[GUIDE] VapourSynth + QTGMC Deinterlace + Hybrid UI FAQ for macOS

VapourSynth + Plugins + Scripts + Hybrid [2020.09.18]

Changes:
- Updated VapourSynth-R52 installer
- Updated ogg, opus and libraries inside Hybrid.
- Removed waste plugins not used in Hybrid.
- Simplified installation. No need to copy "Scripts" folder because Hybrid use internal scripts folder.
- Updated FAQ
- Also i add VapourSynth plugins list used by Hybrid to first post.

Hybrid 2020.09.15 still have few not too critical bugs described in FAQ, but in newer versions it is impossible to resize UI window and no more "disableIcons=true" option. It feels like huge step back in usability, so i will keep in package "unofficial" Hybrid 2020.09.15 and only may update some internal components in future if available.

Just a small bugfix update info for this version:

Problem: Filtering -> VapourSynth -> Color: Levels and Limiter works incorrectly because due mistake in script they use YUV input instead of RGB. Also some UI controls in these filters adjusted incorrectly yet.
Problem fix: Levels and Limiter will work correctly if you apply dummy empty "identify.cube" LUT in TimeCube filter. TimeCube filter outputs RGB and provides proper RGB input for Levels and Limiter. Also you need to use only "Planes: all".

Further illustration of this problem here: https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p...ost1923597

Levels in/out min/max also works correctly only with RGB input. For example default untouched in/out 16-235 video setting and Gamma 0.20 is equal to Gamma -1.00 in DaVinci Resolve. No problem here.


Just for further understanding: VapourSynth Levels filter works similar to any Levels color correction tool in any graphic editor. Here is illustration of Levels filter in Photoshop:

lame, sox, faac, flac

I assume you tested these,..? Because I did not.

[shijan]

I rendered different videos with opus, ogg, mp3, aac, flac and wav audio tracks and all worked. Is there any other ways to test it further?
FAAC checkbox don't works due some mistakes in commands as you explained here https://forum.selur.net/showthread.php?t...03#pid9303 so for aac encoding always used FFmpeg.

[Selur]

nope if you checked normal encoding that should be fine,..
btw. if you package the wip versions I build for testing into releases you should also update at least tsMuxeR and ffmpeg,....

[shijan]

Should i put inside Hybrid ffmpeg 4.3.1 or use versions that look like 99346-g003b5c800f?
tsMuxeR from this list? https://bintray.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/ts...htly#files Or use tsMuxeR 2.6.11?

[Selur]

tsMuxeR: latest nightly should be fine
ffmpeg: latest from https://evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/ should be fine

Cu Selur

[shijan]

So use FFmpeg 4.3.1 or use versions that look like 99346-g003b5c800f ? I always thought that versions with long numbers are sort of beta versions for developers, and so i used only those with basic version numbers like like 4.3.1

The one with the git revision code should be the latest, to be sure you can UTC compile dates that tessus usually writes below the download links,...
