Hybrid: Input -> x264/x265/Xvid/VP8/VP9

Report problems with filters.

remind me again in case the attachment is approved before the next public release of Hybrid.

Warning about maximum bitrate, encoding duration, time?

max bitrate: less then uncompressed
encoding duration/time: no clue, longer or higher resolution file -> longer encoding duration

For Dummies.

from the homepage:

Hybrid is intended for advanced users.
It doesn't aim to be a tool used by everybody.
If you don't know the basics about contains, video formats, etc. Hybrid is not meant for you.

VPX
For the "lossless" encoding mode, a bitrate regulator is present (for AOM it is turned off).

That's a bug in the gui, will remove it in VPX too. (lossless should only be available when VP9 is used)

Hybrid rev 2018.12.09.1:
*fixed*

• jobs: deleting *.sub files
• Vapoursynth: mClean, missing libtemporalmedian dependency
• Subs: use more digits when calculation stretch factor
• Avisynth: selectEvery + Avisynth Filter View
• Avisynth: Preview filter reload
• Jobs: vpx mkv checks
• x265: minimize command line + weightb and preset slower+
• models: error messages about models which weren't created due to hardware/os limitations
• Avisynth: job id wasn't replaced when using dgindex

*added*

• jobs: parallel subjob-processing, process subjobs out of order and in parallel if possible
• muxing: use FFmpeg, enforces the use of ffmpeg as muxer, might be useful for bitrate stuffing

*changed*

• Qt Windows: using Qt 5.12 now
• code: some rearraning, which might speedup the startup when Avisynth is disabled.

yup, that was because of a typo. -> will be fixed in the next release

It is possible to expand the information in containers: color space, sub. saturation, matrix coefficient, bit stream, coding library, program settings?

[Selur]

(most of the options you mentioned are not characteristics of a container but a video stream, so I assume you want more data on the currently selected video stream)
In theory:
Hybrid could show way more of the data collected about a specific video stream.
In praxis:
Since:
a. you could simply use MediaInfo (Hybrid uses it was it main source for video header data; it also uses a mencoder, ffmpeg, tsmuxer,...)
b. I have no clue where to present that data in a meaningful way.
this is probably not going to happen.

Here's the data Hybrid usually keeps internally for a video stream:

Like "SEI info" for x265 (to see more information in MediaInfo). Need to ask the developers themselves?

i do get a crash - debug https://www.dropbox.com/s/6weagz9mog...utput.txt?dl=0

i do get several popups from Hybrid before the crash (which the contents maybe in the debug, but i took screens of them anyhow) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d637wfto2...iB2xw1gOa?dl=0

hope that helps.

Thanks.

Subsampling saturation

Sorry that combination of words does not hold any information for me.
I know luma subsampling or color spaces like 4:2:0, I know of subsampling in context of signaling or rate control, but no clue what 'subsampling saturation' refers to.

@DJ-1: I think I fixed those. Will send you a link to my current dev version in a few minutes.

Avisynth Mode - Deinterlace - QTGMC (Slower) preset + bobbed output + Avisynth / Frame - sRestore to 23.976

Hope you checked that T/VIVTC isn't a better solution.
Also ignoring using Config->Internals->Handling->Ignore all input timecodes with be a good idea.

This is exactly what is read in the Russian version of MediaInfo.
In English now I see "Сhromа subsampling".
Chromа = Saturation
-------
Launch Hybrid (In the line we see the resolution of the frame --input-res 48x48) > I apply the frame crop function (↑132/↓132) > Add the any video file to the program - The cropping did not apply (--input-res 48x48 still on the command line).

[Selur]

Launch Hybrid, ...

doesn't happen here so I probably fixed it already

Ah, lost in translation.
Still probably not going to add any additional source info view.

If you just want to know the chroma subsampling, load a source and either look into the Avisynth or Vapoursynth script preview.
The Avisynth script contains: '# input color sampling YV12' and the Vapoursynth script also should have info about the input chroma sampling, like 'YUV420P8'.

ok, i got the dev version, cheers.
same job, with the `ignore input timecodes` setting enabled
job ran successfully without popup errors/msgs etc, although slowly (only using 18% CPU)....but without crash was the main part.
debug : https://www.dropbox.com/s/smmrmemx91...utput.txt?dl=0

i did try it after without enabling `ignore input timecodes` out of curiosity...
crashed

..yeah i did look on doom9 forum to see what other peoples experiences were with the DVD sources i have (US Family Guy) & the outcome seemed there was a choice of either
tdeint (at double rate (mode1 i think)) + sRestore
or
QTGMC Default preset + bobbed output + sRestore

.....this was just the start of the testing...

cheers.
shall i leave the `ignore input timecodes` off all the time then?, its not set by default.

[Selur]

shall i leave the `ignore input timecodes` off all the time then?, its not set by default.

Normally Hybrid automatically ignores the time codes when input from MakeMKV is detected, not totally sure why that didn't happen.
-> enable it when you feed Hybrid with input from MakeMkv
