Getnative

Find the native resolution(s) of upscaled material (mostly anime)

Usage

Start by executing:

$ getnative [--args] inputFile

If getnative could not be found, try executing this:

# Linux
$ python -m getnative [--args] inputFile

# Windows
$ py -3 -m getnative [--args] inputFile

Start by executing:

$ python -m getnative [--args] inputFile

That's it.

Requirements

To run this script you will need:

Python 3.6
matplotlib
Vapoursynth R45+
descale
ffms2 or lsmash or imwri
*imwri: ImageMagick7 is required for macOS and Linux

Installation

After installing the above prerequisites, install the project via:

$ pip install getnative

Download all files from github
Install all Python dependencies through pip install -r requirements.txt

Recommended Windows Installation

Install these programs from their websites:

Vapoursynth (includes imwri)

Once Vapoursynth is installed:

vsrepo.py install descale
vsrepo.py install ffms2
vsrepo.py install lsmas

Install getnative (and Python dependencies):

pip install getnative

Example Output

Input Command:

$ getnative -k bicubic -b 0.33 -c 0.33 -dir "../../Downloads" "../../Downloads/unknown.png"

Terminal Output:

Using imwri as source filter

500/500

Output Path: /Users/infi/Downloads/results

Bicubic b 0.33 c 0.33 AR: 1.78 Steps: 1
Native resolution(s) (best guess): 873p

done in 13.56s

CLI Args

Property	Description	Default value	Type
help	Automatically render the usage information when running `-h` or `--help`	False	Action
	Absolute or relative path to the input file	Required	String
mode	Choose a predefined mode ["bilinear", "bicubic", "bl-bc", "all"]	None	String
use	Use specified source filter (e.g. "lsmas.LWLibavSource")	None	String

Warning

This script's success rate is far from perfect. If possible, do multiple tests on different frames from the same source. Bright scenes generally yield the most accurate results. Graphs tend to have multiple notches, so the script's assumed resolution may be incorrect. Also, due to the current implementation of the autoguess, it is not possible for the script to automatically recognize 1080p productions. Use your eyes or anibin if necessary.
