@thethinker would be interested to compare notes. I am writing a custom deghoster/deringing filter since all the ones I tried in avisynth or virtualdub sadly do not do the job. Still work to be done I want to reduce those more, but it is starting to look better. Curious how your approach can do of the left picture.

You need the fbneo core in retroarch. And you can load the rom as content, and pick the core when you get a choice. Or you can use command line: retroarch.exe -L fbneo_libretro.dll gladmort.7z

Don't worry about it this is not a big problem. The VHS part needs a lot of work though, still experimenting. Did not find a satisfying solution yet that does not destroy the small details.

Superbe travail! Bravo et merci!

Beautiful. Thanks for the confirmation, and great work. It will be a great starting source for all work until we can stack the LDs. One thing I noticed is some frames are doubled or trippled which can help reduce some of the noise and hopefully artefacts. I am still scouting the web for a good VHS deghosting or deringing first.

Lol link please. I searched and could not find a real technical explanation. Every frame could be indexed precisely in mp4. So if we can read the mp2 indexing it can be converted to a frame number that can be then used as an index in the mp4. There is pre-processing work of course, but I would love to read what is the technical reason to see if I can be part of solving it 😄

Does anyone know what hypseus is getting from mp2 that it cannot get from mp4?

Not asking what I want, but asking for a solution since you seem knowledgeable. Should we cut the first 157 for the video to be usable as is with hypseus for example? The compression artefacts are too heavy and there is luma clamping, so will not touch those sources. I think what @TheThinker posted is a good start if the last 8 minutes of the videos are what is expected. Haha, I wanted a restoration task for AI. Not for me. Let's see which is stonger of the VHS crappy capture or the overhyped AI 😄

Can we just get rid of the 157 first frames? Also it is hard to believe this is the best capture of the original. The fringing and ghosting seems abnormal. And the bottom is messed up too. Is it a limit of the current LDF capture process or the conversion afterwards?

Ouch YUV4MPEG2 was used. Was C444 used or not? If not it needs to be redone. OK will check it out. I want to run state of the art super resolution and frame interpolation on it. Some people tried but there were issues with the other versions that were posted here with some weird cases breaking. I want a 100% reliable version.

The decoding has "skips", so we might need to overlap a few laserdisc captures before there are no skip issues and the capture is real perfect and "lossless". There are videos on youtube showing how some people did that. Right now this capture is the best available, but until we check degradation and others we don't know how close to "lossless" it is.

Thanks, I actually searched for hours the other day when I saw the 30+ GB discs for the NEC PAC systems. Except I did the wrong search and looked for .mmi discs. I guess I am really getting old. lol.

But is has been encoded with mpeg2 already. Is there a "lossless" laserdisc rip anywhere?

Can you share some of the captures, I can try few upscaling and cleaning algorithms to see which ones works best. The signal is pretty bad, wondering if something what would work best. CUGAN ESRGAN RealSR SRMD Waifu2x

My tool can clean up the non-needed roms. I only have a couple on clones, gngt because the original gng does not have continue and another racing game that had 2P screens by default and needed a clone to get 1P only. 1. make a copy of your roms folder 2. Scanroms and repack 3. Check after the repack how many games and errors you have. You can download the roms one by one or go after large torrents. For me it was manageable I just had 15 or so but I updated from 253 to 278, if you have a bigger gap you might have more to download. scanroms -mode=non-merged -repack=on

The most important decision for your rom is which mode you want to be in. Do you like to have only one version of a game which can be a clone or parent? then non-merged seems good for you (my choice). This is also the smallest on disk if you only have one copy of each game. If you have all clones it will be bigger. Do you like to have all major games and few select clones? then split mode seems good for you. Should be second smallest disk footprint Do you like to have all versions and clones of a game? If yes most likely merged is right for you. Do you like to have only one version of a game and easy to take to other machines and share? then non-merged-with-bios seems good for you

No, you should just update the roms and chds that have changed since your last version. You can use my tool for that or any other tool. Which version are you upgrading from? For those interested, I have updated my scanroms small tool: https://limewire.com/d/S7IqK#EQ43YPLmJy It now supports different modes depending on how you like your roms. I only have one rom per game so I use non-merged, but I know different people use different formats. Usage (all parameters are optional, you can just throw the exe in the mame folder and run it): scanroms [-mame=pathToMameRoot] [-7z=pathToDirWhere7z.exeIs] [-repack=on] [-deepSearch] [-game=aburner2] [-mode=split] Example: scanroms -mame="c:\emus\mame\" -7z="c:\7zip" Will look for mame.exe in "c:\emus\mame\" and 7z.exe in "c:\7zip". Example: scanroms -repack=on Will rename and delete unneeded roms. It creates a backup of every modified rom. Example: scanroms -repack=on -game=aburner2 Will only check and fix After Burner 2. Example: scanroms -deepSearch Will search previous and current mame roms databases to help complete your set. Example: scanroms -mode=non-merged Clones include all the roms from original. Bioses are separate files. Example: scanroms -mode=non-merged-with-bios PleasureDome style where clones include all the roms from original. Both contain bioses. Example: scanroms -mode=split Clones do not include parent roms. Bioses are separate files. Example: scanroms -mode=merged Parent roms include all clones roms. Bioses are separate files.

What is the best title you recommend for someone like me who do not know anything about this system?

Ca me dit "The cartridme memory RAM is not present"

[Edit] Finally found the issue. I had the same issue, but it always happen when you press the start key. I pressed a regular button and it works now.

Faut que je regarde, j'ai jamais utilise le Mega LD. Si tu peux partager les liens sur bios/jeu et me dire quel emulateur il faut pour ca je peux regarder. En gros faut debugger le bios.
