Another lost newbie

Postby neoXgeo » Sun Oct 05, 2008 9:18 am

Hello -well, during the AMVapp installation test i keep getting the same error:

mplayer2.exe -Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry RunDllW could not be located in the dynamic link library msdxm.ocx

mplayer2.exe has stopped working -(windows vista)

I'm not sure whats the problem, DVDdecrypter and VirtualDubMod work fine.

Thanks for your time.

The amvapp tests are known to fail on vista, but the actual programs should work well without any problem. Don't worry, there's no actual problem.

avs files will only play in media player classic, if I remember right. Try putting it into Virtual Dub Mod and see if it works.

You open VDubMod, click File, click Open, then open up the script.

ok moving on to
Kevin Caldwell's "Believe" Test

Org. guide:

Now within this text file put the following lines making sure to change the location of the file to your own:
DirectShowSource("D:\believe.mpg")
BicubicResize(320,240)

here is my Avisynth script
DirectShowSource(C:\Users\JER-88\Downloads\New Folder\believe.mpg)
BicubicResize(320,240)

i got this file location from video properties -but Vdubmod wont play this, i know there is something wrong with the script, again i cant figure this out

sorry for all the trouble guys -this is really complicated :x
i feel like an idiot now :cry:

You need quotes around the file path.

DirectShowSource("C:\Users\JER-88\Downloads\New Folder\believe.mpg")

That sounds like another vista problem - preventing file access through an executing program because it's in a protected folder mayhaps?

Download FFmpegSource, unarchive it, drop the .dll in your AviSynth Plugins folder, and then use that instead of DirectShowSource.

Code: Select all
ffmpegsource("C:\Users\JER-88\Downloads\New Folder\believe.mpg")


That will only open the video stream. If you need the audio with it, change it to:

Code: Select all
ffmpegsource("C:\Users\JER-88\Downloads\New Folder\believe.mpg", atrack=-1)
