Topic: How do I keep svp from cropping high resolution videos?

Noticed that some of my interpolations have been cutting some pixels off the bottom. 4k goes from 2160 to 2144 height after interpolation.

https://www.svp-team.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=7536

luckily I found this thread before I spent too much time reinstalling and then trying to figure out how to prepad all my 4k content. That setting provided by the developer in that thread fixed the cropping issue for me for 3840 x 2160 videos, but videos of other non-typical resolutions are still getting cropped.

For example, this 1820 x 2496 video is getting cut down to 1816 x 2496. For the first time I noticed that there was a little button that appeared when I tried to transcode it with the tooltip "restore to original frame size". I had never noticed that before, probably because I usually batch transcode and I'm guessing it doesn't appear then. Anyway, when I press that button it changes the value back to the original, but then when i actually start the transcoding, it takes the 4 pixel height off again and transcodes it cropped. This button's functionality appears to be broken, at least on my end.

Is there any setting I can change to force svp to keep the resolution of the video the same? Is there a technical reason why this isn't available or even the default in the program? I'm a beginner hobbyist consumer so I don't know the specifics but as that linked thread said, it has to do with tensor and multiples of certain numbers. Is it just not possible to do tensor interpolation without this issue? It's really hard to find documentation on this, sorry if I missed anything in the wiki about cropping, or if I'm using this product incorrectly.

If it's any help, I am using rife model 4.9 with tensorrt (as i've had the best results so far with 4.9 for 3d blender content. If anyone can point me a guide for which models works best for which content, or general pros and cons, I would love to see it, as the wiki/manual doesn't explain that. I've just been trying with trial and error) Thanks!

Re: How do I keep svp from cropping high resolution videos?

because SVP (and many other renderers/players) expect the video width divisible by 16
any specific reason your source is 1820 in width?

Re: How do I keep svp from cropping high resolution videos?

I didn't make the video, that's the resolution that the animator released it at, I don't know why. I understand that's an edge case, I just wish that it was communicated better in the software that videos with atypical resolutions sometimes can't be interpolated without cropping.
