@revgen: if you cannot use something else than Paint then just ensure to set the image size to 1x1 pixels via
Image -> Attributes
before pasting an image!

this will avoid the white borders!

I have no idea how to use paint.

I'll do it next time.

scharfis, I put up a new nnedi.dll at the same location as before. Can you dl it and see if it fixes the problems with sse. The last one I put up always used sse (then compared the results for each routine to the C version) so opt didn't do anything.

this version behaves like the original one:
- no debugview output
- opt=1 produces a nice output
- opt=2 produces garbage


btw.: I am working with AVS 2.58

One more time, same link as before. If it still doesn't work I'm out of ideas.

Still the same:

EDIT: I just tested it in Microsoft VirtualPC on a fresh, virgin-like install of WindowsXP.
The result was the same:
- opt=1 OK
- opt=2/0 Garbage

Is it possible, that my CPU is faulty and processes SSE commands in a wrong way?
Are there programs to check for correct execution of commands (or command sets like SSE)?

I don't know of any programs to check correct execution of sse, but I also haven't looked for one. The only thing that makes the findCluster sse routine (which is the only one that doesn't work correctly on your computer) different from the other sse routines is that it uses the 'comiss' instruction. The rest of it is almost exactly the same as one of the other routines which works correctly.

Maybe someone else with an athlon xp can test?

Here are the C/sse routines, maybe someone can see something I can't:
Code:
int findCluster_C(const float *input, const float *clusters, const int n)
{
   int idx;
   float mdiff = FLT_MAX;
   for (int i=0; i<n; ++i)
   {
      float diff = 0.0f;
      for (int j=0; j<100; ++j)
         diff += (input[j]-clusters[j])*(input[j]-clusters[j]);
      if (diff < mdiff)
      {
         mdiff = diff;
         idx = i;
      }
      clusters += 100;
   }
   return idx;
}

__declspec(align(16)) const float sse_floatmax[4] = 
      { FLT_MAX, FLT_MAX, FLT_MAX, FLT_MAX };

int findCluster_SSE(const float *input, const float *clusters, const int n)
{
   int idx;
   __asm
   {
      xor eax,eax
      mov edx,n
      mov esi,clusters
      movaps xmm7,sse_floatmax
i_loop:
      mov edi,input

      addps xmm0,xmm1
      movaps xmm1,xmm0

      jae check_loop

      mov idx,eax

      add eax,1
      cmp eax,edx
      jl i_loop
   }
   return idx;
}

@tritical

First of all thank for this contribution; in a fast look (didn't analyze code) if I don't remember wrong
psrlq xmm1,32 is a SSE2 instruction not supported in old SSE capables cpus. All xmm instructions in SSE
are just for floating point ones.
I have not my papers here but ALMOST sure about that.
Best regards for this project

Yep, psrlq xmm1,32 is an SSE2 instruction.

A convienient reference is distrib/include/SoftWire/InstructionSet.cpp

One of SHUFPS, UNPCKLPS or UNPCKHPS is probably what you want.

I'm loving this filter. It's really fast and does a terrific job when used with yadifmod.
I could'nt ask for more.

Oops! Looks like I missed this post.

That's not too bad at all for Yadif. I'll try it out myself later.

Thank you ARDA and IanB. I replaced psrlq with shufps. The funny thing is I originally added movaps/psrlq to replace pshufd so that it wouldn't require SSE2.

I put up a new version at the same link as before. scharfis or Fizick, could you test it when you have time?

Revgen, could you try to include TDeint+NNEDI+TMM on your comparison?

Hmm... I didn't know about TMM until you mentioned it. I'll try it out as soon as my other encode is finished.

Okay I checked out TDeint+TMM+NNEDI. The good news is that it rivals MVBob (with either EEDI or NNDI in the script) in terms of quality and stability. The bad news is that it's about as slow as MVBob too. And this is with Threads=2 enabled for NNEDI. It doesn't come close to MCBob though, regardless of whether MCBob is using the NNEDI or not.

[Hint]I wonder if Tritical would be interested in adding an Emask parameter to Yadifmod.[/Hint]

It would be nice to see what result we get with Yadif combined with NNEDI and TMM.

If you were to going to use tmm/nnedi you would get the same output as using tdeint+tmm+nnedi... there wouldn't be anything for yadif to do. It doesn't matter anyways, because yadif doesn't use a motion mask like tmm outputs. Yadif doesn't make a straight weave or don't weave decision. It starts with the spatial prediction, and then limits that value to be within 'diff' of the weaved prediction (average of pixels from the prev and next fields). 'diff' is calculated from temporal differences and spatial differences.

There is one obvious improvement that can be made to yadif, and that is to slide the temporal window. Right now it is basically a five field check that checks only the middle case... so, for example, it will never output the weaved prediction if the center field (the one being turned into a frame) is within 2 fields (ahead or back) of a scenechange. The only downside is the added computational complexity. Making it check all five cases is on my list of things to do.

Thanks for more toys to play with!

What's the difference, algorithmically, between NNEDI and EEDI2? (Apart from EEDI2 wanting the fields, and NNEDI throwing one field away from a frame?)

Should I stop using EEDI2 and start using pointresize.NNEDI?

Cheers,
David.
