avisynth script

[magenta2007]

hi
just started using this app found it very easy to get into with some good results
but i would like to use the avisynth fillters to see if i can improve things
but the ones i used in other programs dont seem to work

does anybody have any idea what the script file should look like
any help would be appreciated thanks

Any scripts should work.... Can you attach your script? Also if there are any errors/messages then can you post those too?

[magenta2007]

heres the script

# -= AviSynth v2.5.7.0 sample1 script =-
AVISource("C:\TESTFOLDER\Sample1.avi")
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max=3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Deen("c2d",2,4,6,4,6,0.5,9,"")
asharp(1,4)
UnDot()
BicubicResize(688,272,0,0.6,6,0,628,272)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max=10,variance=0.3,seed=2)
AddBorders(16,104,16,104)
#Trim(0,206369).FadeOut(150)

and the error






i,ve used the same script on other samples but they had mp3 audio
and they worked ok

Any if you play that script in MPC or WMP does it play as expected? What is the audio stream on this one?

[magenta2007]

loading the TFsample script into

MPC (unicode build) Version 6.4.9.0
or

WMP Version 10.00.00.4058
or

VirtualDubMod Version 1.5.10.0

i get No compatible ACM codec to decode 0x2000 audio stream
to PCM (C:TESTFOLDER\TFsample.avs,line 2)
but if i just load the avi into them app's it plays fine

BTW it as ac3 audio
it only does it with files containing ac3 audio


Loading Sample1.avi in Gspot it says for the audio
Codec
Name ac3 (0x2000) Dolby Laboratories, Inc
Birate 448 kb/s (6 ch) CBR Fs 48000 Hz

Well I'm no avisynth expert but looking at http://avisynth.org/AviSource it would seem that it is no good for AC3 streams... i would either use DirectShowSource or NicAudio.dll

The bottom line is that the AVS file must play in WMP/MPV etc or SVCD2DVD will not like it (nor would any other program)

when playing the source avi in WMP you are using DirectShow so if that is playing ok I would just stick to DirectShowSource as you know the codecs are on your PC for playback.

thanks for your help DirectShowSource got it working
just needed to add converttoyv12() to the script


(gspot rendered info)

DirectShow claims to be able to play the file. The following combination of filters were used:

{C:\TESTFOLDER\Sample1.avi} (Source)
{AVI Splitter} (Splitter)

{Xvid MPEG-4 Video Decoder} (Video Decoder)
{Video Renderer} (Video Renderer)

{AC3Filter} (Audio Decoder)
{Default DirectSound Device} (Audio Renderer)



# -= AviSynth v2.5.7.0 sample1 script =-
DirectShowSource("C:\TESTFOLDER\Sample1.avi")
converttoyv12()
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =3,variance=0.1,seed=1)
Deen("c2d",2,4,6,4,6,0.5,9,"")
asharp(1,4)
UnDot()
BicubicResize(688,272,0,0.6,6,0,628,272)
Blockbuster(method="noise",detail_min=1,detail_max =10,variance=0.3,seed=2)
AddBorders(16,104,16,104)
#Trim(0,206369).FadeOut(150)
