In some programs (like Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player) video played through AviSynth script contains both visual and audible glitches and often AviSynth crashes altogether with an "exception caught" message. This problem does not seem to affect VirtualDub though. In VirtualDub the playback exhibits "stuttering" at regular intervals.

AviSynth 2.57 here, codecs in question are Huffyuv and XviD. Affects even the simplest scripts with only "AVISource" in them.

Any ideas?

No, I don't overclock. Also, my system seems to be stable (after motherboard replacement and turning NCQ off for disk that does not support it, that is ;-)

Does a 2nd script with just "DirectShowSource("your_other_script.avs")" played in VirtualDub exhibit the same problems.

What rev M$ Media Player do you have installed? What OS (XPsp2, W2K)?
