Good news! Hybrid macOS delopment version 2021.03.23 was released some time ago, and seems Selur finally gave up with his strange UI limitations.

Tabs structure is back to normal.
disableIcons=true option in misc.ini works again.
experimental=true in misc.ini start Hybrid in fullscreen and also allow window resize.

So i guess i may back to testing and may update package installer some day too...

P.S. Seems this version still supported on Mojave, but i guess it should work better for Catalina and BigSur.

Unfortunately starting from version 54 MKVToolNix from https://www.fosshub.com/MKVToolNix.html require macOS 10.15.
So if someone still on Mojave - do not update above MKVToolNix 53.

I guess most people use Hybrid for deinterlacing? Did someone test the latest deinterlacer in Resolve 17.2?
Improved spatial and temporal deinterlace quality

It's pretty good, and should suffice for most cases.
But QTGMC is still a tad better, in particular with 4:1:1 or 4:2:0 DV with the dreaded chroma error.

Anyone got this working on M1 Macs?

I don't think VS is M1 ready (neither many filters which are inside QTGMC).
Should work under emulation layer though.

Got it working on M1. Reread the instruction and I messed up. Just download the 1GB package and follow the instructions carefully! Haha :lol:

I didn't used Hybrid package for some time, and today i noticed that for some unknown reason Hybrid 2021.04.06 always double speed transcoded footage when i use "bob" option in deinterlacer. So i installed newer 2021.04.12 version and it fixed the problem (from 2021.04.12 changelog - Vapoursynth: fixed QTGMC bob). So i decide to update my package to more resent version.

VapourSynth+Plugins+Scripts+Hybrid-2021.07.13 package updates:
VapourSynth-R53
XQuartz 2.8.1
VulkanSDK 1.2.182.0 (seems new Vulcan installer needs manual fix for Mojave https://vulkan.lunarg.com/issue/view/60 ... 3ca1602dfa )
Hybrid 2021.04.12
FFmpeg 2021-07-11
ScriptsInHybrid 2021.07.11
FranceBB LUTs 2021.07.12

VapourSynth+Plugins+Scripts+Hybrid-2021.07.26 package updates:
- VapourSynth-R54
- Hybrid 2021.07.18
- Included MKVToolNix 53.0.0 - the last version compatible with macOS 10.14 Mojave. If you work with MKV subtitles or use macOS 10.15 and higher , it is recommended to use Hybrid build from https://www.selur.de/downloads instead of my Mojave optimized build.
- Hybrid/FFmpeg now able to read ProRes 4444 as true 12 bit. (But seems ProRes 444 render is still limited to 10bit only)
- TIVTC filter added to Plugins pkg.
- DPID filter added to Plugins pkg, but seems it conflicts with DeCross by producing Finder crash if click to one of these. DPID is special downscale resizer filter, so you can delete it if you don't use it or if you expect some problems with it.

ProRes decoder is 12bit, but encoder still 10 as no one at the open source community wants to waste time to fix it :) Maybe it will come with sponsored request.

Too bad FFmpeg still can't render to ProRes 12 bit.
Also it appears it was a bug in Hybrid with ProRes 12 bit when used in pair with "Levels" or "Limiter" and "UseRGB" setting. Problem was just now fixed in Hybrid_dev_mac_2021072601
Seems due native ProRes 12 bit input support and internal processing at 16 bit instead of 10bit quality became slightly better now. Here are some test results with applied extreme Levels:

Original Resolve ProRes 444 12 bit export:

Same file Exported from Hybrid to ProRes 444 12 bit (current dev version of Hybrid and FFmpeg):
Image

Same file but Exported from legacy Hybrid to ProRes 444 12 bit (Hybrid 2020 and some earlier version of FFmpeg):

And for reference here is Levels applied in Hybrid to original Resolve ProRes 422 10 bit export:

Few days ago l33tmeatwad released VapourSynth R55 & R56 installers, but due large amount of changes in API they are not fully compatible with current version of Hybrid. So just ignore VapourSynth R55 & R56 updates yet.

Any more updated versions for MacOS? Still works on Sonoma, but some of the software is outdated (mkvmerge). I tried messing around with the app package, but it broke it, so I reverted back to what you had. Or if you have instructions how to update the underlying software. Thanks in advance.

My package optimized for 10.14 Mojave and so use binaries from legacy version MKVToolNix-53.0.0 (last version compatible with Mojave.)

If you on newer OS versions, it is better to download last version of MKVToolNix https://mkvtoolnix.download/macos/ copy mkvextract mkvinfo mkvmerge from MKVToolNix app contents and paste/replace them inside Hybrid app contents folder (Hybrid.app/Contents/MacOS).

After that in Hybrid click to Config->Tools->Clear all cashed tool infos.

P.S. Unfortunately, looking to the Hybrid updates history and forum conversations it seems developer lost interest to macOS platform again. Guess mostly because FFMpeg and some other tools will not run natively on ARM and never will.

Apple should change some direction, many people that would like to upgrade to arm don’t do that for many reason.
I moved to hackintosh from some year be cause I not like the fact that I cannot install pci express card or expand memory of my mac computer. Mac Pro is too expansive and too limited (weak power module) to add many graphics card (I use 3d render that use multiple gpu like resolve).
Until I can I follow this way, if and when I will cannot I will move back to windows that I not like (I use windows from windows 32 on dos), but I think is too big limitation not expand ram and be forced to decide and buy at time of computer buying.

Just want to note that seems we stuck in time yet with Hybrid 2022.03.20.1 compatible only up to R57.
R58 and newer installer packages now include only core application & dependencies, so all additional basic required plugins should be provided separately, so Plugins.pkg should be changed to make it work.
I use Hybrid 2022.08.17.1 development version that works only with R60 and higher (due another changes), but i don't know if it fully compatible with R62, with Hybrid scripts updates and with current version of FFmpeg.
In R63 something was changed again and l33tmeatwad can't compile yet it due "some changes that will require a higher minimum OS version."

They don't provide ready binaries, but there are compiled version on internet. Been there for months.
ffmpg itself been generic ARM ready for years.

I love ARM. The efficiency and performance per Watt are unbeatable. Even in emulation/layer/rosetta or whatever it uses with the current iteration of vapoursynth and qtgmc it works fast enough. I don't have any issues and only needed the software for the superior deinterlacing. Everything else I do is on native ARM software on my Mac Studio.

I also haven't owned a Microsoft machine in over a decade. I will be soon done and probably never use the software again. Since most people are happy with their current setup and the developers don't seem to have a priority, probably there will not be an update.

If you are only looking for de-interlacing, there are all the options in Shutter Encoder, like Yadif.
