VirtualDub won't open the script

Rapture** · Post by Rapture** » Sat Jun 30, 2007 9:04 am

Avisynth open failure:
DirectShowSource: I can't determine the frame rate 
of video; you must use "fps" parameter
(D:\Anime\Love Hina\Love Hina 01.avs, line 3)

Now here's my script :

Code: Select all

#ASYNTHER Default (AVISource)
AVISource("D:\Anime\Bleach 5\Bleach Episode 109.avi")
DirectShowSource("D:\Anime\Love Hina\Love Hina - 01.mkv")

Just a simple default script.

Now please,I need a help,not a words like - "use DVDs.." and shit like that. Like hell I can buy online,and in my country I'm glad anime is know at all.

So I'm asking help here.

Thanks in advance.

why are you trying to open two files at once?

for the directshowsource part add in the frames per second...

Well I'm actualy just starting with avisynth so I guess that's my problem ^.^

But I need to open Love Hina file,and when I make it like :

Code: Select all

#ASYNTHER Default (AVISource)
AVISource("D:\Anime\Love Hina\Love Hina - 01.mkv")
DirectShowSource("29.97")

Then it says like :

Code: Select all

Avisynth open failure:
AVIFileSource: couldn't open file
(D:\Anime\Love Hina\Love Hina 01.avs, line 2)

The funnyest thing is that I know why now it's showing like this - because file I'm trying to open is an .mkv extension,not an .avi .. ^.^

Do what it says: add the fps parameter to your DirectShowSource call, specifying the frame rate of the MKV file.

Could you please prepare a simple script for me? Pleasee~~

The fps of the file is 29.97 - and I seem to don't understand very well these script thingies yet -.- OMG now I understand that I'm just a noob ^^

Assuming that your Love Hina MKV is at 29.97fps, your script should look like this:

DirectShowSource("D:\Anime\Love Hina\Love Hina - 01.mkv", fps=29.97)

More info on the parameters to DirectShowSource can be found in the AVISynth documentation on your hard drive.
