Comment (by cehoyos):

 Replying to [comment:4 Gyan]:
 > The ffmpeg memory allocation functions will not allocate more than
 INT_MAX bytes (2^31-1).

 > Two of the data structures in minterpolate hit that limit at around
 4096x4095. It is unlikely that the limit will be raised.

 I thought it would make sense to raise the limit under some conditions ...

 > So, the other possible way is to refactor those data structures into
 separate arrays, say, one per N rows, and allocate each separately. And
 then adapt the filter to work with this new arrangement.
 >
 > One possible workaround with the current filter is to divide each frame
 into partitions. Crop to each partition, with some padding added as per
 the search radius. Perform minterpolate, crop to remove padding. And then
 stack the results together. This could get very slow, so do it one
 partition per command, save to lossless or HQ codec and then stitch those.

 ... especially since afaict, all this would not help on 32bit systems
 (where above limit cannot be raised significantly).
