thoughtfuldev / anime4k Goto Github PK

heyo,

Thank you for making this. You did the world a great service :D

The readme.md is missing some information in the "Installing / Getting started" section. One also needs to install libmediainfo-devand mkvtoolnix, e.g. on ubuntu: sudo apt install libmediainfo-dev mkvtoolnix

on a side note: some instructions on how to do upscaling by a definied ratio (e.g. times two) or how to upscale while keeping aspect-ration would be nice to have, especially since older shows tend to have different aspect ratios than 1080p et al. So simply upscaling to 3840 x 2160 will (probably?) introduce distortion

For now I just use ffprobe, and then calculated the height and width manually, but the command for ffprobe is a bit clunky, so having an option for it, would be very convinient. The command looks something like this: fprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=width,height -of csv=s=x:p=0 \[Reaktor\]\ GTO\ -\ Great\ Teacher\ Onizuka\ -\ E02\ \[576p\]\[x265\]\[10-bit\].mkv

Hi, even if in the requirements list there is "A dedicated GPU (no VM) [AMD/NVIDIA/Intel]" I need it also when I use only cpu encoding?
I get these errors:
[gpu] Could not initialize EGL.
[gpu] Could not create offscreen ra context.
[user_filter_wrapper] Creating filter 'gpu' failed.
[vo/lavc] error encoding at EOF
Video: no video
No video or audio streams selected.

[encode] no data written to target file

I'm launching commands in ubuntu shell on windows.

I've seen const.py for updating shaders names, but since there is the new shaders version 4.0.1 how can I implement them?

running (cpu):
python3 Anime4K.py -m shader --shader_dir "./shaders" --width 3840 --height 2160 -i input.mkv --output x264_upscale.mkv

results in:

I made anime4KCPP build on macOS. Check it out, it might be faster than this. I personally decided to use less intensive shaders which my laptop could support running in realtime. Also, I noticed just using the sharpeners without upscaling was good enough for some videos without being as intensive.
