MaskTools 2

Masktools2 v2.2.1 (20170218)
mod by pinterf

Differences to Masktools 2.0b1

  • project moved to Visual Studio 2015 Update 3
    Requires VS2015 Update 3 redistributables
  • Fix: mt_merge (and probably other multi-clip filters) may result in corrupted results
    under specific circumstances, due to using video frame pointers which were already released from memory
  • no special function names for high bit depth filters
  • Avisynth+ high bit depth support (incl. planar RGB, but color spaces with alpha plane are not yet supported)
    For accepted bit depth, see table below.
  • YV411 (8 bit 4:1:1) support
  • mt_merge accepts 4:2:2 clips when luma=true (8-16 bit)
  • mt_merge accepts 4:1:1 clips when luma=true
  • mt_merge to discard U and V automatically when input is greyscale
  • new: mt_lutxyza. Accepts four clips. 4th variable name is 'a' (besides x, y and z)
  • expression syntax
    • new: bit-depth aware scale operators
      operator #B scales from 8 bit to current bit depth using bit-shifts
      Use this for YUV. "235 #B" -> always results in max luma
      operator #F scales from 8 bit to current bit depth using full range stretch
      "255 #F" results in maximum pixel value of current bit depth.
      Calculation: x/255*65535 for a 8->16 bit sample (rgb)

    • new pre-defined, bit depth aware constants
      bitdepth: automatic silent parameter of the lut expression
      range_half --> autoscaled 128 or 0.5 for float
      range_max --> 255/1023/4095/16383/65535 or 1.0 for float
      range_size --> 256/1024...65536
      ymin, ymax, cmin, cmax --> 16/235 and 16/240 autoscaled.

      Example #1 (old):
      expr8_luma = "x 16 - 219 / 255 *"
      expr10_luma = "x 64 - 876 / 1023 *"
      expr16_luma = "x 4096 - 56064 / 65535 *"

      Example #2 (new, with auto-scale operators )
      expr_luma = "x 16 #B - 219 #B / 255 #F *"
      expr_chroma = "x 16 #B - 224 #B / 255 #F *"

      Example #3 (new, with constants)
      expr_luma = "x ymin - ymax ymin - / range_max *"
      expr_chroma = "x cmin - cmax cmin - / range_max *"

  • parameter "stacked" (default false) for filters with stacked format support
    Stacked support is not intentional, but since tp7 did it, I did not remove the feature.
    Filters currently without stacked support will never have it.
  • parameter "realtime" for lut-type filters, slower but at least works on those bit depths
    where LUT tables would occupy too much memory.
    For bit depth limits where realtime = true will be the default working mode, see table below.
    But you can force realtime=false even for a 16 bit lutxy (8GBytes lut table, x64 only)
