But currently you need Wine to run AviSynth on OS X. It should work pretty well, except for DirectShow input. I haven't tried QTSource. |

I've seen other people recommending Wine but... I dunno, it seems so icky. And I worry about performance, if I encode a feature length blu-ray it's already like 24 hours of rendering time or more. Plus it would make it less portable right? Like Wine would have to be installed on any box that tries to use it? My hope is that if I can put the right codecs into mplayer at build time and make it all static, I can just put the binaries into other Mac boxes and spread out where we do the encoding. Plus I don't think the Chief Computer Person here would like me installing Wine at all, for fear it'll break other things. |

It basically is a loader for PE executable, which otherwise can't load under Linux/Unix, plus a collection of DLL's that provide a Win32-compatible API layer, which is necessary to make Win32 application work under Linux/Unix. Thus the performance hit shouldn't be that big. That plus: You can run Avisynth+avs2yuv under Wine and from there pipe to a "native" encoder process...

There's no point in trying to run Avisynth under Wine for you, since the part you want is DirectShowSource and that doesn't work under Wine anyway. AFAIK the only multipurpose source filter that works reliably in Avisynth under Wine is FFmpegSource, and since you said there's no FFmpeg decoder for your codec, that won't help you at all.
Avisynth 3 has been very dead for years and even when it was "alive" it was mostly vaporware. |

The "-" thing doesn't seem to work though. Works fine in the command line, totally looks great, but I think OSX's bash script must not have the capability, because it freaks out as soon as I put #!/bin/bash in front of it and run it as a .sh script. I guess I'll just stick to the named pipes. |

and it has been integrated since. From a technical standpoint it is nearly the same as using Wine, however it should be simpler from an end-user standpoint since you only need the mplayer/mencoder binary and the Cineform DIrectShow codec binary. In addition MPlayer can use QuickTime codecs, too, but you need to set it up correctly in its codecs.conf and I have some doubts that's something you'll manage easily. |

You might have better luck with the .qtx component, and codecs.conf entries for it should be easier to create (just look for existing ones with "driver qtvideo" as examples), but nobody has done that so far. |
