Problems with avisynth

[runner]

I am having problems with avisynth and cce 2.50 When I go to start encoding the avs file, I get an error saying " according to the registry, the type of file specified in AVIFILEOPEN does not have a handler to process it. "

I have made sure I have installed the avisynth files correctly, got the avisynth.dll pasted into the winnt\system32 folder. Any ideas on what to try next? Thanks for any help.

There is a registry registerer script (called INSTALL.REG) in the avisynth package. This will properly register the file type.

Copy the following into a file named INSTALL.REG and run it if you can't find the script.

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\avifile\Extensions\AVS]
@="{E6D6B700-124D-11D4-86F3-DB80AFD98778}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Media Type\Extensions\.avs]
"Source Filter"="{D3588AB0-0781-11CE-B03A-0020AF0BA770}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E6D6B700-124D-11D4-86F3-DB80AFD98778}]
@="Avisynth"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E6D6B700-124D-11D4-86F3-DB80AFD98778}\InProcServer32]

Thanks for the reply. I have done that, and many more things. Been on every site and have read everything I can, still get the same error. The avi file I am trying to encode to svcd will play in windows media player with no problems. I may have to use virtual dub to frameserv.

Sorry for the double post.

Post your frameserving script here and let the experts examine it. An AVI file doesn't usually NEED to be frameserved (it already IS an AVI!).

You need to tell us more about what you are doing.

I am trying to encode a divx file into a svcd using cce. I am resizing the divx, with a script made with fitcd, then passing it on to cce. No matter what scripts I try, I get the same error.

SLK001,

Avi files do need to be frameserved if you plan on using CCE. An avi almost never comes in a compliant resolution and often needs to be worked with a bit before CCE can produce useful results.

Anyway, the reason I am posting is to give Runner some advice. I had the same problem getting Avisynth to work on my Win 98 SE system. I tried everything and it just would not work. What finally made it work for me was to get the AviResetAll registry patch. The file consists of a small registry patch that resets all your avi registry settings to blank. Keep in mind, this will wipe out Virtual Dub Frame Serving, VFAPI-Converter, many installed codecs and the like. I was not thrilled to do it, but after applied the patch, Avisynth installed like a champ. Since then I have added all the avi programs/codecs back into my system without any problems.

Oh yeah, the file can be obtained at www.doom9.net in the tools section under "Support Utilities" [/quote]

pet_head, thanks, but I have even tried that. I am running win2k here. I reset and re-installed everthing, still no luck.

Seems I have got it to work, have to run cce in nt4 capatibility mode.
