This release is the conclusion of a lot of hard work and I hope it will help making SSIMULACRA2 and Butteraugli more accessible.
-
This update introduces the first version of FFVship ! Getting rid of bottlenecks rising from using vapoursynth, it is able to compute SSIMU2 much faster. Also, being Vapoursynth free, it is attractive for people unwilling to installing this massive dependency. Scores are little different but it is normal and will see potential improvments later. It also is for now only able to open videos, not images.
-
/!\ Change that can impact your existing workflow: Default Intensity target in butteraugli is now 203. If you wish to go back to 80, you can set by yourself the option to 80.
-
SSIMULACRA2 got a VRAM reduction update that also made it faster, you can expect about 1/3 VRAM usage compared to before. It also got debugged to work with huge images tested with up to 400 MégaPixels!
Upcoming changes for future releases are image support for FFVship and color conversion done entirely on GPU.
Thank you for your continuous support <3
I wish you a nice 🧈 cooking session.
