ffdshow avisyth and subtitles

[ciper]

As i posted before in another thread.. i tend to get unsynched subs win my movies using VSFilter.dll under avisynth 2.5

is it possible for avisynth to decode the movie using ffdshow like
this (complying that ffdshow is registered to decode those file types, aka mpeg4 and company)?:

DirectShowSource(string filename)

and then setting ffdshown to display subtitles
has anyone tried this ?

I want to serve those movies to CCE .. (converting to SVCD with permanent subs)

[ciper]

well got home .. and started the test .. and
this only works if you feed the script to a media player (subs show up synched), i couldn't made it work with CCE .. dunno why.. :(

the script was like this

DirectShowSource("D:\Movie.avi",23.476,True)
ConvertToYUY2()
LanczosResize(480,448,11,0,618,352)
AddBorders(0,64,0,64)

CCE just stalls !!

What is this: 23.476?

No wonder CCE won't support it...
But it should work in principle, I think...

PS.: I just saw this thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50372&highlight=cce+directshowsource).

It seems that directshowsource works only correct in CCE using avisynth 2.08... Maybe you should try that...

that is the framerate of the source movie ..

DirectShowSource needs it ..

I don't know if i transposed that value to this forum correctly.. but in the script it's correct .. ;)
