KunGFu-L33t 10-14-2003 03:28 AM

hey guys i found a diff prob now :cry:

i can play the video and watch it no prob but at the bottom in grey writing "Script Error: there is no fuction called unfilter" flashes every now and then,

whats wrong with my code now?

Code:

AviSource("E:\KVCD\Work\niagara.avi",false)
ConvertToYV12()
FlipVertical()
undot()
asharp(1, 4)
GripCrop(352, 240, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0 )
MergeChroma(blur(1.50))
MergeLuma(blur(0.1))


SwitchThreshold = (Width<=352) ? 4 : (Width<=480) ? 3 : 2
ScriptClip("nf=YDifferenceToNext()"+chr(13)+"nf>=SwitchThreshold?unfilter(-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100)),-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100))):TemporalSoften(fmin(round(2/nf),6),round(1/nf),round(3/nf),1,1)")
GripBorders()


function fmin( int f1, int f2) { return ( f1<f2 ) ? f1 : f2 }

The message is cristalin : you are missing the plugin Unfilter.dll !
DL it and put it with all other plugin.

KunGFu-L33t 10-14-2003 07:05 AM

thats the thing i got "UnFilter.ddl" in my plugin's directory i just doubled checked then.

Dialhot 10-14-2003 07:21 AM

You have Unfilter.dll or Unfilter.ddl in your directory ?

Double check also the spelling. The message is clear : avisynth doesn't find the dll, so there must be a problem there.

KunGFu-L33t 10-14-2003 07:32 AM

Sorry its .dll but its UnFilter.dll, could it be the caps?

Dialhot 10-14-2003 07:39 AM

Not at all. Avs does not relies on the name of the plugin (else it will never find GripCrop because it is included in GrifitPreview_YV12.dll ! :-))

It loads everything that is in the plugin directory and llok for the name of the function that are declared in these dll.

You should check if you have DL the correct version of the DLL, if the read permission is set on the file.

KunGFu-L33t 10-14-2003 07:48 AM

8O YES DIALHOT I COMPLETLY UNDERSTAND YOU :lol:

All i know is that i downloaded the 2.5 version from this site...

http://www.trbarry.com/UnFilter.zip

and i put all the files in the 2.5 Alpha Folder inside the zip into my avisynth 2.5 plugins directory

Boulder 10-14-2003 08:07 AM

Did you extract the paths too? IIRC, the UnFilter dll is in a specific folder in the zip file. If you extract the file with "Use folder names" checked, the dll file ends up in a wrong place, such as c:\program files\avisynth 2.5\plugins\2.5 alpha\ whereas it should be c:\program files\avisynth 2.5\plugins\ .

KunGFu-L33t 10-15-2003 02:40 AM

No the dll is in the plugins folder for avisynth

Dialhot 10-15-2003 03:02 AM

Do a simple test with this script :
Code:

Avisource("the name of your avi")
Undot()

If it works, You definitely have a type mismatch somewhere in you're script. That's the only explanation.
Else, the filter isn't in the right directory.

You should only have DLLs and .AVSI files (if any) in the plugin folder! Other files may cause you problems, at least it was this way some time ago.

CheronAph 10-15-2003 03:52 AM

Like this,

LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\Mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\LegalClip.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\UnFilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\STMedianFilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\DustV5.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\DctFilter_YUY2.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\-=[ KVCD ]=-\Filters\Convolution3D.dll")


Mpeg2Source("D:\DVDtoKVCD\vts_03.d2v")

LegalClip()

unfilter(50,50)
GripCrop(704, 576, overscan=3)
#TextSub("D:\DVDtoKVCD\vts_01.srt")
GripSize(resizer="BicubicResize")
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0, 8, 32)
#SpaceDust() # Optional - for some "not so clean" DVDs.
temporalsmoother(1,2)
mergechroma(blur(1.50))
mergeluma(blur(0.2))
#Convolution3D(preset="animeBQ")
GripBorders()

LegalClip()

I use to have all .dll and associated documentation (.txt or .htm) in the plugin directory and there is no problem with this.

Never use "Textsub" in the middle of the script else the subtitle will be blured but the following filters and hard to read. It must be the last line before "GripBorders" (or just after if you want the subtitles in the black border and not on the image :idea:)

KunGFu-L33t 10-15-2003 04:39 AM

Dialhot i used your simple script you posted and it :evil: :x WORKED! :evil: :x .......

Here is my code again... whats rong with it...

Code:

AviSource("E:\Videos\KVCD\Work\niagara.avi",false)
ConvertToYV12()
FlipVertical()
undot()
asharp(1, 4)
GripCrop(352, 240, overscan=1, source_anamorphic=false)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0 )
MergeChroma(blur(1.50))
MergeLuma(blur(0.1))


SwitchThreshold = (Width<=352) ? 4 : (Width<=480) ? 3 : 2
ScriptClip("nf=YDifferenceToNext()"+chr(13)+"nf>=SwitchThreshold?unfilter(-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100)),-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100))):TemporalSoften(fmin(round(2/nf),6),round(1/nf),round(3/nf),1,1)")
GripBorders()


function fmin( int f1, int f2) { return ( f1<f2 ) ? f1 : f2 }

What i dont get is that i can watch the movie just it flashes the unfilter error in grey upside down, this has never occured to me within my whole KVCD encoding life (Which is about a week)

Lol. Welcome in the wonderful world of computing science :-)

ScriptClip("nf=YDifferenceToNext()"+chr(13)+"nf>=S witchThreshold?unfilter(-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100)),-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100))):TemporalSoften(fmin(round (2/nf),6),round(1/nf),round(3/nf),1,1)")
GripBorders()
I know we told you the opposite last time but try to add some spaces :
Code:

ScriptClip("nf=YDifferenceToNext()"+chr(13)+"nf>=SwitchThreshold ? unfilter(-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100)),-(fmin(round(nf)*2,100))) : TemporalSoften(fmin(round(2/nf),6),round(1/nf),round(3/nf),1,1)")
We will find the solution ! :-)

That's normal ! It's the meaning of "Motion Adaptative" ;-); The script adapts itself to the motion in the movie. In static scenes, it does a TemporalSoften. In quickly moving scenes, it does the unfilter (that is all the purpose of this weird "scriptclip" line).
That is why the error message flashes and is not constant : your movie has more static scenes than moving one, so the unfilter is rarely done.

Hey Phil,

could you post your MA script that CheronAph asked for? I'd also be interested in checking it out.

Also, can you figure out how to use the MA script with interlaced sources? It's easily done with spatial-only filters but with temporal ones it's a bit more tricky.

You mean the MA script that I use personnaly ? I'll try to think about it this evening.

I only have one source interlaced, so I'm not really the guy you need. I always do my test on it using fileddeinterlace, that's all.
