AviSynth and TV Wonder

[luders]

I am running XP and I have of course had the scrambled TV problem until starting clean with the Beta MMC and drivers, however, AviSynth never works together with any of that installed. Anyone had this problem and solved it. -Aaron

Could post any description of your problem? any error messages?

Well I was thinking it was really pointless to try and discribe unless you had the problem. Basically you install the TV Wonder stuff and try and play a AVS file, it loads and says it is playing while the time signature remains at 0:00. I believe it is only when trying to use aviSource in the script.

Have you tried playing AVS scripts before installing your wonder? Because it would have shown you the same result.

From the avisynth docs:

AVISource(string filename[,...], bool "audio", string "pixel_type")

...

The pixel_type parameter allows you to choose the output format of the decompressor. Valid values are "YUY2", "RGB32" and "RGB24". If omitted, avisynth will use the first format supported by the decompressor (in order: YUY2, RGB32, RGB24). This parameter has no effect if the video is in an uncompressed format (YUY2, RGB32 or RGB24), because no decompressor will be used in that case.

Examples:

...
AVISource("cap.avi",true,"RGB32") # request RGB32 decompression

or make sure to use ConvertToRGB() at the end of the AVS script if you are using YUY2 only filters...

Well it works great before I install the Wonder. Does that answer what you were saying or should I try some of that?
