AviWriter Filter Exist ?

[StainlessS]

Think I know the answer to this but is there such a thing as an AVIWriter filter akin to ImageWriter, where a frame range could
be written to an AVI file with optional codec settings.

I am aware of Avs2Avi which is command line only I think.

I would not have the first clue how to implement such a filter.

To my knowledge, there has not yet been anyone insane enough to implement such a filter. It's definitely possible to implement, and there's nothing that stops you from doing it, but it's one of the most amazingly terrible ideas I've ever heard coming out of this forum, and that's saying something.

Hope I'm not being too immodest in saying that I often come out with amazing ideas, almost Zen-like really.

Thanx for your reply, just the same.

I've used a filter that does this. Can't remember what it was called, it was a long time ago:

open file
very slow deinterlace and denoise
output to avi
more filters

I needed two versions of the same video, with a shared deinterlace/denoise path but with a few more filters that made them different.
Obviously you'd want an intermediate file after the deinterlace/denoise, but I sped up the process a little by encoding one of the versions directly while Avisynth saved the intermediate file "in the background".

Magic folks :) :) :) :) :)

As it happens I've taken an alternate course, but I'm sure I'll find a use for the filter at some point.

:thanks: very much.

Seems I'm not the only follower of Zen. :D
