Avisynth 1.03 -> Virtualdub -> CCE?

[Airw0lf]

I'm wondering if anyone has had much success opening avisynth scripts in virtualdub, applying some vdub internal filters in virtualdub and then frameserving to CCE.

I would like to get this system working because then I can use a .avs script to splice avis (you can only do aligned splices in avisynth, virtualdub doesn't support it) and make use of virtualdub internal filters before encoding in CCE.

In my tests so far, I always end up with a AviRead() crash in CCE. This always takes place on one particular frame. Has anyone had a similar experience?

My avis are fine because I can encode them through vdub or avs or directly without any trouble at all...

I think that there's a VirtualDub filter package which have been ported to AviSynth.. might have been Donald's work but I don't remember correctly. Use Google and you'll find it.

Frameserving twice is a bad idea and would be very slow IMHO.

Yeah I agree, frameserving twice is NOT good at all. But it was kinda a last resort. I was semi-expecting weird problems anyway. I'll take a look around for the ported filters. Thanks.

Actually, I am in the process of porting my VirtualDub filters (plus new functionality) to Avisynth. So far only decombing (deinterlacing, inverse telecine, field matching) and Hue/Sat/Bright/Cont have been ported. Let me know what your urgent needs are. That will help me determine the order to port the filters.

The only filter that I would need now would probably be smart resize, simply based on my gut feeling that resizing using the avisynth filters doesn't seem to come out too well.
