VSDebug 

VSDebug(
    *,
    env_life: bool = True,
    core_fetch: bool = False,
    use_logging: bool = False
)

Bases: Singleton

Special class that follows the VapourSynth lifecycle for debug purposes.

Print useful debug information.

Parameters:

  • env_life

    (bool, default: True ) –

    Print creation/destroy of VapourSynth environment.

  • core_fetch

    (bool, default: False ) –

    Print traceback of the code that led to the first concrete core fetch. Especially useful when trying to find the code path that is locking you into a EnvironmentPolicy.

VSObject

Base class for objects bound to the lifecycle of a VapourSynth core.

Subclasses can define the special dunder method __vs_del__, which is invoked when the VapourSynth core that owns the object is released.

By default, this method will attempt to safely delete any references to VapourSynth objects held by the instance. Overriding __vs_del__ is only necessary if you need custom cleanup logic beyond the default safe release.

VSObjectABC

Bases: VSObject, ABC

Abstract base class for VSObject subclasses.

VSObjectABCMeta

Bases: VSObjectMeta, ABCMeta

Metaclass for abstract VSObject classes.

VSObjectMeta

Bases: type

Metaclass for VSObject that ensures VapourSynth object lifecycle hooks are registered.

This metaclass automatically registers the __vs_del__ cleanup hook for any class that inherits from VSObject. By default, the cleanup mechanism will attempt to safely release any VapourSynth-bound objects when the core is freed, preventing resource leaks.
