Hello!

When I enter Limit Cache and press Enter, it is blocked and cannot be changed in any way

I also noticed that lookahead slices don't seem to work, nothing changes with different values

Can't reproduce that, fixed it a while ago, should be fine in latest dev.

I installed the latest dev version, and there really is no such problem there. But now Hybrid doesn't want to encode video at all, no matter what I do, any codecs without using filters.

Debug File:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/55mT/XEh2Jw4Br

Accoding to the debug output, Hybrid calls:

Code:
"C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\Vapoursynth\vspipe.exe" "C:\Users\DSIOMNAINC\AppData\Local\Temp\encodingTempSynthSkript_2025-09-13@18_22_54_8410_0.vpy" - --outputindex 0 -c y4m | "C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\x264.exe" --preset fast --pass 1 --bitrate 1500 --profile high --level 5.1 --ref 1 --direct auto --b-adapt 0 --rc-lookahead 40 --sync-lookahead 48 --qcomp 0.50 --qpmax 51 --partitions none --no-8x8dct --me dia --subme 2 --trellis 0 --aq-mode 0 --sar 1:1 --non-deterministic --range tv --stats "C:\Users\DSIOMNAINC\AppData\Local\Temp\675675_1_2025-09-13@18_22_54_8410_02.stats" --demuxer y4m --input-range tv --fps 6147/250 --output-depth 8 --output NUL -

and then with "Main call started,.." the log ends,...

The used Vapoursynth script:

Code:
# Imports

import vapoursynth as vs

# getting Vapoursynth core

import sys

import os

core = vs.core

# Import scripts folder

scriptPath = 'C:/Program Files/Hybrid/64bit/vsscripts'

sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath(scriptPath))

# loading plugins

core.std.LoadPlugin(path="C:/Program Files/Hybrid/64bit/vsfilters/SourceFilter/LSmashSource/LSMASHSource.dll")

# Import scripts

import validate

# Source: 'C:\Users\DSIOMNAINC\Desktop\01\1\03_prefilter_replace.mkv'

# Current color space: YUV420P10, bit depth: 10, resolution: 720x480, frame rate: 24.588fps, scanorder: progressive, yuv luminance scale: limited, matrix: 470bg, transfer: bt.601, primaries: bt.470 system m, format: FFV1

# Loading C:\Users\DSIOMNAINC\Desktop\01\1\03_prefilter_replace.mkv using LWLibavSource

clip = core.lsmas.LWLibavSource(source="C:/Users/DSIOMNAINC/Desktop/01/1/03_prefilter_replace.mkv", format="YUV420P10", stream_index=0, cache=0, prefer_hw=0)

frame = clip.get_frame(0)

# setting color matrix to 470bg.

clip = core.std.SetFrameProps(clip, _Matrix=vs.MATRIX_BT470_BG)

# setting color transfer (vs.TRANSFER_BT601), if it is not set.

if validate.transferIsInvalid(clip):

  clip = core.std.SetFrameProps(clip=clip, _Transfer=vs.TRANSFER_BT601)

# setting color primaries info (to vs.PRIMARIES_BT470_BG), if it is not set.

if validate.primariesIsInvalid(clip):

  clip = core.std.SetFrameProps(clip=clip, _Primaries=vs.PRIMARIES_BT470_BG)

# setting color range to TV (limited) range.

clip = core.std.SetFrameProps(clip=clip, _ColorRange=vs.RANGE_LIMITED)

# making sure frame rate is set to 24.588fps

clip = core.std.AssumeFPS(clip=clip, fpsnum=6147, fpsden=250)

# making sure the detected scan type is set (detected: progressive)

clip = core.std.SetFrameProps(clip=clip, _FieldBased=vs.FIELD_PROGRESSIVE) # progressive

# adjusting output color from: YUV420P10 to YUV420P8 for x264Model

clip = core.resize.Bicubic(clip=clip, format=vs.YUV420P8, dither_type="error_diffusion")

# set output frame rate to 24.588fps (progressive)

clip = core.std.AssumeFPS(clip=clip, fpsnum=6147, fpsden=250)

# output

clip.set_output()

Looks fine to me. (Ignoring the frame rate of the input)
Normally it should take a bit for the encoding to start, since LWLibavSource will need a bit to open and index the source, but it should work fine.
Can't reproduce the problem.

Does the Vapoursynth Preview work?

No But there are no errors, it just doesn't respond. I tried to install the dev version again and rebooted the computer

Did you deinstall the old version before installing the dev?
Does the taskmgr show vspipe and x264?
Does it change anything if you move the temp folder outside of Windows? (so not under C:\Users\... or similar)

Quote:No But there are no errors, it just doesn't respond.

Then something is wrong with the Vapoursynth environment or the source causes the source filter to freeze,...

If your source is really large, indexing will take a while,...

No, don't deinstall, i have VSpipe, but no x264

I got CRASH, debug file:

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/TvFo/GaNqoxnq3

now x264 aborts with:

Quote:y4m [error]: bad sequence header magic

this indicates that something is wrong with the Vapoursynth script

1. deinstall Hybrid
2. install dev version
3. clear your temp folder
4. when the Vapousynth preview does not work, usually neither will the encoding.
