View Full Version : DirectshowSource() and Vista?
Anybody else having problems with Avisynth scripts which contain "DirectshowSource()" in Windows Vista? If I try to play the script my WMP11 crashes but Media Player Classic plays it fine. Other MS apps also seem to crash. This works perfectly on a XP machine..
Avisynth 2.56a (instead of 2.57) seems to work better but causes other problems....

I'm on Vista, using modified 2.57 (MT patch) and DSS .avs work for me in WMP and MPC. I did have some problems before installing some updates (I don't know which), where loading Avisynth would randomly crash things. After some auto-updates though it just started working.
Sorry if I couldn't be more specific, though you could check and make sure you have all possible updates.

Thanks for trying to help, I appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this. I'm on Vista Ultimate and I have all the updates, well only the critical ones I guess. My Avisynth doesn't randomly crash though, it's every time in WMP but never in MPC.
Good to know it works for someone though, I'll try the 2.57 MT-version and see if that helps.
Thanks again!
Update: Avs 2.57 MT made no difference...
If I use directshowsource.dll from 2.56a everything works fine... what's changed!?
