michio: I'm guessing that you don't have a proper directshow filter installed, that is why mpc and HcEnc are freezing, yet both vdubmod and avisource() work for you.
DirectShowSource() uses - yes you guessed it - Directshow.
AviSource() uses VFW (video for windows), as does the vdub family.
This is why I suggested ffdshow. (but you still have to enable DivX in the ffdshow configuration)
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

My guess would be that you didn't install it correctly. You are using DirectShowSource() in an avs script, yet didn't checkmark it for script serving?? Make sure it's enabled (2nd pic)

I'm assuming that wasn't the "full" script, because there is no directory path. I'm assuming you got the path correct
Take the crop off for now (or insert#)
Try taking the spaces out of the script.
You need to register quartz.dll for directshow. I don't know how it works under Vista but that was what (regsvr32 C:\windows\system32\quartz.dll) was for. Try run=> regsvr32 quartz.dll
Are you running as administrator? -

I doubt an unregistered quartz.dll is your problem though. If that was the case you would have all kinds of problems playing media files. -

Nobody knows what's wrong with your system. Diagnosing and fixing your problem will probably take a lot of work. I wonder if AviSynth needs to be installed with Administrator privileges to be fully functional?
If that doesn't work I would uninstall any codec packs and codecs you may have installed. Uninstall ffdshow and AviSynth. Clean out the registry. Register quartz.dll again. Reinstall AviSynth. See if DirectShowSource() can read a simple uncompressed RGB AVI file. Install ffdshow. Install Divx or Xvid if you don't want to use the MPEG4 ASP decoder in ffdshow. -
ah damn :/ it seems like a lot of work ... and I don't even know if I can do all of this properly
-
but I have just bought a new computer and I don't think anything serious could be wrong with it :/...can't I just test to reinstall the programs I use or simply use another method?
-
well jagabo I'll then try to do what you told me from the beginning:
I would uninstall any codec packs and codecs you may have installed. Uninstall ffdshow and AviSynth. Clean out the registry. Register quartz.dll again. Reinstall AviSynth. See if DirectShowSource() can read a simple uncompressed RGB AVI file. Install ffdshow. Install Divx or Xvid if you don't want to use the MPEG4 ASP decoder in ffdshow. -
Try ccleaner to clean your registry.
Why don't you use AviSource() ? It worked for you earlier. -
Microsoft used to make a free registry cleaning tool but I don't know if it works for Vista. There are commercial products but you probably don't need one if your Vista install is recent and you haven't added a lot of software. Especially if you haven't installed any codec packs like KLite.
If you know how to use RegEdit you might manually check to make sure any Avisynth and ffdshow entries are deleted. And any codec pack entries. That last one is probably difficult since codec packs can install dozens of codecs and other filters and each may have registry entries.
I did a quick test on a Vista system and found that AviSynth's DirectShowSource() worked there. So it's not a simple incompatibility with Vista. -

ok so I have now found this AC3ACM installer and after installed this I could finally open the AC3 Dolby sound (my .avs file) in VirtualDubMod...but there is still something wrong...when I play up my file the sound is much "lower" then the sound from the beginning...why's that?
-
You were told at least twice to get AC3 ACM for VirtualDub.
AC3 has a normal volume level much lower than MP3, WAV, etc. Turn up the gain if you are converting to MP3 or WAV. -
where I told to get AC3ACM before? :O SORRY then!!! ... ok I have found the gain options when I first turned on the "Use advanced filtering" when I right click on my stream. Then I choose filters->gain...but what shall I select when I press congifure?? From the beginning the "gain number" is 1.000 but when I press OK and try to watch the movie there is an error: "Audio filter graph lacks an output mode"

yeah I know.. sorry!!...I have now opened my .wav (with the wrong volume) in Audacity and changed the Hrz to what my .avi file had from the beginning...then I export the .wav file and I get perfect result!!!!

Rather than using VirtualDub's advanced filtering, just use Audio Full Processing mode and the Volume control. Try boosting the audio by 10 dB.
If you want to use advanced filtering:
-
hm I'm using VirtualDubMod and not VirtualDub so I will use advanced filtering because I can not find any "Volume control" button

The saddest part is that it wouldn't kill you to just once graciously take some of the advice offered, give thanks, and enjoy the superior results gained from said advice. Instead you seem to be going out of your way to be rude, stubborn, and pig-headed. I am also surprised at how patient some of the older members have been with this thread, given the lack of respect you have shown.
FWIW - I have three different versions of virtualdub on my machine - virtualdub, virtualdubmod and virtualdubmpeg-2. Each has it's place, and each gets used as appropriate. I suspect that many have at least two versions of virtualdub for similar reasons.Read my blog here.

SORRY!!!
but I just get mad when something don't work when it should (as said my computer is a new one)
I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE HELP ALL OF YOU HAVE GIVEN ME!!! BIG THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!!!!
and I do take the advice that have been given to me...SORRY once again that I have forgotten about the AC3ACM ...I really should try it before...but I wanted to solve the DirectShowSource() problem first(which I didn't solve to the end so I went back and tried AC3ACM insted wich worked just fine )...
SORRY THAT I DIND'T THANKS ALL OF YOU EARIEL!! ALL THE ADVICE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME HELPED ME A LOT!!!
THANK YOU!!!
