Looking for help on disabling SVP Frame Smoothing

[1Phase1]

I'm looking for some clarification on disabling SVP Frame Smoothing. I looked through the mpv.conf file and commented out line 175, labelled above as "SVP Frame Rate Conversion Optimized for 48 FPS". Is that all I have to do to turn off the frame smoothing feature? I noticed a few other settings were labelled as being tuned specifically for SVP. Do I have to modify those or can I just leave them as is after commenting out line 175?

That is just the description for it. The line right below it, the one starting with "vf=", is the one you want to delete or comment with a # at the start. It should look like this:

# SVP Frame Rate Conversion Optimized for 48 FPS
# vf=@SVP:vapoursynth="~~/svp_main.vpy":buffered-frames=8:concurrent-frames=8

If you don't want to use it at all replace it with this line:

# Temporal + Spatial Denoising Filter (reduces banding) 
vf=@HQDN3D:lavfi=[hqdn3d=luma_spatial=3:chroma_spatial=2:luma_tmp=5]

This is something I've been working on these past few days, and that will reduce the banding significantly. It's very light, it shouldn't affect performance. I'm going to release a new update soon that will have some great improvements.

Let me know if you have any other issues I can help you with!

Yes, it was the line itself that I commented out, not the description, I was just pointing out that I commented out the line that had that description above it.

Thanks a lot for the denoising filter, I'll be sure to use it. :)

Ah you're right, my bad, I didn't read it correctly. All other settings shouldn't affect you much, you can leave them as they are. I will make sure to include a few variations of the mpv.conf file, with different features disabled, starting with the next release.

How do you like it so far?

I actually held off on trying the program until I was sure I had the settings configured correctly. I just gave it a try and... my God. This is insane. I saw the comparison picture on the reddit post you made, but actually seeing it in action is an entirely different experience. I can't believe what I'm seeing right now, lol.

But if you meant how do I like the denoising filter, I'll need to turn it off and compare since I never actually tried the program without it. Overall though, everything looks perfect.

Do you accept donations?

Edit: oh, I didn't notice you had a Ko-fi link included at the bottom of the readme. I'll use that :)

Glad you like it! 🤩 I meant about it overall, not just the denoise filter, but that does makes a big difference on my TV.

Stay tuned, I'm close to finishing something really nice, and hopefully I'll make a new release by Sunday, if all goes well.

And thanks for your donation, I think you are the first one! ❤️

Latest release let's you disable SVP and any other feature you don't want. Let me know if it solves your problem.

Yes! I noticed the new first time setup options include the ability to modify the features. Thank you so much for adding that! :D
