BSVideoSource("E:\Video\HEVC.mp4",HWDevice=d3d11va)

I get an error playing the script through mpc-hc :



Same issue replacing d3d11va by dxva2 or vulkan hardware device type.

And also same error playing the script through ffmpeg executable...

Without hwdevice argument, that works, of course, as expected.

And using such hardware decoding directly through FFmpeg, that works also correctly :


Any idea ?

Erff, I missed the quotation mark since its a string

LoadPlugin("E:\tools\bestsource\BestSource.dll")
BSVideoSource("E:\Video\HEVC.mp4",HWDevice="d3d11va")

Sorry for the noise...vulkan is still not supported yet, right ?

I actually haven't tested it. It's also possible the release wasn't compiled with support enabled. Will investigate before next release

out of curiosity why is there no GStreamer plugin for VapourSynth ?

I had a horrible FFmpeg experience back when I used to use Windows 7 before I moved to Linux

Does BestSource work on Avisynth 64 non plus version?

Probably not? Not tested at least.

R11 is out. It fixes the framerate guessing problems reported earlier in the thread.

Avisynth script

LoadPlugin(".\BestSource.dll")  # ALSO in plugins

#LSmashVideoSource(".\v.mp4") # OK

BSVideoSource(".\v.mp4") # Avisynth Open Failure: Script Error: There is no function named "BSVideoSource". (c:\Z\v.avs, line 5)
#BSSource(".\v.mp4")     # Avisynth Open Failure: Script Error: There is no function named "BSSource".      (c:\Z\v.avs, line 6)

return last

Am I doin' summick daft, or dont it work no more.

EDIT:

 32 Bit:  Avisynth (x86) is not installed
 64 Bit:  AviSynth+ 3.7.5 (r4289, 3.7, x86_64) (3.7.5.0)

Right, can't use ci builds made with gcc for releases because then avisynth doesn't work. Redownload the binaires and it should be fixed now.

I had downed it a number of times before, but was the first time I'de tried it, <my template scripts tend to use LSmash or other, based upon file extension>
Works a treat now, thanx, you're such a sweetie

Hi.
When opening 16-bit PNG with BSVideoSource, the R and B channels seem to be swapped.

BSVideoSource("https://media.xiph.org/sintel/sintel-4k-png16/00006661.png")
Spline36Resize(1024, 436)
G=last.showGreen()
B=last.showBlue()
R=last.showRed()
StackVertical(last, mergeRGB(B, G, R))

result:

[Myrsloik]

Will be fixed in the next release
