Avisynth 3.0

[nbi]

Anyone have this working?

I was able to build it under Debian Etch, but it doesn't seem to work (.avs scripts are not recognized in any app such as mplayer or vlc).

I can't get the avisynth_test built because too much code is missing. The missing code seems to be "Library for H.264/AVC encoding, used by VLC" at http://www.videolan.org, but I can't find a source tarball for this code and the current vlc tarball doesn't include it as the architecture seems to have changed.

I don't even understand why Avisynth 3.0 should work. Just because an avisynth library is available doesn't mean that apps are neccessarily Avisynth aware. Which is probably why it fails under linux with mplayer and vlc. OTOH under Windows Avisynth has been around for a while so many apps like VirtualDub have been getting built with Avisynth awareness for some time.

Avisynth 3.0 uses GStreamer, so you would have to use a program that also uses GStreamer as their backend, which neither VLC nor MPlayer use. Avisynth 3.0 is extremely pre alpha condition right now, mainly meant for developers to help fine tune the code, not really useful for an end user just yet.

Avisynth 2.x series works fine under wine. You can feed the avs scripts to other programs installed through wine (HCenc, TMPGenc, VirtualDub, CCE) or use avs2yuv and pipe the output to mencoder for native Linux encoding.
