation. If I try higher resolutions, then the framerate cannot keep up anymore but the CPU GPU usage are not so different than before. Can it be the RAM speed or maybe tensor cores are full on 4090 or is there some other reason? I am absolutely fine with playing videos on 1800p, I see no difference with native 4k and 1800p even on 160 inch screen with projector but still I am curious about what is causing this bottleneck.

I need someone to confirm with me.

here is Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ON
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/290709370600423424/1066759015536799855/image.png

Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling OFF, FPS increase a lot.

Windows 11 has Hardware-accelerated GPU turn on by default, you can turn it off by go to System > display > graphics > default graphics settings > turn it off then restart PC.

Wow, I turned off HAGS now and 4k 60 FPS runs like a breeze. Thank you guys, I never thought that would be the reason. God damn HAGS big_smile
