Based on a question in the VideoHelp forum (https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/369913-StaxRip-support-thread/page8#post2507411):

According to the ASS specs and the Aegisub docs (http://docs.aegisub.org/3.2/ASS_Tags/#drawing-commands), tags for vector drawing elements do exist as well. Does any AviSynth plugin support them, and if not, how may one get them rendered into a video via AviSynth, if possible at all?

(xy-)vsfilter and assrender support them. I don't even know any other ASS plugins for AviSynth ...

Ok, I can reproduce the issue with the VSFilterMod (https://github.com/HomeOfVapourSynthEvolution/VSFilterMod) variant shipping with StaxRip. If he switches to "normal" xy-vsfilter or assrender it should be fine.

I hope they don't mind floating-point coordinates, like in the sample linked in the mentioned thread.

Author says to use newer fork instead: https://github.com/sorayuki/VSFilterMod
(But I don't see any binary there and I imagine vsfilter isn't trivial to build.)
