Topic: SVP test movie?

Hi,

I spent hours, days , weeks in order to try to get an acceptable compromis between smoothness and artifacts and finally came to the conclusion that I probably will never succeed unless I have some reference to compare between settings.

So my question is, are there any test movies/clips that I can use to finetune SVP4 settings to my taste?

Thanks!

Ronald

Take any FullHD clip with 30 fps (29.97 fps) and see it with SVP at 60 Hz monitor. You can activate demo mode to conpare picture smoothness (SVP tray menu - Utilities - Demonstration mode)
You can download any clip with "1080/29.97p" mark from page 2D Demo Trailers (HD)

What's wrong with using 30.00fps content?

Not wrong, 30 fps content is good enough to watch at 60 Hz display to get maximum smoothness with minimum visibility of motion arteacts because of 2x smooth factor.

I meant 30fps vs 29.97fps...

I 30fps is evenly divisible, but I doubt anybody can tell the difference between .03 fps.

I just kind of crank smoothness and shader to uniform and complex, then try to match the settings I used on SVP 3 auto, on the highest level. For what I watch, I don't get many articles. On the topic, I find anything with fluid continuous motion would be good, like dancing Justin Bieber's Sorry dance video is a good example. Anything too fast or too many cutscenes is always going to be tough,you're inserting fake frames after all.

Film is rarely in 30fps that's all.

A good amount of recordings of already digital content are in flat 30fps (screen recordings and videos games come to mind).

Regardless, my whole point was that it made it sound like you needed a 29.97fps video or that all 30fps videos were actually 29.97fps.

Re: SVP test movie?

Why 30fps? Most movies are shot in 24fps.

You can try this.
It's an anime video.

Because standard 60Hz refreshrate don't devide on 24 fps.
To get minimum artifacts you need integer multiplier: 30x2=60.
In case of 24fps you need custom refreshrate: 48Hz, 72Hz and so on.

DXVA doesn't support H.264 High 10 Profile.(10bit-depth)

Re: SVP test movie?

Oh! Sorry. Of course, 10 bit depth!

Thanks. You are right!
