Hello everyone.
I want to de-interlace some files of digitized VHS tapes using the famous QTGMC algorithm and i installed Hybrid for that,
but I am running some problems that i have no idea what to do to fix.
The files are:
.mpg (mpeg-2, made using a simple software called LightCapture that came with my USB adapter)
.AVI (made using VirtualDub with the HuffUV codec).
The problem i am running now is that I can not generate previews in the "filtering" tab.
The flow is:
First, I insert the path of the .mpg and .avi files in the "BASE" tab.
Then i click the preview icon (the icon with a play button and an eye inside a film strip) in this tab,
and the video plays without problems.
In the Crop/Resize tab, also, the video plays OK, no problems so far.
But in the Filtering tab i can not generate any previews, for different reasons for .mpg and .avi.
[.avi case]
I click the icon and, for the first time i click I can see the mouse showing like it is loading something,
but nothing happens. The subsequent clicks do nothing at all. NADA.
It is like i clicked nothing.
[.mpg case]
The first time i click the button shows, in the program header
some percentage followed by - (DGindex), like "16.00% - (DGindex)"
By program header, i mean the bar that usually shows "Hybrid 2025.11.09.1"
and the icons - □ X , to minimize, maximize and close the windows.
But after that i get an error message. I uploaded a photo here to show the error.
DGindex happens only once, from now on i get only the error message.
What can i do to fix both AVI and MPG?
Sorry if i am doing something really stupid.
I just wanted to start testing several configurations and i can not even get started...
From second 1 i am already getting those problems and it is really frustrating...
Thanks in advance.
