AVS WOES :(

Postby gypsy » Sat Nov 16, 2002 2:15 am

Looooo all.

Its me again.

I got some AVS woes and am wondering if anybody can help / explain my problem for me. I want to test the setting in Ermac and Absolute Destiny's guide and see if I can get it right.

My script in my AVS file is as folows.

AVISource("D:\del\ddr7.avi") + DirectShowSource("d:\del\ddr8.mpg").BicubicResize(352,240)

For some reason this doesn't work

Being an ASP programmer I am familier with codeing and started debugging it

When I put in AVISource("D:\del\ddr7.avi") the file plays fine

When I put in DirectShowSource("d:\del\ddr8.mpg").BicubicResize(352,240)

It doesn't work. so I remove the resize like so:
DirectShowSource("d:\del\ddr8.mpg")
and the file plays but with NO sound. It's like I dont have a sound card (which I do).

When I stream 2 avi files together all works fine.

I cant get it to work when I use mpg.

Any help is welcome.

also I cant install the Advanced AVS pack. I've got Win XP installed and it gives me an error on every file it tries to install. it tells me an error opening the file for writing which starts @ the \vdubvilters\d2cleanopt_k7.vdf and it gives an error for every file there after. Can andybody help me in this regard or give me an alternative (manual install, other file, disable some settings...) Thanx

Cheers vir eers

I've been having trouble lately with DirectShowSource, but one of the things that's supposed to fix problems is the "fps" command. Since directshow filters aren't required to tell the decoder what FPS they're playing in, AVISynth needs to know ahead of time otherwise it doesn't know what FPS to play it back as (sometimes).
Change your directshow line to:
DirectShowSource("blahblah.mpg",fps=29.97)
or 25, or 23.976.. or whatever FPS Media Player reports when you try to play it back normally as an MPEG.
Hopefully that'll fix your problem. Also note the only reason the Resize commands are there in my Tutorial is because the files I used as examples were different resolutions (on purpose).

not to mention directshowsource never outputs the sound, only avisource can do that.

WEll then how can I get get mpg files to play with avi files in a working vasion.

If wat you say is true then Ermac's guide isn't all true as the script's aren't suppose to work in the Advanced AVS part.

That's if your right.

I dought someone like Ermac would post a HUGE guide like that one with all correct except that.

Also I am still waiting on any help (if possible) on my second part of the question.

PLLLEEEEAAAASSSEEEEE :roll:
