Can someone post a simple how to here for avisynth?

[perdomot]

I've been to a bunch of sites trying to get info on this program and am getting conflicting info. I'm using VDub to capture and TMPEG to encode and want to do an inverse telecine as a script. There also appears to be a couple of different versions of avisynth so could the version being used also be posted? Thanks.

You should use version 2.0 (2.5 is in beta). You can find it here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/avisynth2/

You can find out more info on AVISynth here:

The manual for AVISynth is located here:

I also have it in text format. Let me know if you can't find it, and I'll mail it to you.

Hi DJ,
Thanks for the links. I think my problem is writing the scripts. Can you tell me how you would write one? When I capture my avi, I name it CAPTURE. What I want to try to do is an inverse telecine to change the fps from 29.97 to 23.97 because I'm changing my anime vhs tapes to vcd format. Any other suggestions for filters would be appreciated. Thanks.

I combined this thread with the other. Your sample script is here:

I've never messed with telecine/inverse telecine but I do use avisynth quite often. I've recently switched to V2.0 of avisynth for my editing because of being able to use functions and import() files containing functions. This makes my editing life lots easier.

To that end, if anyone is interested I have a file of functions to do wipes (ok they're not quite wipes, the second clip comes in from left, right, top, or bottom, depending on which function you use and pushes the first clip off the screen). If interested, it's on my family website at http://jraigrimmer.tripod.com/video/avs2effects.avs.txt. Just copy & paste the file from your browser into notepad or some other text editor and save... Then you should be able to import() the file into whatever .avs file you're creating and call the functions from there.

They are pretty simple to use, the first parameter of each function is a clip, the second parameter is a clip, and the third parameter is the number of frames you want to use to do the transition from the first to second clip. So HRWIPE(firstclip,secondclip,60) would be a "wipe" where the second scene comes in from the right and pushes the first scene off the left side of the screen, using 60 frames to perform the transition. One caveat: If you use the FHWIPE function you must use at least 10 frames to do the transition; I'd recommend using at least 25-30 frames.

There's a nice tool that allows you to create templates. You can right-click on a file and "send" it to the program to auto create your selected template.
