New dev rife build will also reduce lag on rewind to zero

Nice, can't wait for an update. It feels like I'm watching content in a completely new way now with RIFE.

Doubt we'll see it, but if performance improves to allow me to push 3x the framerate with my RTX 3090 that would be amazing.

Still don't know why Dolby Vision flickers with SVP on, and with RIFE the colours also wash out and blacks become dark grey, here is my current configuration:

Rife kinda killed it (for video interpolation)

I haven't tried it in over a month. If the issue is fixed where it takes so long to open a 4K file, then I would use it without hesitation.

But the loading issues always put me off.

EDIT:

OKAY WOW THE DIFFERENCE IS MASSIVE!

Even at double the FPS (48FPS) it looks better than anything else at 120FPS.

It is worth the loading time and seek loading time when forwarding and moving back. Artifacts are minimal too. And now I wish my RTX 3090 could push 3x or 4x the framerate haha!

Hi Devs,

I already eliminated all other factors outside of SVP, this issue only happens when SVP is on, and when I exit, the problem goes away. Also, the bright flashing / flickering only happens with Dolby Vision + SVP

HDR 10 works fine, SDR works fine. They are lower bitrate and produce worse colours than Dolby Vision.

I tried to find the best example of this for easy testing and troubleshooting:

The.Mandalorian.S03E04.DV.2160p.WEB.h265-MAVIS (https://rarbg.to/torrent/2k1y9us)

1 minute between 16:25 to 17:25

Testing on LG C2 OLED as a PC monitor.

Also, before anyone asks, I do have a Disney+ Subscription as well as many other subscriptions, and I pay $100+ per month for them.

I just prefer to watch on PC, using MPV + Shaders + SVP

Hi Devs,

This year it seems nVidia pushed 5.x.x versions of optical flow and looking at the release notes I think there might be some new values to play around with? But they aren't available in SVP yet.

Right now, the only values we can change are:

nvof
nvof_grid
nvof_quality

I already check and motion vector grid seems to work with 3 now as well, instead of 4 before being the limit.

Not sure if more options have been added to experiment with and add? And if there are other value updates too.

I am more than happy to beta test with content if there's extra stuff.

RTX 3090 when I change the engine to NVIDIA TensorRT and open a video, it opens a command prompt and it keeps loading... Do I just have to wait? Or? I thought it would be faster than Vulkan which plays instantly but can only do 1080p for me, and was hoping to try nVidia TensorRT.

What am I doing wrong? So is it just that I have to wait and let it do its thing? How long do I wait for it?

I'm upgrading from an RTX 2070 Super to an RTX 3090 (arriving in a week). Can I use RIFE for 4K content on a 60Hz 4K TV with an RTX 3090? Looking forward to finally trying out RIFE and hopefully even more optimisations in the future too. Kudos to the devs and everyone involved, I've supported SVP since the early days and to now it is one of my most used programs <3

2022 December - Fullscreen Exclusive mode is no longer working in Windows 11 (Beta)

fullscreen=yes
ontop

If anyone knows of a workaround, please advise.

Easiest way to test, is if you have a keyboard with a volume knob. Increase and decrease the Windows Volume, and the volume bar overlay from windows can be seen on top of the player.

When the player runs in true Fullscreen Exclusive mode, the volume bar is hidden and cannot be seen (as only the player is being rendered).

That extra level of smoothness that comes with exclusive full-screen is gone. Not sure when this change happened with Windows. But as of right now I cannot find a solution.

Disabling Fullscreen Optimizations for MPV and via registry did not help either.

I switched away from madVR and MPC years ago now. Would love an update to cropping speed detection too, but I always just disable cropping with movies/shows that keep alternating between different aspect ratios. And only enable it for static ones.

In case you're interested in my MPV configuration, which I am aware many use; here is an updated version since I haven't posted in a while (scroll to see all):

The shaders need to be downloaded separately.

MPV or MPC?

What refresh rate is your monitor and what FPS are you running? You should try to match them for fluidity.

Could be one of few reasons:

1. SVP not actually being applied.
2. Frame drops (SVP Index not stable --> Weak hardware or settings cranked too high).
3. You have strongest artifact masking, or other weird settings maybe interfering?

Other reasons maybe. We need more details to determine the issue.

Depends what you want, some people want maximum smoothness. Others like me want smoothness but also focus heavily on decreasing artifacts as much as possible because artifacts cause a lot of distractions, so it won't be like smoothing focused settings.

From my understanding on discussions of this in the past.

NVOF is driver & hardware controlled.

NVOF 3.0 is exclusive to nVidia 3000 series GPU's.

nVidia 2000 series GPU's are limited to 2.x

This is from nVidia's side. Not SVP.

If 4000 series come out tomorrow with NVOF 4.0, they would work with SVP with NVOF 4.0

And I wouldn't be surprised if nVidia makes the next NVOF exclusive to the next line of GPUs

On the latest Build 22593.1 which has been out for a couple of weeks now and will stick on beta and will likely come out H2 2022 as a stable build. The issue linked below happens.

Image #1 --> This is with SVP Pro Tray Icon hidden, both show correctly.

Image #2 --> How it looks like after removing it from hide (first time), which is how it SHOULD look like every time I launch the app.

Image #3 --> How it actually looks like every time after that I exit and launch the app. The SVP icon does not show, only the SVPTube icon shows up.

https://imgur.com/a/sf3IeVU

Only ways to fix it, is it to disable and enable it.

Or always leave it in the hidden ARROW menu (in image 1, will always show correctly). Which is what I have been doing.

I reported the issue in the feedback to Microsoft for the insider builds.

But maybe it can also be solved on your end?

EDIT: Also PS: update MPV to v0.34.1 has been out since January tongue

=== RIFE / PyTorch installation ===

0. Update SVP to the latest version

1. Dependencies installation:
--------------
download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py into SVP 4\mpv64

run cmd as Administrator
cd SVP 4\mpv64

run

python get-pip.py

run

python -m pip install torch --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu113
python -m pip install vsrife

will download 3+ GB and unpack it into 6+ GB of data big_smile

2. SVP modification
---------------
replace SVP 4\script\base.py and SVP 4\script\generate.js, restart SVP

add custom profile option: go to Application settings -> User defined options, fill in:
- Title: RIFE via CUDA
- Script name: rife_cuda
- Options scope: FRC profile
- Allowed values: ON or OFF
Press "Add option"

in the "RIFE AI engine" video profile set "RIFE via CUDA" to ON
when it's ON then "AI model" and "GPU threads" change nothing

Nice! Is it possible to now run RIFE at real time on a RTX 2070 Super & 5800X CPU?

I remember it was impossible in the past, but maybe with these versions it is?

PS: If I do, most content I watch is Bluray Remux 4K HDR & SDR content. So it will be very demanding, but has v4 of RIFE improved so much that it can now work real time with a 2070 Super?

see if something changed; try different values below 1.0 - 0.8; 0.9.

No errors in the log, tried the change you recommended but same thing. Massive frame drops, even though GPU and CPU usage is low, and SVP index is ~1.0

I use 2070 Super, not even RTX 3000 series.

Check picture below (1 is dropped frames, 2 is GPU usage, 3 is svp index):

Yes, I can confirm my testing is all in 4K (2160p) these days. I do not consume any 1080p or 720p content anymore.

RTX 2070 Super for me, with a 5800X CPU.
