I'm getting this error when I run "python runGan.py 1"

Anyone know what the issue is? I'm using anaconda on my windows 8.1.

You probably need to run it in a Unix environment such as Linux, WSL or the docker environment I provide on my fork: https://github.com/tom-doerr/TecoGAN. The reason is that the python code executes some shell commands and I'm not sure if you can get those running in Windows.

Damn, looks like I'll try and make a virtual machine. I sadly can't get docker to run on my windows 8.1, spent the whole day yesterday trying to get it to run but couldn't.

Just a performance question though, were you able to run TecoGan on images at 1080p or higher? Did they work? Any idea how much Vram you would need for various image sizes?

[tom-doerr]

I can't remember what the image sizes were or how much Vram was necessary for inference. You could open another issue for that, maybe someone else knows.

Tecogan runs fine on Windows 10.

For a 2080Ti the maximum is slightly over SD video size.

I ended up getting it to work fine, but I decided to install ubuntu on an external SATA drive I had. Sadly the results weren't as good as I thought, it does do some stuff fairly well, but it has to be very low res, it doesn't work well for resolutions above ~360p, below that it's a coin toss, sometimes it works well, other times not so well.
