Check your ffdshow Settings:
VFW-Configuration/Decoder/Codecs => RAW Video =>all supported

This is the problem - you have to make sure that avs is available for VFW. Usually, when an old Windows Media Player is able to play the avs, then it works.
Try also suggestion from Sharc.

FRIM is reading frames via VFW AVI-API, and requests final YUV420 stream. The original source is hidden behind this API and VFW/Windows/installed codecs are responsible for proper transformation.

Hi,

FRIM 1.18 is available for download.

I reinstalled ffdshow and set as above. Please can you tell me why this is important. I didn't think fddshow was used.

I have found that the avs file will not play if the converttoyv12 is included. If I remove it it does play but also says it does not recognize avs file.

So there does seem be be something wrong with converttoyv12.

The answer is quite simple:
- When I don't enable it for VFW I get exactly your error messages.
- When I set it to "all supported" it works just fine.

Make sure that you press the 'Accept' button before OK in the ffdshow GUI. Pressing OK only is not effective.

You may also want to try with DirectShowSource("....") in your script instead of AVISource.

trevorjharris · 27th November 2013, 17:20

I have definitly set "all supported" for RAW ffdshow. I tried direct show but that did work in virtualdub but not in wmp. I have uninstalled avisynth and reinstalled ( version 18 September 2013 2.6.0.4). I have also tried an avi file compressed with Lagarith YV12 and that does not work either. I am using windows 7 64bit.

I am using Lagarith as well with avi file and it works for me through Avisynth. You do know by default file compressed with lagarith won't work in avisynth. Also I am using windows 7 64 Ultimate as well.

More info from you would help.

Sharc · 27th November 2013, 18:41

@trevorjharris
Do you have codec packs installed? Filter merit changed?
Maybe you run Codec Tweak Tool and check for broken filters.

When your *.avs plays in any other player (like vdub, mpc, mpc-hc) except wmp then you should not get error messages with FRIMencode, even though your script may not play in wmp. Don't worry about wmp.

trevorjharris · 28th November 2013, 01:52

It works!!!!!

It turns out there are lots of different version of ffdshow out there. I finaly got one from sourceforge which is very recent. Thank you very much to everyone who has helped.

frencher · 28th November 2013, 02:02

@videofan3d
FRIMencode with avisynth 2.5.8 stable version now fixed

Thank's for FIX.

Great, I work my software with this new version.
I just add some features, include new functions (start-end frames). I give my new version this week-end.

It seems that
-avi is missing (Avisynth script is kind of avi-file )
-w -h and -f are then redundant

Well!

Now read an advice about ffdshow setting just few post above

I am finding Frimencode to be rather slow. I have an HP Z800 with 2 xeon X5660 (24 threads), 48 GB of memory, Raid 5 drives and Quatro 5000 graphics card. I am getting about 1.5 frames per second with an mvc encode. I run windows 7 64 bit. I guess the the Intel Media SDK only supports hardware acceleration on it's own gpu's. My graphics card has a load of CUDA gpus. Can Intel Media SDK use Nvidias GP or can I buy a pci card with a supported Intel accelerator on it?

Thanks
