Limit to number of files in AVISynth script?

[droopy928gt]

I've just stumbled upon an issue which I don't seem to be able to solve. Been looking through the documentation, forum and FAQ's but can't find an answer.

I've got rather a large capture which consists out of 77, #00 to #76, 2GB captures. Im trying to combine them in a AVISynth script but ALWAYS when openening the script, the last frame served by AVISynth is the last frame from file #74. It won't go over to file #75 and onwards.

The script used for testing is similar to using print "Hello" in Basic. Can't be simpler.

AMGIsBorn = SegmentedAviSource("I:\AMGIsBorn\AMGIsBorn.avi")

Do you guys know if there is a maximum file number or some other limitation when using AVISynth scripts. Or am I just asking a stupid and obvious one??!!

Thanks for any input.

Best regards,

Leon

Thanks very much Neuron2,

I did not find these posts. Had been searching for number of files, file number limit, segment limits and a few others. I hate the not looking just asking attitude, so I'm feeling pretty embarassed right now. Just goes to show that searching is an art in itself. :o :o

I went from the assumption of 100 files, being 0 to 99, and thus was puzzled by the max of 75 files.

I'll have a go at your suggestion there regarding grouping and then joining. I'm also thinking of trying to merge a few 2GB chunks into 4GB chunks using Vdub's save AVI option with direct stream copy set. It's only 2 files I need to ditch.

Thanks and again sorry.

Regards,

Leon

I put "segmentedavisource 75" into google. The forum search is, shall we say, suboptimal.
