Collective brain trust, I am new to this so please be gentile.

How do I create my own custom FreeFrame plugin?

I know that FreeFrame is simply a framework and not an app. And that FreeFrame plugins can be used in a slew of host apps / NLE’s, but my question is this…

It seems that all of these host apps will save a clip as an AVI and that’s all fine and good, but what if you want to make your own FreeFrame plugin using a string of multiple readymade plugins or simply an effect you’ve created on your own that you wish to replicate?

My end goal is to create my own custom FreeFrame plugin that I can then use in another app that uses AviSynth. I know that my other app (DVDslideshowGUI) supports AviSynth FreeFrame plugins. It appears that all of the existing FreeFrame plugins used in AviSynth are DLL’s.

At this point I’ve not committed to a specific FreeFrame host app/NLE yet so if one allows you to generate your own plugin/DLL I’d like to know.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and help.
