Yes and no. The nuance is a bit specific to how Git works.

Git itself is a very decentralized development platform, so 'fork' can carry a much less confrontational connotation than it did in the earlier days of FOSS development.

pinterf had opened pull requests for upstream to merge several times before ultim went on hiatus in 2016. That most recent one, #101, wasn't merged before ultim left, so pinterf's personal repo those PRs were opened from became the de facto development HEAD. If we needed to get something merged, the PRs were submitted to pinterf, and became part of pull request #101.

In June, ultim came back for a moment and granted pinterf and myself commit rights to the main repository so that it could stay up-to-date. Basically, the development HEAD of the project is back at its original location.

Then I guess I can move to https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases as default download source now, assuming that all the developers will contribute there now.

Yep, now I can work directly into the master branch of the original AvisynthPlus repo, thanks qyot27 to make this step.

I met ultim in the summer, he told he was willing to give access to http://avs-plus.net . But at that time (and since then as well) I was engaged in office work and other activities so I postponed the decision whether I wanted to deal with it or not.

StackHorizontal(C,Last)

#Trim(255,-1)    # Only show last frame where result should be WHITE.
I had posted this earlier in this thread [as EDIT] but forgot, here:- http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...79#post1886179

EDIT: both W and K have to be single frame to fail, I cant re-check as I'm in middle of system restore from image.
EDIT: I would expect it to behave like the other runtime filters, it is commonplace to return a single frame in eg Scriptclip, makes no difference to length of outut
clip, which is guaranteed same as input.
Works as expected. The frame count of ConditionalFilter depends only on W and K, namely max(K.FrameCount, W.FrameCount).
See https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynth...ional.cpp#L233

So the output contains exactly 1 frames and when you do StackHorizontal with the original 256-frame clip, it will show the same single frame on the right.

Thanks P,
I guess that I have generally misunderstood the operation of that filter, also explains why I usually avoid it altogether.
I am now questioning my entire mental model of the Universe.

EDIT: OT
There was a TV series in the UK called "Baby Its you" :- https://www.walltowall.co.uk/program...-world_26.aspx
(Google search to avoid song of same name, "Baby Its you" TV -song")
EDIT: aka "A Baby’s World", narrated by Bill Paterson. [Ally Frazer in "Auf Wiedersehen Pet"]

They had a ~6 month old strapped into a chair, blank room with nothing of interest to distract infant.
In front of baby, a table and an up/down sliding wall.

From the side, out comes a little wooden doll and goes behind the wall. Wall goes down and there is the single wooden doll.
Doll exits stage right, back behind curtain from whence it came, wall goes up.

Operation repeats with two individual dolls going behind all, wall drops, two dolls revealed, both exit stage right, wall goes up.

Operation repeats again with two individual dolls going behind wall, wall drops,
but this time there are three dolls revealed.
Baby in chair throws up its arms and with look look of total horror on its face,
you could read its thoughts, "Damn, sometimes 1 + 1 = 3 ???".

That baby is probably now a theoretical mathematician, or total math dunce.

The above award winning TV program is available on DVD, (Think I'll get it, it was most compelling viewing).

Also, the changelog is also much shorter there than it appears in the readme.txt. I don't know who is maintaining the links there.

Note, that my earlier releases with suffix filesonly.7z were containing the same dlls as the main installer, in this 3.4 release there is no such option yet.

And a question: in which environment should someone use the GCC build?

I am finding AviSynth+ 3.4.0–20191020 bit slower than previous 2915 (x64 environment).

First script:
PHP Code:
SetMemoryMax(8000)
SetFilterMTMode("DEFAULT_MT_MODE"2)
LoadPlugin("D:\eseguibili\media\DGDecNV_x64\DGDecodeNV.dll")
DGSource("E:\in\2_23 Shining (remastered extended)\01222.dgi")
CompTest(1)
SMDegrain (tr=4thSAD=500refinemotion=falsen16=truemode=0contrasharp=falsePreFilter=4truemotion=falseplane=4chroma=true)
Prefetch(6
2915: encoded 2072 frames, 10.49 fps, 2432.63 kb/s
3.4.0–20191020: encoded 2072 frames, 10.05 fps, 2432.63 kb/s

Same script but with tr=6:

2915: encoded 2072 frames, 7.91 fps, 2312.11 kb/s
3.4.0–20191020: encoded 2072 frames, 7.42 fps, 2312.09 kb/s

Can you confirm this?

Why are you adding useless complexity to this comparison by bringing an encoder into it? Measure the speed of the script and report memory usage, fps, etc.

I noticed that too. I *think* it might be a script that just automatically thinks .7z archive = portable.

I mean, there is Installation_Instructions.txt in the archive that says exactly what you need to do with it, and the .dlls being in typical FHS-style directories (x86_64-w64-mingw32/[bin|include|lib] and i686-w64-mingw32/[bin|include|lib]) rather than the way they're organized for DLL-only MSVC builds should be another point making it obvious.

I could say 'to test with', but that's only somewhat true because the build does work just fine on its own and with the plugins included with it (and C plugins). It can be used to test whether your C++ plugin can work correctly when built with GCC, though (or to run speed tests, or to be able to use gdb to debug, I suppose, although that's not a debug build).

64-bit builds of FFmpeg and VirtualDub2 are fine with the GCC builds. The 32-bit ones need separate builds to work correctly with it (at least in FFmpeg's case).

Really?!

Another set of plugins?

Please some pity with the users.

If even a guru like StainlessS downloads the wrong version just because it is at the top of the list then something is wrong with the download page.

No "normal" AVS user knows the difference between an MSVC build and a GCC build, and nobody has a clue about the restrictions of the GCC build.

So at least the GCC version should be slightly hidden, and there should be a clear warning (in red bold letters) that this version is not meant for the average user.

Unless you're fine completely abandoning the use of C++ plugins, there's no way around that problem. C++ implementations are compiler-specific, and C++ plugins must be built with the same compiler that built the program core. The things that might have been able to partially smooth over this problem would have the effect of completely breaking existing 2.5, 2.6, and Plus plugins and would have had to have been done years before AviSynth+ even existed.

The C API is the easiest way to avoid that problem, because it sidesteps the issue entirely. But there's not a whole lot of C plugins, and only two or three I'd consider to be of major importance (the C-plugin variant of FFMS2, AssRender, and maybe yadif).

I had to rename it in order for it not to be first in the list anymore (the order is down to Github's own sorting), and I added a warning to the release post.

Under Windows? Speed tests, compiler compliance tests, and debugging with gdb (although as I noted before, the available GCC build is not a debug build and has its symbols stripped). Cross-compiling with MinGW-w64 under MSys2, Cygwin, or from Linux distros.

GCC support is paramount for cross-platform development, though. GCC (or compilers that stay compatible with GCC's output) is dominant on pretty much everything that's not Windows. At present in one of the development branches, nearly all of the AviSynth+ core and filters can compile natively on Linux. The missing bits are critical for it actually working on there, but basically, that leap to being fully cross-platform is tantalizingly close now - and a significant reason is because GCC compliance was added 3 years ago.

The previous post is mostly false. There's clang-cl which does support the visual studio c++ ABI on windows. Thin api wrapper layers are also an option. För some reason you chose to produce a mostly unusable build configuration on windows.

Thanks qyot27 for the clarifications and for editing the GitHub download page...

About the speed issues which were reported by tormento:

I tried to replicate the issues under a 32-bit environment, and I couldn't. The script speeds reported by AvsMeter were always identical, and measuring the speeds for a real conversion using X264 was also uneventful. I always got the same speed with AVS+ 3.40 and AVS+ r2915, no matter how simple or complex my script was.

Could this issue be a 64-bit thing?

I didn't mention clang-cl mostly because my point was that VC++ and MinGW/GCC have incompatible ABIs and avisynth.h and related bits don't try to reconcile them. I could have been more precise, or just pointed to this post by JEEB from several years ago.

Quote:

A C++ wrapper over a standard C API (tp7 mentioned this as the goal for AviSynth+'s future API development, but it obviously never happened), or a C++ wrapper around an incompatible C++ ABI? The former is what I usually see suggested, not the latter.

The AviSynth main page at avisynth.nl still points to the latest GitHub pinterf Avisynth+ r2772 version instead of the current page for version 3.40.

Could someone please consolidate the links?

I agree. Currently, it is a nightmare for the newbie to find the correct version to install. The first result when you google Avisynth+ is avs-plus.net, and finding this thread is not obvious for many peoples.

avs-plus.net should be closed, and a similar site with clear links to download the latest stable version should be created.
