I would imagine that problems may be caused if AviSynth doesn't want to autodetect TIVTC, which might be why the d2v parameter needs to be there for TFM to work for you (I'm assuming TIVTC not autoloading is the reason you're using LoadPlugin - as that's the only reason it should be there).

The way I understand it, the "d2v=" parameter in TFM is there so that TFM doesn't just look at the video footage it's being given, it also looks at the D2V file itself and gets hints from it on how to match the fields properly.

The d2v parameter is essential, for instance, if you have DVD footage that exhibits illegal field order switching (Excel Saga, Love Hina); TFM will then create a fixed D2V file for you that solves the problem and tell you where it is so that you can now change TFM to call the fixed D2V file instead.

let me repeat myself. The files made using DGIndex DON'T WORK in virtual dub.

that's why you have to use avisynth to frameserve the .d2v files to another program (in your case vdub)

Sorry I said it wrong. Aparrently the file made from DGIndex is mess up because the .avs I created will not open up in virtual dub.

can you post the text of the error you are getting?
and can you post your script?

Error:
Avisynth open failure:

avisynth file:

I know this error (I think it's caused by using different versions of dgindex and dgdecode, or trying to use dgdecode.dll with d2v files you made with dvd2avi)...try getting the latest version of dgdecode.dll and dgindex (and put dgdecode.dll into avisynth's plugins directory).

if you used dvd2avi you have to use mpeg2dec3.dll

I have no idea what any of that means or how to do it.

also I need to check if the settings are correct on DGIndex because I might have changed something. These are my settings now.

video-
- iDCT Alogorithm (Skal SSE MMX)
-field opperation (ignore pulldown flags)
audio-
-output method (demux all tracks)
options-
-use full paths
-use directdraw overlay

options I have are similar.
I honor pulldown flags and correct field order (people, don't yell at me if they do similar things, program default)

alright, to get to the plugins directory go to my computer and double-click on your main drive.
then double-click program files.
look for avisynth and double-click it.
you should now see a folder named "plugins", open it.

(if you don't see dgdecode.dll in that plugins folder)
now go to start, find and search for dgdecode.dll (use the documents, files and folders option for searching)
once you find it, click and drag to avisynth's plugins folder
