And if they don't, then check the icons in the system tray for your subtitle muxer filter(s) to make sure you have the subtitles turned on.

Or tell ffdshow to handle subtitles. Then it's assured they'll show up. ffdshow doesn't have VSFilter's Prebuffer issue. It also sets the rendering dimensions of the subs for the actual resolution, so they look correctly scaled (since it's pretty common for ASS subs to not have the resolution set properly, which means it defaults to 640x480). VSFilter relies on you having set the res correctly in Aegisub.

Where exactly can I find the subtitle muxer filers and/or ffdshow? And when I find them, do I just click on them and turn the subtitles on?

I'm still kinda new to this and don't know much about the program files of computers. Thanks for replying and helping me out. =3

Check the tray bar, a green arrow should be there (might be hidden). Right click on it and make sure it's set to show subtitles.

<< I'm starting to hate Windows 7.

Whenever I put in a script to save something in compressed AVI format, the output project has no sound at all. I uninstalled and reinstalled AMVamp again... there is still no sound, even on direct stream copy or uncompressed. I tried it on a regular AVI file and it has sound when I save, but without a script, I can't resize it or anything...

Also when I try to compress with lame mp3, it always says "The audio codec cannot compress the source to the desired.." ect.

Vista never had any of this problem. D=

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies. Sorry if I'm being annoying.

If your script is mpeg2source/ffvideosource/dss2, then you don't have the audio loaded in avisynth. If you need the audio, then you can load it like so:
Code: Select all
audiodub(mpeg2source("blabla.d2v"),wavsource("blabla.wav"))

Generally speaking you can try using ffaudiosource for any non wav audio. Failing that, a good alternative would be bassaudiosource which does however require you to also have the dll for the format you need to open in the plugins directory. Another option is just loading the audio with directshowsource.
If you are loading with avisource and it still is giving you trouble, I suppose you can just try the "audio from other file" option. Also, keep in mind that Lame (at least in my experience) doesn't like when you try to compress your audio to a Hz amount different to the input. You might have exported your audio as 48000Hz and so trying to compress it as 44100Hz would fail.

Thanks for replying.


I'm actually trying to compress an MP4 file to xvid for youtube viewing, so I'm using directshowsource.

I usually only need the audio with directshowsource for files such as mp4 or mkv because I upload clips using virtualdub. Do I still need to use audiodub for directshowsource as well? Thanks again.

I'm also going to assume to use audiodub, I'll need to download the dll, so I'll go look for that.

audiodub is an internal avisynth function, no need for anything extra. As for the plain directshowsource, that actually loads the audio by default by itself.

That's what I thought.

But even when using Directshowsource with a script in virtualdub, the audio is no longer there for some odd reason. I play the mp4 file, and the audio is still intact, but opening the file in virtualdub with a script somehow mutes it. :?
