Call it as ffvideosource instead of ffmpegsource.

Sounds like codec issues, Do you have CCCP/Halli installed?

Go into ffdshow VFW configuration, and on the Decoder page, set Raw video to 'all supported'. Voila.

Or install the Helix YUV codecs, but ffdshow is easier since most people already have it.

Setting Raw video to "all supported" didn't work but installing the Helix YUV did. Thank you.

Could I jump into this thread as I am having difficulty figuring out the ffmpegsource myself? I don't easily understand these things but I have managed to grasp avisynth just enough for my purposes.

I would like to either open mkv files directly in Premiere Pro or at least in Vdubmod. I found that I could use directshowsource but the lag is horrible and it seems ffmpegsource is recommended so I hoped to try that. I have downloaded the files as doom9 directed in this post. I couldn't find a readme file or clear installation guide without seeing a book of technical stuff so I've been gleaming what I could find out from forum posts. I'm growing quite frustrated having wasted most of my evening on this with no luck.

I'm not quite sure what all of the files downloaded are for. I paid more attention to the ffms2-r292 download and went to drop the ffms2.dll, FFMS2.avsi, and just in case the ffmsindex.exe in my avisynth plugins folder. Don't know what the .exe file was for as nothing opens if I click on it. Low and behold it I already had ffms2.dll files in my plugins folder... but they seemed a bit different so I moved the existing ones out of the way to replace with the ones just downloaded.

Anything else I can do to get it to work? I'm using the following code.

Code: Select all
FFVideoSource("E:/Anime/Kurei-nai/Kurenai - 01.mkv")


I basically get, in either Vdub or premiere....

Avisynth error:
FFVideoSource: Can't open "E:/Anime/Kurei-nai/Kurenai - 01.mkv"

Code: Select all
DirectShowSource("E:/Anime/Kure-nai/Kurenai - 01.mkv")
works so I know the problem must lie withe ffmpegsource :(

First thing to try: change all those slashes to backslashes. :P

XD Weird it still seemed to work with the slashes for directshow.

Edited the slashes... still says no function named ffmpegsource. I'm thinking it's not installed or the right files aren't where they need to be.

Maybe I'm having avisynth problems in general. I tried to use MPEG2Source to open a d2v file in premiere (just trying it out, I normally cut out the clips I want as avi files) but it told me something was inconsistent with the dgdencode.dll files... which I don't see what's wrong. Maybe I've been downloading codecs and plugins from too many places trying to get stuff to work XD

There are multiple formats for d2v, each version of mpeg2source can only use the compatible d2v file. The d2v file must be made with the indexer packaged with your mpeg2source.
Slashes can be in either direction, avisynth handles converting to Windows paths for you.
You don't have FFMS2 installed properly or you are not loading it properly.

And telling people not to use something without giving an explanation makes you look stupid.
Once again, it gets the job done, and it is good enough.

Vdubmod has been the standard recommendation in the site's most referenced guide since 2005, and the newest update to that guide was completed less than a year ago. Change doesn't happen so quickly.

Perhaps you would like to enlighten the rest of us on the advantages of vdub over vdubmod keeping in mind that mkv support is a non-issue as the standard advice here (besides buying the dvds instead) is to use DSS/FFMPEGSource
