I installed AviSynth+ on an Azure Virtual Machine running Windows 10 (AviSynth+ 3.5.1 from https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases, Media Player Classic from https://www.codecguide.com/download_k-lite_codec_pack_mega.htm). I confirmed that the plugins folder at "C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth+\plugins64+" exists and I copied a plugin there.

I tested with a simple AVS script:

Code:
Version()
And it fails on Windows Media Player, whose bottom bar reads "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file" and on Media Player Classic, whose bottom bar reads "Cannot render the file". Neither displays any video content. The same happens after a restart.

The virtual machine was brand new and I tried twice, so I wonder if this is a problem of virtualization.

Has anyone succeeded running AviSynth+ on Azure?
