There are so many gems in VapourSynth scene.
I really wish there are some better general-purpose imaging libraries that steadily implement/copy these useful filters, so that more people can use them out of the box.
Most of languages I've involved are surprisingly lacking in this regard despite their huge potential use cases.
Like, in case of Python, Pillow is fine but it has nothing fancy. You can't even fine-tune parameters of bicubic, let alone billions of new algorithms from video communities.
OpenCV or ML tools like to re-invent the wheels themselves, but often only the most basic ones (and badly as noted in this article).
- brucethemoose2 4y agoVapourSynth is great for ML stuff actually, as it can ingest/output numpy arrays or PNGs, and work with native FP32. A big sticking point is variable resolution, which it technically supports but doesn't really like without some workarounds. But yeah I agree, its kinda tragic that the ML community is stuck with the simpler stuff.
