As of now I'm pretty sure theres no such thing as a Mac compatible version of AVIsynth, but if anyone knows of any software SIMILAR to Avisynth or something like that, it would be most helpful if you'd point me in its direction.

I'm not a mac user, nor have I used this program...but this is the best thing I could find for an avisynth substitute

Just a shot in the dark, here, but something that I noticed was that Avidemux can do H.264 (and if my assumption is correct that Quant 0 = Lossless mode; it's been a long time since I read about that) then it might theoretically be possible to encode H.264 Lossless within AVI - but only after disabling the features which cause problems in putting it in AVI, mainly anything to do with B-frames and Reference frames - and then use the Perian Quicktime components to open it via an editing program on a Mac. Someone with a Mac would have to test it, though.

I'm definitely going to try that. I'll get back to you within the week. Isn't H.264 lossy by definition though?
