Show Frame type (I, P, B) in Avisynth

Show Frame type (I, P, B) in Avisynth

Hello friends

I wanted to know if there is any other way to see the frame type (I, B, P) in Avisynth apart from these that I mention below.


-FFinfo()
-DGSource("",Show=true)
-Info() ---(this does not show the frame type . but it does show other things)

is there any other way to visualize in avisynth the frame type of the video ?

it would be very good to implement in AVSmod this feature to show the type of frame in the video (I, P, B)

Thank you

Pretty much all you can do.
Code:
FN="d:\GetSeq_Test\TEST\tears_of_steel_1080pwebm.webm"
FFVideosource(FN)

SSS=""" Subtitle(String(current_frame,"%.0f] ")+Chr(FFPICT_TYPE)) """

Scriptclip(SSS,After_Frame=True)
Only source filter can ever know the frame type, above FFVideosource exposes this [so that it could be used Programmatically].

DGSource(...,show=true) will show the frame coding type. Make sure you have the top left corner of the video showing. Why is this not enough for you?

Good to know, thanks. [I've never used DGSource].

Would not be such a bad thing if DGSource exposed frame type similar to FFVideoSource [something to consider for some future update].

Set some named Global or Local variable [your choice], maybe let user select some prefix to the variable name.
A bit easier if return type Int as FFVideoSource does, string return swallows string memory [at every frame EDIT: unless you know for sure its maximum possible length] and requires messing about with
env->SaveString() for the string variable value, but still need to env->SaveString() for the variable Name [if Global, can do once in constructor so that
you know that the variable name already exists EDIT: or can check for already existing name before setting variable].

EDIT: ApparentFPS() sets some variables for user script use.

Would not be out of order if LSmashSource() did the same too.

If you have a compatible NVidia card/chip it's really a no-brainer.

I dont, so thats a no-brainer too

[I got an NV GT520 [OEM Palit] which I aint never got to do much, old crappish but small low power 2GB card (29Watts)].

It already does so for Vapoursynth native use. I could do it for Avisynth+ native. Are there any standard variables that have been used for this?

@MeteorRain

Smart move.

So, why don't you use that one?

As posted previously in post #2 codeblock, FFPICT_TYPE, Type Int.
Single letter ASCII code for frame type, value as Ord('I'), Ord('P'), ord('B'), for I, P and B frames, cant remember if upper or lowercase. See FFMPEGSource docs, may be more defined, (dont know).
EDIT: Think uppercase, I seem to remember code 73 as 'I' frame.

Code:
FN="d:\GetSeq_Test\TEST\tears_of_steel_1080pwebm.webm"
FFVideosource(FN)

SSS=""" Subtitle(String(current_frame,"%.0f] ")+Chr(FFPICT_TYPE)) """

Scriptclip(SSS,After_Frame=True)

Guess I just expect it not to work, never has been much use at anything else I've tried.

I got a GT220 as well I think (somewhere).

Thanks StainlessS. Sounds good.

The 520 is pretty low end these days. No HEVC for example. But it's not totally useless; you can run CUDA filters and it does support 4K AVC.

Thanks, so not a complete loser then
The m/c that its in is Small Form Factor, only room for 6 inch card and very power limited (total power 300Watt), max for PCI express is I think 30W so 29 watt is about as hi power as it can take.

I have only a GT 1030, less than 70 € in my country, silent (without coolers), only 30 W (without need extra power).

I can't encode but yes decode until HEVC 4:2:0 12 bit and use DG filters.

EDIT: but the 6 inch card is a hard limit, mine is 7
Maybe this one

Thanks Teb,
seems that you have to be a little careful with that card (there are two versions, one fast, one not so fast):- https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonev.../#47baa35393d9
The one you point to is of the faster variety (GDDR5)
.

EDIT: @videoh
You might also want to check that resultant variable name (assuming user adjustable in some way), is a legal variable name, ie '_' or alpha for start character, and thereafter digits also allowed.
