Error with AVS and VirtualDub

[megakoolkid]

I am trying to load an .avs script into VirtualDub and am getting this error. Not sure what to do, any help is appreciated!

Please post your script.

I'm going to guess you are missing the TIVTC package, or didn't load it

Loadplugin("C:\PATH\TIVTC.dll")

[megakoolkid]

ok i added that line and its still not working. here is my script.

LoadPlugin("C:\TIVTC\TIVTC.dll")

DirectShowSource("File.ts",fps=59.94,convertfps=tr ue,audio=true)
SelectEven().Decimate(5)

I'm assuming that you have your directory path correct in your script for "file.ts" (it should be something like C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\.....)

The default directory for tivtc.dll is C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins, are you sure you have it in C:\TIVTC ?

[megakoolkid]

yes i am sure its there, look:

[poisondeathray]

What version of avisynth are you using?

Where is it installed?

[megakoolkid]

2.5.7 is the version and it is located in C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5

[poisondeathray]

Is it the same avisynth error as in your 1st post?

I'm not sure, but you can try putting it in the default plugins directory

ok i added that line and its still not working. here is my script.

LoadPlugin("C:\TIVTC\TIVTC.dll")

DirectShowSource("File.ts",fps=59.94,convertfps=tr ue,audio=true)
SelectEven().Decimate(5)

That can't be the script as you're using Decimate(5) instead of TDecimate(5).

Is that a typo, or are you really trying to use Decimate from the Decomb package?

[megakoolkid]

im not sure what one i need to use. this is a scrip that was provided to me. i am trying to convert my 59.940fps HD file and encode it down to 23fps. is it TDecimate or Decimate that is used to do this? and am i using the right number with 5?

Are you set now with everything?

[manono]

i am trying to convert my 59.940fps HD file and encode it down to 23fps.

And you're sure 23.976fps is the correct framerate?

is it TDecimate or Decimate that is used to do this?

You can use either. They both do the same thing. But the only one that will work given your script and the fact that you loaded the TIVTC.dll, is TDecimate(5). If you wish to use Decimate(5) then you'd load the Decomb.dll.

and am i using the right number with 5?

SelectEven brings it down to 29.97fps and TDecimate(5) removes the one frame in 5 that's a duplicate frame (assuming 23.976fps to be the correct framerate) so, yes, 5 is the right number. Since 5 is the default, you can also use:

TDecimate()

I never use DirectShowSource when I can use something else, and if this is an MPEG-2 transport stream I'd much rather make a D2V project file, load the DGDecode.dll, and use MPEG2Source on it. But if your script begins working after replacing Decimate(5) with TDecimate(5), then you may as well stick with that.
