• "Automatic" switchable graphics on desktop, is there a way to disable them ?

  14 août 2021, par Hab-Land0

  Recently, I've updated my graphic drivers for a new system I built, a mix between an amd apu and an nvidia quadro. But I stumbled upon a rare problem, every time I tried to use OpenCL acceleration on ffmpeg for libx264 encoding, ffmpeg notifies me with the next line :

  


  [libx264 @ 0000028149222780] OpenCL acceleration disabled, switchable graphics detected


  


  When searching this line on ffmpeg's code, apparently occurs when the "main OpenCL driver" (if you can call it that) is redirected in such a way that tries to use both devices (Code).

  


  My obvious next step was to search everything I could around this "switchable graphics", but almost all the tutorials on websites told me that I should search around the driver's settings, but literally either Radeon Software or Nvidia's control panel don't display any option about it (It is worth to say that almost all of the tutorials refer to laptops with dedicated graphics and were very outdated).

  


  Another way I use OpenCL is for vapoursynth's filters, such as KNLMeansCL. And, when I make use of this filter, task manager detects that both AMD's APU and Nvidia's gpu are being used simultaneously (I guess that's how the switchable graphics actually works, and partially complementing why x264 OpenCL doesn't work).

  


  My main complain with this is that I attempt to use AMD as a display driver and let Nvidia do the hard work, and I actually was able to do that before updating my drivers. And, talking about the "updates" more in-depth, I updated nvidia's from "462.59" to "471.11" and, unfortunately, I can't remember what versions were my AMD drivers.

  


  Edit : the only way I can make full use of NVIDIA's card is by using it as my main display, but that also apparently disables AMD's igpu, I am not sure if its even able to be used on small tasks (like those that were previously mentioned)

  


• Remove Static Pixels from a Video to Mimic a Green Screen Effect [closed]

  2 août 2021, par nKrkan

  I have a video that's 50 seconds in length, resolution of 480x480 and 16 frames per second.

  


  There is a person talking in it, with the background being static I thought if there's a way
  
to remove those static pixels (background) and just extract the moving pixels (foreground)
  
and possibly mimic a green screen effect ?

  


  I was thinking on writing a picture-by-picture comparison tool to do such thing but I don't
  
believe I'm up to the task, or maybe It's laziness.

  


  And now I know, some of you will point out that the video has compression artifacts and that
  
might cause some problems but It doesn't have to be Studio quality stuff.

  


  I tried the ffmpeg command from this question : Remove random background from video using ffmpeg or Python
  
And it does mask the person, but... I couldn't quite get it to work, apparently putting the
  
reference image in the input makes that image burned into the video, thus having no way to
  
remove it, but it did mask the background as black and the person as greenish, so still not a
  
viable way to do it.

  


  Have also tried some Python projects I've found on the GitHub but none of them worked as
  
I expected.

  


  So, what I thought to do is simply compare the first and the second frame of the video, check
  
all the pixels by comparing them with the two sources, and change those that stay within a
  
certain range of the initial pixel value.

  


  I should point out I'm not very knowledgeable with mathematics and the majority of the
  
methods used in these type of things, but perhaps someone could point me to an interesting
  
source to read and learn, or by providing an alternative to the methods aforementioned above.
