[HELP] No Preview / Hybrid not responding

[Miranda]

Debug file attached.

[Selur]

Debug output shows no errors.
Seeing the input I suspect the problem is that afaik there is no source filter for Vapoursynth which supports .mxf files.

[Selur]

Nope that's not it. Tested a few mxf files I had here and they worked fine.
-> Would need a sample and details what you did exactly to reproduce the issue.

The first time I processed the file with QTGMC de-interlacing and it worked fine. 

Can you identify the filter that is not compatible with .MXF files?

---

Converting to ProRes 422HQ before processing via Hybrid.

[Selur]

That is why I need a sample and specific steps what you do, since I can't reproduce the issue here.

Here are a few thing that seem strange:

• The the first 3370947 lines in the debug output contains the processing of another file.
  
• Looking at the debug output I also see huge delays for audio&video
  "Delay : 9 h 57 min 7 s 360 ms"
  
• I see tons of errors that Hybrid can't find temporary created Vapoursynth scripts:
  "S:\Ghostwatch\Ghostwatch-Temp\tempPreviewVapoursynthFile12_11_11_706.vpy"
  no clue why that would happen unless some anti virus tool or similar is interfering.
  Later in the script it seems to work.
  

-> no clue what you did there, but the current debug output is useless. (unless I would spend hours reading it, which is not happening)

It looks like it's the HQDering filter with interlaced/upscaled video. As soon as I select it, Hybrid stops responding.

[Selur]

I started Hybrid, oepend an interlaced source, enabled HQDering, opened the Vapoursynth Preview.

-> no issues
=> can't reproduce it, so I can't fix it.

Going to bed now, since there are no details which allow me to reproduce the issue.

I'm also upscaling to 1080i, with no deinterlacing. I'll send a sample clip tomorrow.

[Selur]

Also write a step-by-step of what you do and I can try to reproduce it tomorrow.
Click orders are important.

I'm trying to upscale to 1080i, so I have disabled de-interlacing. When I start the job, it aborts and says encoding is set for progressive out, but the input is not progressive. Where do I set the encoder for interlaced in and out?
