I've updated my QuickTGMC script to version 2.1 Focus in this version has been the high quality settings, with nearly every last feature of the original TGMC now fully supported. Particular attention has been paid to the "Very Slow" and "Placebo" presets which are lovely now. I've added a new...

I focus on quality rather than size, but from what I know: It's true that the slowest settings (e.g. 221 or 222) produce smaller files because the larger temporal smoothing radius denoises more (and removes more bob-shimmer). Although it also removes grain from the source, which I'm not so...

He only just started work again in April after two years of no development. I missed it until recently.

QuickTGMC 3.32 - A flexible high-quality deinterlacer meguIVit is an addon to meguIV that includes this QuickTGMC script. It's the easiest way to install and use QuickTGMC. I'll keep this page up to date though. QuickTGMC is a very high quality deinterlacing script for AviSynth. It is...

I see - I've recently been noticing that MeguIV is slower than a fully updated meGUI + latest plugins and I think this is the reason. Manao has actively updating MaskTools v2 of late, and his recent work has been rewriting core functions in assembly. TGMC uses these functions a lot so it...

Rollyco, What version of MaskTools (which alpha revision) does MeguIV use?

I had problems somewhat like this with a stick of memory that went bad. If you were to get CRC errors copying files on a different disk, then that would be a sure sign. Try memtest86+ to check.

Most of the high quality rips on this site are made with MeguIV. The easiest way to make a high-quality rip is to follow the instructions in that thread. MeguIV is Rollyco's tweak of meGUI. meGUI is an integrated front-end for a collection of ripping and encoding tools. However, use MeguIV...

Bump. Does anyone know? I don't want to test it only to find that it does break.

Fair choice, the difference between 1080 and 720 is there - but it's really not all that much. Make sure you use the double rescaling trick from my other post, it's a big speedup with no ill effects at all. Edit: Ouch, I just realized that you mean first pass only. Well worth it for the first...

Lol, can't work out if that's bribery or blackmail... I had started downloading while your router was still warm... Thanks!

Hi-speed TGMC Substitute Updated version of QuickTGMC now available Posting this here mainly for guy and his Blu-Ray ripping adventure (can't PM him). Maybe someone else will find it useful. This is a very fast substitute for TGMC. In its normal mode it can do a 60fps DVD rip at more than half...

You can set the AR in the One-click advanced settings. Just did a tiny test and it seemed to work. Autodetect defaults to ITU formats though - to get non-ITU, you have to make the correct selection yourself But it does make me think: idol videos are shot on DV, then encoded to DVD. If the...

Ah, yes. I did say MeGUI, but most people don't realize the distinction. Post edited. The aspect ratios in MeGUI are not wrong, they just default to DV rather than DVD

Likely that the video with my high speed settings is noisier and sharper. Noise and sharpness do not compress well. It's noisier because some of the settings switched off are blurring and degrain steps within TGMC. It's sharper because MeguIV uses an additional setting on the TGMC line...

Most likely MeguIV will have muxed the full 4 hours of sound together with the couple of minutes of trimmed video. There are a couple of ways to correctly rip in chunks like this - I do it a lot. However, they are very manual processes and would require extensive detailed instructions. I started...

That's because when a process runs at a lower priority, it defers to other running applications. You'll be able to run anything else you like, play a game even - it will just slow down the rip (and probably increase the chance of a crash).

Does that mean if you edit your signature now, then your links will break?

Yes, I have to do this and it's easy to forget things. And you can still get crash problems (see below). Something I should have mentioned in my earlier post is that the avisynth multithreading library has known bugs. A new integrated version has been due for months if not years, but it never...

System stability is an issue with long encodes, and these problems seem to be stability related. I don't know off the top of my head whether that's hot for a Q9550, but I suspect it is. Cut down the OC, or get some better cooling (maybe just try taking the side of the case off).

I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed... Not so tedious: Firefox, right-click image >> Copy Image Location, voilà I doubt it would accept such a username

22fps, nice! I briefly experimented with those speed ups in anticipation of ripping blu-rays at full resolution, current settings will be too slow. Hadn't tried them properly yet, so it's good to hear that they can be so fast. Technical rippers like Rollyco and I tend to be pedantic about...

Getting the little arrow right is the tricky bit. It's done like this:

Given the same settings, a slower computer will produce exactly the same output as a faster one, it just takes longer.

You can get around a 50% speed up [Edit: a lot more as it turns out]. I have updated my MeguIV tips post to include encoding speed-up tips. You'll need to read and follow the instructions carefully, but once you're used to the process it's not hard. Good luck

For a one-off bit of fun you can manually type custom QUOTE tags. Pink is a bit hard to read...

Deinterlacing is just part of the ripping process used for DVDs. This post explains deinterlacing. MeguIV does high quality deinterlacing as part of its operation. Then MeguIV is the ideal tool for you. Just follow the steps in the first post, that's all you need to know

MP4: Yes AVI: No MeguIV is designed to deinterlace DVDs. VCDs aren't interlaced, so it isn't the appropriate tool.

You leech 1Mb (last bit of a file), then seed it back 10x (10MB), so your ratio is 10:1 (up:down). You leech the first 9Mb of the next torrent, you're back to 1:1. Leech another 10Mb, now you're 1:2. Another 80Mb and you're 1:10. Tracker can limit your ratio at any point. Ratio is total Mb...

Need some background to address your question properly Container: A file that contains one or more data files, typically audio or video streams, but also subtitles, chapters etc. Examples of containers are AVI, MP4. MKV, ASF etc. Codec: A compression format used to encode an individual...

Are you trying to make some kind of interactive game using video scenery? The player will have to more-or-less move on rails, as you will be limited by the video shots you have. If the player can move around with any freedom, then how will you handle collision between the player and the...

Not really my area, but these options spring to mind: - Write your own DirectShow filter. Hard - Bink video. Expensive - Flash - Re-evaluate problem

Oh no, I wasn't suggesting you should change anything. :donotwant: I use MeguIV rips as a visual benchmark when I update my scripts - it's good to have a different refined approach to compare against. It's all pretty subjective at this level of detail (without going into PSNR or SSIM measures or...

I thought that at first - it is incorrect. There are two lines in the script, separated, but with no other relevant lines in between: sharp0 = default( sharpness, 0.25+(tr1+tr2)/6.) # strength of sharpening, 0.0 to 1.0, or more if you like sharpness = default(sharpness...

You've missed the second line that refines the parameters: sharpness = default(sharpness, (SLmode==1||SLmode==3) ? sharp0 : 2*sharp0 ) Where sharp0 is the 0.58 already calculated, and SLmode is whether to limit resharpening with a spatial or temporal comparison - default being 2 (temporal). I...

The pel2hr setting is buggy (look how cy3 is initialised) unless its been updated recently. Fixed and tried it anyway - it has little effect as far as I can see. Tried Dehalo_alpha on its own - too strong. FFT3DFilter's dehalo similar. That was when I decided to code my own. Still not satisfied...

No, that script is not part of MeguIV - which is Rollyco's baby. I provided it for interest more than anything - the idea of using additional post-processing to clean up remaining artefacts after TGMC. The instructions you need to add it are in the show/hide blocks in the original post (just...

This seems to be a variant on a known bug in the current uTorrent. On another uTorrent point (maybe explaining lowleg26's problem), the recent versions of uTorrent try to use uTP by default. This is a new transport protocol that is supposed to avoid saturating your connection when you to use...

Lol, I have that same curse... the hours spent flicking between two upscaled vids comparing a few stray pixels here or there... :curse:

You're never going to get a huge upgrade in video quality because you're limited by the quality of your source. You can't expect the encoding process to magic up extra high resolution detail from nowhere. MeguIV already achieves close to the limit that can be done with a DVDISO. Improvements at...

Good point, I feel stupid now :silence:

Strange, because I just used SSE3 for the test rip - I may have just lucked out.

I just did a successful test rip with a vanilla MeguIV 0.05 and TGMC beta2. It's much faster and gives better quality. All you need to add are these plugins: - TempGaussMC_beta2.avsi - mvtools2.dll - VerticalCleaner (only add one of the dlls from this rar file) Where do they go? Find the MeguIV...

Tips for *all* MeguIV users A few different thing you can try once you have got the hang of MeguIV Make a 60fps Rip - Select the "Advanced Config" tab, during the "One Click" process described on the first page of this thread - Press the "Config" button for "Avisynth Profile:" - Delete...

No probs about that misunderstanding. Edge cleaning is new, but it probably is worth noting that the MeguIV presets have been mentioned earlier. The above includes changes to those presets.

Edge Cleaning Post-Processing meguIVit is an addon to meguIV that includes this EdgeClean script. It's the easiest way to install and use EdgeClean. I'll keep this page up to date though. This is an Avisynth script to reduce edge artifacts already present in a video or created during...

My latest rip uses this beta 2 version of TGMC. I've tested it extensively, and can report a marked improvement in the motion compensation, resulting in less "smearing". [BTW. the screencaps were from my initial MeguIV rip, you'll have to get the whole vid to see the new rip] I've also been...

Sent file for analysis. Verified as false positive. Will be removed from Antivir detection in one of the next updates. Sorry for the false alarm. BTW. Thanks for the effort in making this mod. Much used and appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply. To be fair I've noticed no unusual activity (firewall activity / router logs etc.) aside from the detection I noted.

A very recent update for my antivirus (Antivir) detects the backdoor "BDS/Posion.aoxo" in one of the Megu IV files: cvtres.exe. This may not be false positive: this file is supposed to be part of the Microsoft .NET framework, but does not match the same file on other clean machines. It has a...
