Wine + Aviynth 2.5 + FFmpeg usage

[AlexeyS]

Hello,

I'd like to use Wine + Avisynth 2.5 on my Linux server. I have no X installed on my server, so I have to use CLI.

I'm new to Wine, have some experience with Avisynth for Windows, FFmpeg CLI. I have few questions.

First of all I need to know how can I install Avisynth? I've alrady installed Wine and FFmpeg. I've downloaded Avisynth Win32 installation .exe file, but it needs X installed.

Second question is how should I use Wine + Avisynth + FFmpeg? I know how to create .avs scripts, I know how to encode video with FFmpeg. I've googled Wine + Avisynth + FFmpeg usage, but found nothing.

I will really apreciate you help.

I'm afraid you will need X to install avisynth - you need an X display to see the installer. You could install it on some other machine which has X and then copy the ~/.wine directory to your server.

Another option would be to not use the installer, but manually copy all the files and create the registry entries.


To encode, use avs2yuv (http://akuvian.org/src/avisynth/avs2yuv/) and pipe the output into ffmpeg.

avs2yuv doesn't need any registry entries, it just needs the avisynth dlls.

avs2yuv doesn't need any registry entries, it just needs the avisynth dlls.But then you need to explicitly load all plugins with full path in the avs script, right?

[akupenguin]

I always explicitly loaded all plugins with relative path.

avs2yuv doesn't need any registry entries, it just needs the avisynth dlls.
So, I can just add two dlls and do not install Avisynth?
