Note: For a more experimental feature set (new parameters, use hw devices for motion estimation, but Windows only) have a look at DTL's fork: https://github.com/DTL2020/mvtools

External dependencies:

• libfftw3f-3.dll (or renamed to FFT3W.DLL) from http://www.fftw.org/ or look at ICL builds at http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=173229 It is used only at specific dct parameter values

• May require Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/

Others Modification base:

• mvtools2, 2.6.0.5 64 bit version from http://avisynth.nl/index.php/AviSynth%2B#AviSynth.2B_x64_plugins

Build Instructions

Note:

Windows MSVC builds are using external assembler source - if there exists.

Other builds are using internal SIMD code, governed by defines in def.h

Windows MSVC

• Prerequisite: for asm compilation use nasm https://www.nasm.us/ Visual Studio integration: https://github.com/ShiftMediaProject/VSNASM/releases

  Compiler nasm.exe can appear in c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\

  You can check the files nasm.targets, nasm.props and nasm.xml in e.g. c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\Msbuild\Microsoft\VC\v170\BuildCustomizations\

  For XP compatible (v141_xp) build, copy them to c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\Msbuild\Microsoft\VC\v150\BuildCustomizations\ as well.

  Latest nasm (as of 2022.Dec.) will throw a lot of warnings on x265 assembler files. Temporarily they are silenced with -w-macro-params-legacy parameter.
