batch process with Avisynth?

[sp_key]

Hi all,

Is it possible to process multiple avi files with Avisynth? I am now doing this with VirtualDub and the VirtualDub Batcher but I would like to try Avisynth.

If possible provide a script example.

Thanks in advance

What exactly do you mean by "process"?

If you mean set up several jobs to run sequentially, I do this regularly. I create a separate avs file for each avi I want to encode, then I set up a bat file to use the command line feature of QuEnc to process the avs files, one after the other.

C:
CD Program Files\Quenc

Quenc -i "G:\Video\Video1.avs" -o "E:\Video1.mpg" -b 6395 -maxbitrate 9000 -dc 10 -priority 3 -2 -mpeg2mux -hq -vbr -noscene -notrell -cgop -interlaced -noextreme -gopsize 12 -maxbframes 2 -nocmatrix -aspectratio 4:3 -mpeg2mux dvd -audiocodec AC3 -audiobitrate 384 -bff -auto -close

Quenc -i "G:\Video\Video2.avs" -o "E:\Video2.mpg" -b 6395 -maxbitrate 9000 -dc 10 -priority 3 -2 -mpeg2mux -hq -vbr -noscene -notrell -cgop -interlaced -noextreme -gopsize 12 -maxbframes 2 -nocmatrix -aspectratio 4:3 -mpeg2mux dvd -audiocodec AC3 -audiobitrate 384 -bff -auto -close

This example will process 2 videos, Video1 then Video2. Also it's kind of hard to see because of the automatic word wrap, but everything after Quenc is on the same line of text.

By ''Process'' I mean filtering.

I'm afraid my batch would be of the amount of 50 to 100 clips weekly so I hoped for a much shorter script, one that wouldn't have to put all the filenames in, more like the following

-Hi AviSynth
-Go to that folder and get all videos
-Filter them
-Save them in the other folder.
-Goodbye AviSynth



I hope you get the picture?

Once I get the basic script I could then extend it by adding coffee-making commands lol

thx for replies

I've never used it, but it looks like it might do what you're asking for.

It looks exactly like what I have in mind !!

Thanks for the info.

p.s: what about the coffee commands?

I thought you said you could handle those once you got the basic script. :P
