Hello,

I'm capturing with Virtualdub 1.4.9.3 in Picvideo M-JPEG 3.0.0.11, and I select YUY2 as the pixel depth.

However when I use the 'info()' command with the captured files in AviSynth 2.5, it says it is YV2. ¿Am I doing something wrong? ¿Is this normal? ¿Should I try a different MJPEG codec?

Try AviSource(..., pixel_type="YUY2").

btw, it's YV12.

Thanks, that worked.

I did a diff between a YV12 and a YUY2 frame, and the differences are really small. Does it really pays to use YUY2 rather than YV12? Anyway, I will stick to YUY2, any improvement, despite how small it is, is good.
