attemtping to install onOpenSuse leap 15.6 ,
however, even after installing Python38, svptube2 is not loading /missing;
what could be needed? it is with KDE Plasma;
on Ubuntu 24.04, no such issue; there "Extensions: found svptube 2.2.0.262 ...
17: Settings: loading tube.cfg OK"
Chainik, any news on getting RIFE working for linux or am I just wasting my time asking?

Did you try use in streaming like twitch channels or youtube live channel, not a video?
for me only streamings can run, videos with V+A i can`t run
svp suddenly started to segfault when playing a video (tested with mpv) on arch linux using the latest linux version (4.6.0.263). Im not sure exactly what broke it, but it's possible a qt update or something is no longer compatible with svp. I tested with both gpu acceleration enabled and disabled. Gdb crashes when I try to open the coredump so I cant see the exact dependency (if any) it crashes in.
Edit: it was fixed now in arch when the libmediainfo dependency was updated from 24.12-1 to 24.12-3.
I probably should've posted in this topic from the start, but I'm getting this error on the last step of mpv build on Ubuntu 25.04 (everything before went without a hitch):
user@comp:~/mpv-build$ sudo ./install
Install data not found. Run this command in build directory root.
Can you please add RIFE on SVP for Linux? I think the packages are there, right?
I am already a paying customer.
SVP works great on archlinux. No issues whatsoever.
But the claim is that RIFE makes it better. Does it really?I got 5800x3D and AMD 7900XTX.
Yes Chainik please update linux repos.
I have some futile attempts in getting RIFE working.Before you inspect the logs, I did symlink all the .so files of `vapoursynth-plugin-vsrife-git` and even touched the name to match up SVP's expectation.
Because it is `librife.so` from the libs and NOT `libRIFE.so`
Maybe look at the most recent parts of my log posted.models libfmtconv.so librife.so libsvpflow2.so
libbm3d.so libframeblender.so libRIFE.so
libffms2.so libmvtools.so libsvpflow1.somodels

/opt/svp/rife/models/rife-anime

Hi, guys.
I've managed to run rife on linux, and it's kinda complicated.
Archlinux + rx7900xtx
There are some steps and problems should be solved:
1. Install ncnn of latest version. In Archlinux it is old now in repos (sic!) (20241226-8 and newest is 20250503). You have to rebuild it manually. It is needed for RX7XXX because of https://github.com/styler00dollar/Vapou … /issues/67
2. Install vapoursynth vapoursynth-plugin-rife-ncnn-vulkan
3. create symlink ln -s /usr/lib/vapoursynth/ /opt/svp/rife
4. Linux version of scripts are different from windows. There is no RIFE in them. You will need to extract script dir from windows version and copy into linux /opt/svp/script/ . This will fix rife_model = undefined
5. But after this, generated script will look for svpflow libraries with wrong names. You can do one of the:
a) install aur/vapoursynth-plugin-svpflow , which extract libraries to the vapoursynth autoimport dir;
b) create symlinks in /opt/svp/plugins/
ln -s libsvpflow1.so libsvpflow1_vs64.so
ln -s libsvpflow2.so libsvpflow2_vs64.so
c) edit generate.js for libraries names
6. Linux version of the library svpflow2 function SmoothFps_RIFE is different.
So you should replace in /opt/svp/script/base.py
core.svp2.SmoothFps_RIFE(input_m,smoothfps_params,rife_out=smooth,vec_src=vec_src,vdata=vdata,src=input_um,fps=src_fps)
with
core.svp2.SmoothFps_RIFE(smooth,smoothfps_params,src=input_um,multi=rife_num/rife_den,fps=src_fps)
Optionally, if you get into main rife function ( core.rife.RIFE https://github.com/styler00dollar/Vapou … cnn-Vulkan ), you can enable some options, but I swear you NOT TO ENABLE
skip: Skip interpolating static frames. Requires VMAF plugin.
Because of broken VMAF https://github.com/styler00dollar/Vapou … /issues/10 . It costs me some hours and nerves trying to find why rewind and fast forward not working.
...Someday, I'll publish complete guide for this....

It shocked me too. And it's not even working, without any error in logs. Just closes after the license window.

if you're happy with the free version - just don't update...
>> New version coredumps upon trying to activate against the chinese server

Thanks, can confirm here. Does that mean the new version (even with license) can only be started on machines with internet connection? As my connection is flaky here at times, that would mean I can not realistically go for the new version.

Thanks, that's true, but an announcement would have been very helpful.
Can the old version still be downloaded for those who require it to work offline / don't want to update?
> Does that mean the new version (even with license) can only be started on machines with internet connection?
not "started" but "activated"

hello, i'm trying to use SVP4 Pro in bazzite
after activating there is nothing happens, and when reopened again it's back to the activation form, tried to clear all the *.cfg including *.lic didn't work
