Problems with VirtualDub

[Shirahime]

I am new to the whole putting your DVD contents into AVI format. I found a guide online (2003) and tried to use it, but I came up with a problem and the guide doesn't explain how to fix problems.

I use AviSynth2.5, Plugins include MPEG2Dec3 & Decomb521 to try and change it around.
DVD Decrypter for putting it into VOB files.
And VirtualDub for supposedly reading the avs file, but it doesn't.

I followed the instructions of how to input the source code, but I'm not sure.
This is what I have written;

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Decomb521.dll")
MPEG2Source("C:\DVD.d2v", idct=5)

According to the guide, it's right, but when I try to load it (I do have it saved as DVD.avs), I get this error. . .

Avisynth open failure:
MPEG2Source : Unable to load file "C:\DVD.d2v"
(C:\DVD.avs. line 3)

If anyone knows this problem, which I'm sure many of you might. I'd be much appreciated if you could help me fix it. Thank you in advance.

Well is there a c:\DVD.d2v? Also could be a version miss match. I'd suggest that you use the latest DGIndex and DGDecode,

Your problem is with AVISynth by the way, not VDub as the title states.

If you don't have very special tweaks you want to use for the XviD/DivX codec, I suggest you try autogk, as that app automates exactly what you're trying to do.
It's good to know how to do this by hand, if nothing else so you can trouble shoot, but AutoGK and/or avi.net does a better job at DVD to AVI than most mortals.
