AviSynth: AVI to DVD colour problem

[gonzalimator]

When I use AviSource, the colours show up incorrectly (everybody's skin is blue). When I use DirectShowSource the colours are correct.

Source: DIVX Avi
Output: .m2v

using AviSynth to frameserve (with a resize) to TMPGEnc.

I remember reading once about this problem, but I can't seem to find anything in the forums. Just wondering if I HAVE to use DirectShowSource in this case. Any input on this is welcome.

Have you tried reinstalling the Divx codec??

Well everything works just fine in Windows media player so I don't know if that will make a difference. Could that actually happen? Would AVISynth read the file incorrectly while everything else reads it correctly? TMPG reads the AVI correctly when I load it directly (except it reports the wrong framerate).

The AVI was encoded with the DivX v3 codec if that is of any consequence.

Thanks for the reply.
