Welcome to the vapoursynth-zipcl wiki!

vszipcl is a VapourSynth plugin written in Zig that provides OpenCL-accelerated video filters.

All filters accept 8/16-bit integer, 16-bit half, and 32-bit float input and are multi-plane (Gray / YUV / RGB, subsampled chroma).

FILTERS

• Bilateral: OpenCL port of VapourSynth-BilateralGPU.
• Deband: OpenCL port of placebo.Deband (libplacebo's pl_shader_deband).
• EEDI3 / EEDI3H: Edge-directed interpolation (vertical / horizontal), same numeric core as the vapoursynth-zip CPU EEDI3.
• GaussBlur: Separable Gaussian blur.
• NLMeans: Non-local means denoiser, matching KNLMeansCL.

📊 See Benchmarks — vszipcl vs each reference at 1080p YUV420 (u16/f16/f32, num_streams 1 & 2).

COMMON ARGUMENTS

Every filter takes these two optional arguments:

• device_id (int, default: 0):
  OpenCL device index (platform 0). Out-of-range or negative values are rejected.
• num_streams (int, default: 1, range: 1..32):
  Number of concurrent per-frame resource sets. The default of 1 serializes to one frame at a time; raise it to overlap more frames on the GPU (up to what the kernel/transfer mix can hide — 2 already captures most of the scaling). Output is bit-identical at any stream count.
