Mpeg2source("c:\_project\Jackal.d2v")
function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename)
{
LoadVirtualdubPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\VirtualDub-1_4\plugins\subtitler.vdf", "_VD_Subtitler")
return clip._VD_Subtitler(1, filename)
}
BicubicResize(480,480,0.75,0.75)
VD_Subtitler(clip ,"c:\_project\subs.ssa")

First, VD filters always only work in RGB mode, so convert to RGB is needed. Second, in order to make AVIsynth use the clip from the last command there is a 'last' function included, so your script should look like this:

LoadPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\DVD2sVCD\MPEG2Dec\mpeg2dec.dll") 
Mpeg2source("c:\_project\Jackal.d2v") 
function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename) 
{ 
LoadVirtualdubPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\VirtualDub-1_4\plugins\subtitler.vdf", "_VD_Subtitler") 
return clip._VD_Subtitler(1, filename) 
} 
BicubicResize(480,480,0.75,0.75) 
ConvertToRGB()
VD_Subtitler(last ,"c:\_project\subs.ssa")
ConvertToYUY2()
ResampleAudio(44100)

or in order to make the VD_S function more general:

LoadPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\DVD2sVCD\MPEG2Dec\mpeg2dec.dll") 
Mpeg2source("c:\_project\Jackal.d2v") 
function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename) 
{ 
LoadVirtualdubPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\VirtualDub-1_4\plugins\subtitler.vdf", "_VD_Subtitler") 
return clip.ConvertToYUY2()._VD_Subtitler(1, filename).ConvertToRGB()
} 
BicubicResize(480,480,0.75,0.75) 
VD_Subtitler(last ,"c:\_project\subs.ssa") 
ResampleAudio(44100)

what is the different between last and clip ?

[hakko504]

'clip' as a variable isn't defined until you give it a value either with '=' or in a function call. 'last' is always defined as the result of the last AVISynth command.

tanks for your advices !

the script DIDN'T Work until i change it a bit

the WORKING Script looks like :

LoadPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\DVD2sVCD\MPEG2Dec\mpeg2dec.dll")
Mpeg2source("c:\_project\Jackal.d2v")
ConvertToRGB()
function VD_Subtitler(clip clip, string filename)
{
LoadVirtualdubPlugin("D:\-= DVD =-\VirtualDub-1_4\plugins\subtitler.vdf","_VD_Subtitler")
return clip._VD_Subtitler(1, filename)
}
BicubicResize(480,480,0.75,0.75)
VD_Subtitler(last ,"c:\_project\subs.ssa")
ResampleAudio(44100)

tanks again !!
