Hello :)

I don't know if I'm in the right section.
I'm using dss2 from Haali to open AVC with avisynth.
But it fails when the filename contains special chars

For example, this work
v = dss2("D:\HD\test.ts", fps=25)
and this NOT works
v = dss2("D:\HD\tést.ts", fps=25)
The error is :
"Avisynth open failure: Can't open D:\HD\tést.ts: 80070002"

I work with XP SP3
Do you have an idea?

Avisynth in general only supports filenames in the system local codepage; this is not a Haali limitation.

If I use directshowsource, avisource... or whatever else to open a video, it works.
It's the first time I meet this problem.

Is it a charset problem? does it need a conversion? :confused:

Thanks for your reply ;-)
