[ivancccka]

hi,thank u for your great job. now i'm running this project on my own computer but i meet some trouble. i run the code on Windows10.and put my video as the read.md asked. but after i type"../../dash_vid_setup.sh -i [video_file]",nothing generates. Here i've downloaded MP4Box and x264 and i know ther are used to generate MPEG-DASH.but I don't know how use it. i need your help and thanks a lot.

Hi ivanccaka, I cannot give you a guide based on the given information (also I'm not quite aware of Window environment).. But, dash_vid_set.sh is just used for setting transcoding a video to support adaptive streaming. Thus, if your purpose is to test super-resolution performance, you can try our code by preparing a pair of low-resolution and high-resolution videos. For example, you can easily download Youtube videos using youtube-dl.

thanks a lot. and i got 2 questions again. first,i didn't see steps of using x264 and mp4box,so i guess the two tools are used while typing 'dash_vid_set.sh ',am I right? second,i've downloaded some videos with different resolutin,and i place it like

data ---[dataset name] --video_of_240p.mp4 --video_of_360p.mp4 --video_of_1080p.mp4

but when i train NAS-MDSR,the error occurs.and i find the 52th line in dataset.py means the filename should include 'output*k.mp4'. So is the way i placed right?or the names of videos are litmited to some certarin names? thanks a lot again!

ok，i've installed x264 and mp4box successfully.but i meet the same quesion with the guy in another open issue while using the youtube video from your link. while downloading the video,i have a lot of chioces,i think maybe i've downloaded the wrong one,so which one is correct?

You should download a video which resolution is 1080p and encoded by h.264. So, in the above image, 137 would be a right choice.
