Ah, yes, didn't take into account multiple platform support at all. Practically ATI is the only one with mature OpenCL drivers at the moment (at least from my testing).

This is expected to improve, though.

Thanks for the info on what you've found to be the current issues.

"it seems clear that we could have cuda and opencl etc on a card, but then you would either have a very expesnive card due to the "money making" situaiton becuase the card makers would know by doing this they woudl lose profit on simply creating each card for each feature. You do rea...

Implementing support for a new GPU platform is not easy and certainly not fast. Please be patient. Really? I find porting CUDA to OpenCL quite trivial... Are you using some CUDA exclusive features extensively which make this difficult? I realize, due to some options available for CUDA memory handli...

That's not possible; wrapper won't help, a plugin rewrite is required to take advantage of GPUs. (technically, it would be possible to write an emulation layer which would translate CPU instructions to GPU instructions, but that would only make things slower) Also, I wouldn't promote GPU acceleratio...

I agree. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any samples of actual results so far, which implies they're not "quite there yet". Interesting tidbit is that PSO can potentionally replace some genetic algorithms, which generally are quite computationally intensive (and I've seen some quite good re...

Particle Swarm Optimization

Just wondering, if you have ever looked into the subject matter? (I've always been interested in different optimization algorithms and their uses) Recent developments: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2008-02/ip-sat020108.php Edit: As there was not a "general discussion" forum separa...

Thank you for the reply. I've had a long session of editing and was forced to seek some solutions to this (got a bit too frustrated about the clickety-click slowness). Found out that some other filters, which have a similar preview window, allow keyboard navigation, so at least we know it is doable ...

Keyboard support in select frame for vdub filter

Hi, One suggestion - please enable keyboard navigation with 'select a frame for analysis' as it is with vdub (i.e. arrows & modifiers, like Alt for 50 frames at a time etc). It is a painful process clicking with a mouse one frame at a time, especially on a long video file to get to a desired pos...

Define frame range for autoprofiling

Hi, First of all, thanks for 2.0 - seems excellent (running now for first analogue capture, ab 12h left still). I would've wished there would've been one particular improvement: define frames for autoprofiling candidate. Many times, we have a flat surface available for example for 20 frames but the ...

Probably because recognizing noise in spectral view for audio is _quite_ different than in video? There's a reason why it is very useful for audio (I've used audition and tried it - very useful). FFT methods are very useful to remove noise in video too. There are some pretty impressive noise filters...

Thank you for your reply! I also got a reply from VideoEnhancer people, and they suspect the problem is that VideoEnhancer has not implemented frameserving yet. I agree, that would render NeatVideo configuration quite impossible. :) They're planning to implement frameserving during April/May, so mig...

VideoEnhancer support

Hi, Tried to use NeatVideo in VideoEnhancer (http://www.thedeemon.com/VideoEnhancer) as it implements MSU Super Video Resolution (http://www.compression.ru/video/super_resolution/super_resolution_en.html) but unfortunately the VDub plugin version was not working so well (not possible to configure, a...

Hi, I would also like to add my vote for native AviSynth version of the plugin. Less the colorspace conversions the better and many avisynth plugins require yv12/yuy2 for processing, often resulting in the script of the form: some processing->convertorgb->neatvideo->convertoyv12/yuy2->more processin...

GPU assisted possible / useful?

Hi, Loving neatvideo, as it made my analogue captures so much easier (used to all filtering in avisynth with plugins, but the need for constant tweaking drove me nuts as I wasn't very good at it :wink:). However, speed improvements would be nice. (filtering 1:40h video at full res takes a day with m...
