Deoldify Vapoursynth filter

[Dan64]

I don't understand what was gone in custom mode, and what was changed recently for you.

As wrote previously custom mode was working with the only exception of method = 5.

Regarding the method = 5, I can apply a merge only if the reference frames are the same as video. If they are different, the merge is still possible but the result will be very bad. 
So I need to know when the reference frames are the same as video also for the method = 5.
To do that are available 2 options:

1) extended the list of exemplar-based methods in:

0 = HAVC same as video (default)
1 = HAVC + RF same as video
2 = HAVC + RF different from video
3 = external RF same as video
4 = external RF different from video
5 = HAVC restore same as video
6 = HAVC restore different from video

2) It also possible to simplify the list in:

0 = HAVC simple
1 = HAVC + external RF
2 = external RF only
3 = HAVC video restore

and to add a check box in the GUI, near ref_merge, with the name "RF same as video" (you could replace in GUI sc_debug that is not used) to let me know if the ref_merge can be applied.

Please let me know what of 2 options do you prefer.

Regarding your question: HAVC_ddeoldify is always assigned to clipRef when deepEx is used
The answer is: when is enabled the check box "Exemplar Models" and method in: 

0 = HAVC same as video (default)
1 = HAVC + RF same as video
2 = HAVC + RF different from video
