New RIFE filter - 3x faster AI interpolation possible in SVP!!! (Page 41 of 84)

how exactly "a library that leverages NVIDIA RTX architecture for accelerating large language models (LLMs)" is connected with us?

Guys, I am so confused. Everything seems to be so complex. I have been reading this thread for hours now...

I am running SVP via RIFE and MPV. SVP CPL shows it is using RIFE v 4.4.

How do I update to the latest version of RIFE for live conversion?

A simple list of instructions would be wonderful, thank you

First you update SVP to latest version by right clicking it from task bar --> Utilities --> Additional programs and features... --> Update components --> Next >

If you're equipped with an Nvidia Graphics GPU, amplify your interpolation speed by installing TensorRT. Check out the SVP default guide for a smooth installation process:
https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/RIFE_AI_interpolation

Dive deeper into the videos enhancement journey. If the latest stable version doesn't quite satisfy your expectations, explore the cutting-edge experimental versions with the latest improvements. You can always revert to older models if needed.
Download latest RIFE from the bottom of the page here:
https://github.com/AmusementClub/vs-mlr … nal-models
But the fastest model seems to be rife_v4.6.onnx from rife_v2 folder of rife_v2_v4.7z :
https://github.com/AmusementClub/vs-mlr … e_v2_v4.7z
The current RIFE model version number recommended by it's developer is mentioned here:
https://github.com/hzwer/Practical-RIFE … erpolation

Then copy the contents of the rife folder from the archive into this SVP folder ("C:\Program Files (x86)\SVP 4\rife\models\rife")
and copy the contents of the rife_v2 folder from the archive into this SVP folder ("C:\Program Files (x86)\SVP 4\rife\models\rife_v2"):

How the files should look if copied correctly:

Restart SVP to see the newly added models.

How to upgrade TensorRT:
Go to https://github.com/AmusementClub/vs-mlrt/releases/ and download latest vsmlrt-windows-x64-tensorrt archive.

Now, with a seamlessly upgraded RIFE AI model, enjoy the next level of videos interpolation.
Happy watching!

List of SVP4 SETTINGS you can change to improve RIFE FPS for a smooth experience even on low end PC:
Use SVP's MPV video player instead of MPC-HC video player by installing it from SVP icon tray right click --> Utilities --> Additional programs and features... --> Add or remove components
Turn off Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling:
https://www.howtogeek.com/756935/how-to … indows-11/
Turn off GPU decoder in player:
If you're using SVP's MPC-HC you go to View->Options->Internal Filters->Video decoder->Hardware Acceleration->None
https://gyazo.com/93b27111fe9a43f1f6e0a49f46435e14
Also go to Options->Playback->Output->MPC Video Renderer Settings and uncheck "Adjust the frame presentation time" so your frame rate can go above 160 fps:
https://gyazo.com/ebfa6f747d2e0fc3d3f03c64bb3c9468
if you're using SVP's MPV then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\SVP 4\mpv64 and edit the file mpv.conf and edit this line:
hwdec=auto-copy change to #hwdec=auto-copy. Just remove the "#" if you want to use it again.
Go to Windows Power & Battery settings and change Power mode from Balanced to Best Performance:
https://gyazo.com/7666c5fbe11d421020f7a38ed04fe425

Enable Performance Boost for Nvidia TensorRT so the video starts faster:

Also make sure you set GPU Threads to 2 for a stable FPS!!!
Setting it to 1 GPU Thread will give it too less memory to work with. Setting it to 3+ will make it drop frames more, without any noticeable improvements.
Duplicate frames removal setting we want it on "Do not remove".

For the Soap Opera effect increase Scene change threshold to 100% (rife_sc in SVP Application settings) so it will always interpolate the source frames and never repeat them:
Example: https://gyazo.com/f969dd0efaf116e91713f8d2ecdfbb45

Add resize SVP Application parameter with a small resolution for SVP to downscale the video before interpolating without overwhelming your GPU if you want to play 4K resolution videos:
Possible values:
-1 (your current screen size)
-25601440 (2560x1440 pixels for 2K)
-19201080 (1920x1080 pixels for 1080p)
-12800720 (1280x720 pixels for 720p)
-10240576 (1024x576 pixels for 576p)
-08540480 (854x480 pixels for 480p)
Example: https://gyazo.com/cdd546a9c5e2efafaf9dd6d671fe00a8 and enable "Stretch to Window" in MPC-HC so you can see the resized video on whole screen https://gyazo.com/4e8b2532e2bd1cd9868f9d03e74dc2b6

To accurately measure your current frames per second (FPS), you should install NVIDIA App from here:
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/software/nvidia-app/
And enable Statistics in the NVIDIA Overlay:

BONUS:
In my experiments, I found that while MPC-HC struggles, MPV seamlessly drops frames and continues.
Additionally, aloola's analysis suggests that newer models demand more from your system, yet they offer substantial enhancements in interpolation. MPV supports the addition of shaders which can significantly improve image quality and sharpness. A clever workaround involves resizing a 4K image to 1080p for swift interpolation with RIFE on newer models, and then applying shaders to emulate the appearance of the original 4K quality.
Although the result won't exactly match the original source, it ensures a smooth viewing experience. Moreover, your GPU will handle it effortlessly, as upscaling is far less resource-intensive than interpolating a 4K HDR10 image.
Feel free to experiment with these techniques yourself:

Everything needed is already on this SVP manuals page https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/RIFE_AI_interpolation The extra stuff you've seen some of us doing here is interesting but not necessary for Rife. Especially since the SVP devs recently created a script that does most of the extra stuff for you.

The instructions you need are as follows:
1. Download and install SVP.
2. Follow the Rife AI manuals page.
3. Restart SVP.
4. Don't worry about the experimental stuff myself and others are doing because for most it's more likely to break your install than help it.

Very little difference. So try both and let us know what you think.

After trying 4.9 VS 4.12 Lite at least on performance aspect I can't see any difference at 4K on RTX4090 & i9 11900K. Same usage  & power draw on both.

Will this driver scheduled for later today promising 5x the performance increase for TensorRT-LLM for 3000 and 4000 series GPU's have an impact on us using RIFE? I assume no.

Or will this improve performance for us? Or maybe something that needs a RIFE update to utilise version 0.6.0 benefits? Not sure. Just asking.

https://wccftech.com/nvidia-brings-up-t … x-30-gpus/

Yep, thanks. As suspected. It won't be connected to SVP or RIFE performance lift.

Yeah I saw it earlier but I didn't bother to update because after testing it doesn't seem to be any different from 4.12lite or v9. I will wait for a full v4.13 or maybe 4.14 before commenting on here.

Sometimes the encoder source could cause problems too so maybe try to find the same anime from another encoder.

For anime with a lot of hardcoded subtitles, try a model >= 4.10, even 4.12_lite is much better than 4.9.
