AVS in CCE

[BlueCup]

Long time user, starting to become forgetful.

I've encoded countless movies in CCE with AVISynth in Windows XP but since upgrading to Windows 7 and getting into x264, I've forgotten what I need to do to have CCE recognize AVS files. They'll come up as the 10sec error message.

The AVS file works in VirtualDub no problem.

Windows 7 x64

FFMPEG is installed.

I have a DV codec installed.

Any help would be appreciated.

What is "the 10sec error message"? What does it say?

Error: source image too small for this resize method, Width=0, Support = 4

You might have ffdshow set to only enable itself in certain applications. This seems to become a larger and larger issue, since the graph will be different depending on which application is actually opening the script.

FFDShow is allowed to be used in all programs.

Script:

DirectShowSource("CF.mkv")
Lanczos4Resize(720,480)

Doesn't matter what script. This only happens in CCE (so far).

check your cce settings ; are you cropping or resizing inadvertently ?

[BlueCup]

The script outputs this:

Video: MPEG2 Video 720x480 (4:3) 29.97fps 6000kbps [Video]

I'm pretty sure there is a setting I missed somewhere in FFDShow concerning this.

Can a mod move this to the AVISynth usage forum? Maybe over there someone ran into this problem and has a way to fix it.

No, as I'm not convinced it's an AviSynth problem. You do know don't you, that you probably shouldn't be using DirectShowSource? Try FFMPEGSource2:

If you continue to have problems I or someone else will move it.

DirectShowSource("CF.mkv")
Lanczos4Resize(720,480)
ConvertToYUY2()

Does this work? If so, you need to install a YV12 codec (and or set the vidc.yv12 register entry when needed).

That worked. Thank you. Like I mentioned, I have been out of the AVISynth game for a bit and am not up to date with the latest filters. DirectshowSource will work in VirtualDub/MeGUI/etc when I encode MPEG4 though.

That did not work in CCE but it will load in VirtualDub with the compressor listed as YUY2.

Thank you both again for helping, I appreciate it.
