Questions as to script errors

Postby TheJadeArcAngel » Fri Jul 24, 2009 6:15 am

When using AvsP to help create the scripts for files to be loaded into VDM, many come up unrecognized by the program.

EXAMPLE: Decomb_FieldDeinterlace

According to VDM, this script function does not exist. Numerous others do not open as well such as Decimate, TComb, etc...

Is their a list or guide as to how to utilize these scripts, what they do, etc ... ? I've seen a few scripts brought up in guides, but nothing comprehensive ( however I am free to admit there could be such a guide and I have yet to find it <.< )

As always, much thanks for any answers!

Other than decomb_fielddeinterlace (I think it's just FieldDeinterlace,) check to make sure that your plugins are in avisynth's plugins directory (...\Program Files\Avisynth2.5\Plugins\). If they aren't you'll either have to move them to that folder, or manually load the ones you use (LoadPlugin() for .dll files, Import() for .avs and .avsi)

Warpsharp.dll (I hope that's the right one) has been known to cause problems with plugin autoloading (which happens when the .avsi and .dll files are in the plugins folder). So if you find that in there try taking it out, re-opening your script in vdub/mod (or whatever you use) and see if it works.
*Usually there is a different error if autoloading isn't working properly...but it's something to keep in mind

As far figuring out which plugin does what, most times there should be documentation with the plugin that goes over what the purpose is and what settings there are/what they do(either as a README file, a .txt file or an .html file.) If all else fails, google the plugin

decomb_fielddeinterlace tells avisynth to look for the for the fileddeinterlace filter in the decomb plugin. I don't think it's necessary, but it's not a mistake.

As for suggestions, if you need to deinterlace, try to see if you have tdeint() and use it. If you see some not-so-good-looking deinterlace, use needi2() after it and it will be fine. Basically, if you don't have to IVTC, tdeint().nnedi2() should give perfect results most of the time.
