very strange crashing bug with avisynth

[Blue_MiSfit]

really strange stuff here folks.

Every OTHER time I open a script in vdub/mpc/etc... the application unexpectedly closes. When the scripts do load, everything looks fine, but then the encoding usually unexpectedly closes.

Also, the last several encodes I made in MeGUI (some sopranos episodes in full res anamorphic x264/naac) have reported an error when attempting to mux the output of x264 - an MP4 file - into Matroska, along with the 5.1 LC-AAC track. The audio tracks are fine, however.

Versions:
AviSynth 2.56
x264 ~ 1 day old not sure of exact rev.
mkvtoolnix 1.6.5
MPC 6.4.9.0
DGIndex 1.4.7b5

Example Script:

LoadPlugin("DGDecode.dll")
LoadPlugin("RemoveGrainSSE3.dll")

mpeg2source("405.d2v")

crop( 8, 8, -8, -8)

removegrain(mode=5)


x264 settings:
deblocker -1,-1
2pass
all 8x8
subpel 6
trelis 1
keyframes 240/24
quant matrix: M4G_High_Detail_AVC.cfg
3 bframes, temporal prediction, all options enabled
5 mixed refs

Any ideas? I'm rather confused by it...

Did you try first taking everything out of the main plugin folder so that nothing autoloads? If it then works fine, you'll be closer to finding the culprit.

I have nothing in my C:\Program Files\Avisynth\Plugins folder, except NicAudio.dll. I remember putting it here for some reason...

I wonder if this is actually my auto load directory. When I comment out the LoadPlugin calls from my script, it still plays, which indicates that it's auto loading from my plugin storage directory.

Can you manually specify a directory to autoload in avisynth?


changed the plugin directory in MeGUI and this fixed the problem. I had to move some basic plugins like DirectShowSource and ColorMatrix to the new directory (c:\program files\avisynth\plugins), but all seems stable with opening avs files now. I will see if this fixes the encoding issues.



Yeah everything works perfectly. Similar things have happened to me before I dont know why I didnt remember.. Thanks for the prod foxyshadis....
