Had a few problems recently with some AVISynth filters not working, I narrowed it down to what filter isn't working as it should and removed it until I'll work out why later

But, I did notice something slightly strange when you remove filters from the filter editor, save and exit, and then check the rebuilder.ini file

If you add any filters, regardless if its on one line or its own line, it saves the filter list fine, but if you remove any filters and resave it, the rebuilder.ini file still has the filter listed in the rebuilder.ini file, but as an empty filter name

I can't honestly say if this could confuse AVISynth in anyway as it may or may not send it an empty filter, but just thought I'd let you know



Example :

Say I use these filters for whatever and this is copied from the rebuilder.ini

AVSFilter01=Cnr2()
AVSFilter02=DeScratch()
AVSFilter03=RemoveDirt()

Now, if I then remove the filters and save and exit it again, you will get this effect from the rebuilder.ini

AVSFilter01=
AVSFilter02=
AVSFilter03=

So for whatever reason its not removing the now empty filter list from the rebuilder.ini when it saves it

REBUILDER.INI and AVISYNTH have no connection. The contents of the INI file are for the exclusive use of DVD Rebuilder.

You can see exactly what is being used by AVISYNTH by looking at the .AVS files that are created during PREPARE.

This isn't a bug -- it's how it works.

Filters and filter use is completely independent of DVD-RB. I certainly can't take responsiblity as to whether they work or not -- as there are many of them written by many authors. I've only added a way for you to add them without having to edit every AVS.

One thing to be careful of is that the filter is written for the same version of AVISYNTH... some are for version 2.0 and others are for 2.5. DVD-RB is designed to use AVISYNTH 2.5.

Thanks, thats what I thought as the filters I use work perfectly, but just thought I'd mention it just in case it was something minor going haywire when saving the rebuilder.ini
