Seekable VC-1 source in Avisynth

[csd79]

Hi

Is there a way to load VC-1 source into avisynth so that one can cut segments from it? I tried this with DirectShowSource(), but it kill VDMod. I also thought of converting the whole thing with a lossless codec and use that as source, but with X264 lossless mode it would take aprox. 300-400GByte which means I's have to buy a new hard drive. The video is 2 hours long, 1080p, and I'd like to basicly recut it.

Any suggestions?
thanks

Try muxing the vc-1 raw es into avi with vc12avi and load the avi file in VD.
This way you can direct-stream-copy the part you want.

My problem is how can I cut this VC-1 video in AVISynth. The process will involve some overlay stuff and *many* Trim()s, and I think I cannot do that using plainly VD. I'll try vc12avi thou, as soon as I get home.

Thank you
