Use DSS2 without installing Haali?

There is no need to register anything in this case. Besides,
I recommend renaming the file to "avssmod.dll" or something
(in order to avoid confusion) and
preferring the manual "LoadPlugin('Path-To\avssmod.dll')" to the common practice of storing a ton of files in the default Avisynth plugins folder.

Hmm, I could do that, but it doesn't load properly in MEGUI. If I try and create an avs script using MEGUI the radio to tick "Prefer DSS2 over DSS" is greyed out. How would I get DSS2mod to work properly with MEGUI? Thanks!

I don't use GUI's, but you could try moving the original avss.dll to a "_backup" folder and then rename the mod to "avss.dll" (the exact same name as the original) so as to replace the original.

MeGUI should be able to detect that, without fancy registering.
If it's still greyed out, then it probably does a hashcheck against the original or something to verify that the original is there.
When I used to use GUI's, I found that (sometimes) that would do the trick. If not, you'd have to ask the devs for support for non-official builds of avss.dll (provided the licencing agreements allow them to; again, GUI's and Haali is not my forte~)

You could probably get a better answer in a MeGUI thread.

The title for this thread is misleading as it's clear now that your sole problem is with MeGUI and not avisynth in general.

Sounds good. I will create a new one in the encoder GUIs subforum. Thanks for all the help guys!

Fancy or not fancy but work with reg keys:

Question: so what exactly are those registry keys doing (and how do I use them)?

I.e. If I want to have Haali installed but ONLY used for the sole purpose for MeGUI's DSS2 option, what do I do with them? (Note: I am using KCP as my codec pack and I manually installed Haali.)

Thanks!

I see this dss2 mod has been recently updated.
There is a way to contact the dev to ask if he can add 10/16bit output too?

AFAIK the latest official build is still the one from this post:

There also is a newer test build:

And of course you can PM forclip for any questions you have...
