Installing

Put the dll in your VS/AVS plugins folder, then also put these libraries:

For 32-bits:

• madVR.ax
• madHcNet32.dll
• mvrSettings32.dll

For 64-bits:

• madVR64.ax
• madHcNet64.dll
• mvrSettings64.dll

Using

There is only one function: VapourSynth: core.madvr.Process(clip: VideoNode, commands: string[], adapter: bool) AviSynth+: madvr_Process(clip: Clip, commands: string[], adapter: bool)

commands is an array of functions to be ran in the madVR filterchain.

The only supported color families are:

• RGB
• YUV
  • 4:2:0
  • 4:2:2
  • 4:4:4

All at integer 8-10-12-16 bits precision.

Legend

• |x|y|z|...| => can be one of x, y, z
• bool => |on|off|
• int[x..y] => integer in range x to y (inclusive)
• float[x..y] => float in range x to y (inclusive)
• x + |..| => union of a common arg and the list

Size functions:

• upscale(newWidth: int[1..10000], newHeight: int[1..10000], algo: kernels + hq_kernels, antiRing: bool, sigmoidal: bool, superRes: |off|1|2|3|4|, superResLinearLight: bool, superResAntiRing: bool)

• upscaleChroma(algo: kernels + hq_kernels + |bilateralOld|bilateralSoft|bilateralSharp|, antiRing: bool, superRes: |off|1|2|3|4|)
