Compiling AviSynth

[WarpEnterprises]

We should mention here what sh0dan wrote as CVS comment:

2003/9/18 16:2:48 - Additional compilation requirements: DirectX Directshow baseclasses, found in the samples directory - add to both library and header directory.

With "samples directory" the directory

DXF\DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses

in the DX-SDK is meant ( I was desparately seeking in the CVS directories :) )

But anyhow: it won't compile, there are many warnings and some LINKER errors:

strmbase.lib(dllentry.obj) : error LNK2005: _DllGetClassObject@12 bereits in main.obj definiert
strmbase.lib(dllentry.obj) : error LNK2005: _DllCanUnloadNow@0 bereits in main.obj definiert

strmbase.lib(dllentry.obj) : error LNK2001: Nichtaufgeloestes externes Symbol "int g_cTemplates" (?g_cTemplates@@3HA)


Any ideas? (I added the paths of the mentioned .h and .cpp files as suggested)

[sh0dan]

Yeah - I had troubles with that one too. I seem to remember I fould an old strmbase.lib (strmbasd.lib in debug mode) somewhere else in my library path. Be sure to only have the one in

DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\Debug

and

DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\Release

referenced, and be sure to add both to your Tools/Options/Directories/Libraries I hate the black voodoo with C compilers - especailly linker errors. Unfortunately I can only say that it also took me a few hours to get this compiling on my second machine.
:angry:

[WarpEnterprises]

I must be blind but I don't find the LIBs, only .H and .CPP.
Could you put those LIBs somewhere,pls. (if it is not against some rules).

[sh0dan]

You need to compile the project in the BaseClasses project in Release and debug mode - this will produce the libraries.

[WarpEnterprises]

has someone else compiled a recent AviSynth version?
I made those libs but still no luck.
now it complains about missing baseclasses in ctlutil.h and many more things.

I can understand that sh0dan can't remember all steps if it is working but everbody else should have the same problem.
I made a clean setup of my system and the problems were quite the same.

Yes I've compiled but with some difficulties too.

select in tools - Directories -Library files -
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\RELEASE

when you compile in release mode...etc

I've got a usefull dll but I've still a lot of warnings;
mainly with avisynth_c.cpp
35 warning C4273:: inconsistent dll linkage.dllexport assumed.

2 MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\

and

avisynth_c.cpp(301) : warning C4700:
local variable 'val' used without having been initialized.

I've searched in google for these warnings and there are a lot of information.
But I must confess I was too lazy to read and look for the solution. And probably
it is a basic matter I don't know

Once more I hope sh0dan could come in our help to understand why all these warnings.
Oh! THANKS AGAIN sh0dan ! for last released !

Thanks in advance ARDA

[WarpEnterprises]

With the latest CVS I cannot even get to linking.
- I compiled the strmbase.lib / strmbasd.lib
- I added the directories to VC
- compiling avi_source.cpp works
- compiling directshow_source.cpp won't work, the first errors come from the <streams.h> include:


c:\programme\microsoft sdk\samples\multimedia\directshow\baseclasses\wxutil.h(530) : error C2061: Syntaxfehler : Bezeichner 'DWORD_PTR'
c:\programme\microsoft sdk\samples\multimedia\directshow\baseclasses\ctlutil.h(437) : error C2504: 'IBasicVideo2' : Basisklasse undefiniert


as if there is some header files missing.

Am I right that at this point the LIB is not even used?

Yes "avisynth_c" added a bunch of warnings. I think I'll have a look soon - and also to fix the crash-on-unload with SmartDecimate. None of the warnings mean anything.

The Directshow warning (_imp__InterlockedIncrement) is unavoidable, but doesn't mean anything. I guess it could be avoided using a #pragma.

@WarpE: I haven't experienced that problem (and you're right - only the header files are used at this stage). I sound quite incredible that it doesn't know what DWORD_PTR is.

[WarpEnterprises]

It works!

Here is what I did.

- there are some .H files in the MS Visual Studio AND the MS SDK directory, with the ones in the SDK beeing the newer and intended.

- I removed the ...Visual Studio... dirs from the header directories (extras/options...) but some .H-files are NOT present in the SDK

==>
There have to be BOTH entries but the SDK paths and the path to ...SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG must come BEFORE the ...Visual Studio paths (for both compiling strmbasd.lib AND AviSynth) to have higher search priority.
Then all you have to do is hoping that all newer .H and .LIB are present and no old one is accidently taken.

My paths are then:

header directories:
C:\Programme\Microsoft SDK\Include
c:\PROGRAMME\MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\INCLUDE
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\INCLUDE (needed. What is MFC in AviSynth?)
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\ATL\INCLUDE (not needed for AviSynth)

library directories:
C:\Programme\Microsoft SDK\Lib
c:\PROGRAMME\MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\LIB
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\LIB (not needed for AviSynth)

Hope this helps and is reproducable.

[scmccarthy]

WarpEnterprises wrote two interesting questions that were never answered as far as I can tell on this thread. Which runtime library is the right one for a plugin / does it matter / when and how? and What is MFC I use cl.exe /MT to link with libcmt.lib and link.exe /NODEFAULTLIB:msvcrt /NODEFAULTLIB:libc which prevents linking with msvcrt.lib and libc.lib. Otherwise avisynth wants to link with all three versions of the common runtime library. The alternative is to use /FORCE:MULTIPLE to force linking with mutiple versions of the lib functions.

If I compile strmbase.lib with /MT, my linker wants me to use the same threading scheme with avisynth.

Is this right, or do different modules within avisynth need to link with different versions of the runtime?

I would like to see this sticky continue to grow. New compilation issues that crop up on every new version of avisynth. Yet nothings been discussd on this thread since lase November. For instance, I had to comment out two lines in the code to get it to compile://GetSampleEnumPins::GetSampleEnumPins(GetSample* _parent, int _pos); //HRESULT __stdcall GetSampleEnumPins::Next(ULONG cPins, IPin** ppPins, ULONG* pcFetched); in directshow_source.h. I don't believe it matters whether you comment it out of the header or the code file, only that it does not get stated twice.

Finally, are the two files avisynth.opt and avisynth.ncb somehow nessesary to properly compile avisynth? Since I only use the commandline tools, cl.exe, ml.exe, rc.exe, and link.exe, I am not sure whether those files are being used in my compilation. This works fine for standalone filters, but I am still not sure if it works for avisynth itself.

I tried to compile avs 2.54 (and suceeded after a ...long time)

If that can help other people,
I'll resume what the thread is saying,
more or less...

(maybe someone should put the infos in the doc?)

relevant information for compiling with VC6

* Install visual studio (containing VC6)

edit: warning the links are for the US version of Visual Studio,
if you are using a non US version, get the specific version...
* Install Visual Studio SP5 (130mb)
http://download.microsoft.com/download/vstudio60ent/SP5/Wideband-Full/WIN98Me/EN-US/VS6sp5.exe
* Install Visual C++ Processor Pack (1mb)
check http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60ent/Update/6/W9X2KXP/EN-US/vcpp5.exe for links

EDIT: with 2.55 version, the following is no longer needed...

* Install Platform SDK (feb 2003) (31mb for core sdk - minimal)
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/

* Install DirectX 8.1 SDK (160mb)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=33706

And then you are all good for the needed download...

* Recompile \<DXSDK directory >\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\baseclasses.dsp
in order to avoid a nasty bug (in release & debug mode)

* Go in VC++, Tools, options, Directories :

There check .h (headers) section:

a working path order is :
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES
...DXSDK\INCLUDE
...MICROSOFT SDK\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\ATL\INCLUDE


next step go in Library :
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\RELEASE
...DXSDK\lib
...Microsoft SDK\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\LIB

then you might be able to compile it :)


I hope it will help somebody...

[sh0dan]

Just wanted to add a note, that from 2.55 it should be considerably easier to compile AviSynth, as the DirectShow stuff has been moved to a separate plugin.

This eliminates all DirectX stuff and probably the Platform SDK.

You can do a CVS checkout if you want the new code.

[esby]

Just checked with removing PSDK and not installing DirectX 8.1 SDK here...
2.55 compiled fine on this computer.

Nice work sh0dan :)

esby

[scmccarthy]

I thought I'd add something here, I can confirm that the DXDSK and the Platform SDK are not needed anymore. Until now, all we needed from the processor pack was ml.exe for the assembler module. I didn't need it because I used the one from the DDK SDK that I have. There are three header files that are needed now that were not needed before and since they have no corresponding libs all I needed to solve the problem was download them from the internet. They are Intel files emmintrin.h, xmmintrin.h, and mmintrin.h.

Maybe they are part of the Intel compiler, but in that case a lot more people would have trouble.

Normally there would be a corresponding link error following an include error and this would not be enough, but in this case it is. As the names imply they probably define types that make it easier to use mmx or sse2 without out writing in assembler.

This all started because audio.cpp now includes emmintrin.h.

Stephen

[esby]

Getting the processor pack is not really a problem,
Its size is inferior to 2mb.

What was dreadful was to get DSDK pack, just to compile one filter...
(and if people did like i did, getting the wrong version pack, it's worse :)

esby

PS: I have no intel compiler installed here, so ... :)

[Si]

The processor pack is the stumbling block for those of us without access to the bigs boys version of MS VC++.

But then again, maybe if we can't pay then we shouldn't be allowed to play in the big game stakes :p

regards
Simon

[esby]

damn, so true...
never noticed this 'block' indeed...

then I am wondering if providing the missing file(s) is legal or not...

esby

[scmccarthy]

After a successful compile, I get an error when trying to play the avs file. Is there a step missing when installing AviSynth.dll or is it a bad compile?

Stephen

[stickboy]

Did you compile the Release or Debug configuration? I had trouble with the Debug configuration.

P.S. I get a linker warning : all references to 'WINMM.dll' discarded by /OPT:REF

[dandragonrage]

I just checked out the CVS code. It compiles with VS6. I want to use VS7 (.Net) because the compiler optimizes much better, but I get errors with it.

[dandragonrage]

It compiles file? Does avisynth\distrib\bin\avisynth.dll exist, then?

[scmccarthy]

Oh yes, but if I do the last two lines where it copies the two files to system32, I get an error when I try an avs file.

Stephen

[Bidoche]

@dandragonrage

All your missing externals come from the standard template library which must be included with .NET. (as with every C++ compiler)

I do not know if you have to link it as a lib or if mere includes will do.
Anyway you can try :
#include <string>
#include <stdexcept>

[dandragonrage]

None of that worked. I also tried point VC.net to the lib directory of VC6 and copying the linker library include stuff over but that also did not help.

[scmccarthy]

@dandragonrage

You are not linking with the C runtime library due to the conflict with libc.lib. Using NODEFAULTLIB would get rid of the error messages, but I am not certain if that would solve the problem since it does not work for me.

Stephen

[dandragonrage]

Using nodefaultlib gets rid of the warning but doesn't help the errors.

[scmccarthy]

@dandragonrage,

Maybe the lib environment variable points to a version of libcmt.lib that is incompatible with the includes you use.

Or maybe the version of C runtime library you link with is not the same one that SoundTouch.lib links to. Really the second answer is more likely.

Stephen

[ada2001]

I have the same compile errors as dandragonrage. I'm using VSNet 2003. I've tried (of course) using the /NODEFAULTLIB:C option to no avail. Has anyone else been able to get a working VS .NET 2003 build?

Thanks!

[ada2001]

When I compiled the SoundTouch sources using VS .NET 2003 and then using the subsequent SoundTouch.lib to build AviSynth CVS, I get the following errors:

I'm not terribly familiar with VS anything, so anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks!

[Bidoche]

did you try to not link vs msvcprt.lib ?


It's weird anyway, as far as my understanding goes, I thought that STL code would not be exported from any lib...

I suggest you try replacing VC7.1 standard library by STLPort from www.stlport.org (download and set it in your include path) and recompile.

[ada2001]

Yeah, it's deeply wierd. I had tried unlinking msvcprt.lib and it really messed things up so I figured the previous errors were probably easier to fix. When I get some time, I'll start looking at this again.

[Bidoche]

I think I got the solution this time :

Some guy posted about the same probleme in the forums at www.stlport.org.
He finally fixed it by creating a empty project and importing his files into it, rather than using a conversion from VC6.

[scmccarthy]

I can compile AviSynth, but VirtualDubMod gives me an avi import filter error and windows media player complains the class is not registered.

Stephen

[Wilbert]

I finally installed the professional edition (and the rest of the stuff). But, I also can't get it to work. When compiling I get the following message

What am I doing wrong?

[stickboy]

I've been getting the same problem trying to build the Release version...

[IanB]

@WilbertWhat am I doing wrong?Nothing! The release SoundTouch library has been built without symbols (DAMN!!):angry: You will have to build release avisynth.dll without symbols until some kind soul rebuilds it and puts it in CVS.

Look in the [link] tabpane of properties/settings turn off symbols:mad:

IanB

[Wilbert]

Sorry, I can't find that option :D

Somewhere under Project -> Settings -> C/C++ -> Preprocessor -> check "Undefine all symbols"

I guess that's the wrong one, because that doesn't work.

[stickboy]

In MSVC6:
Project > Settings > Link > Debug, uncheck "Debug info".

[scmccarthy]

A thought, must AviSynth be compiled only as a debug release? Does it work as a regular release?

Stephen

[stickboy]

IIRC the debug DLL is couple megabytes in size... the release DLL is only several hundred kilobytes.

Clearly the release version is the one that's distributed.

Awhile back, though, I couldn't get the debug DLL working... maybe that's what you're thinking of?

[Wilbert]

Just crab the latest source from CVS. It works now (release build) without doing anything special. Sh0dan updated the project file a few days ago.

[scmccarthy]

I continue to get the same Windows Media Player error:Class not registered (Error=80040154)
Stephen

[tritical]

I can confirm it is much easier to get AviSynth to compile now vs. the last time I tried :), especially with vs.net. It worked pretty much straight away, converted to vc 7 project on load (first time that has never screwed up for me :D). Few errors from the soundtouch lib, I didn't try IanB's suggestion for it but just compiled the soundtouch lib myself and everything worked fine. No errors on compiling avisynth, but 179 warnings... mainly all small stuff like type conversion - possible loss of data, no emms at end of asm function, etc... That was using vs.net 2002, directx 9 sdk, platform sdk, but I guess the directx sdk and platform sdk are no longer needed.

[tolgae]

I am trying to compile 2.5.5 sources (and I tried the old ones, the same error happens). I am getting errors in the convert_a.asm file. All of them look similar to this one:

convert_a.asm(258) : error A2070: invalid instruction operands
YUV2RGB_INNER_LOOP(8): Macro Called From
YUV2RGB_PROC(33): Macro Called From

I am using VC7.1. Seeing the recent posts that mentions the SDKs are not necessary anymore, I did not install anything extra. Probably it is something very simple but even after reading all the posts in this thread, I am not seeing it (I am no good with asm).

Any help is appreciated.

[esby]

afik,
people succeeded compiling avs 2.55 with vc6.x, not with vc7.X.

esby

The post right above mine (from tritical) indicates it is possible to compile with VC7.x. I was hoping a step-by-step guide on how to do it, like

1- Install VC7.x
2- Download source.
3- Download ??? (if necessary)
4- Open project.
5- ???
6- Build

[tritical]

It is definitely possible, just did it last night :D. It should work fine as long as you have the Platform sdk installed. I'm not really sure if you need the directx sdk anymore or not (I think not). But for me it works fine just doing this:

1.) download source
2.) open workspace and convert to vc 7 project
3.) set configuration to release
4.) build project

EDIT: About needing the platform sdk, I'm not sure if you do or don't. I have it installed and the above process works fine for me.

[WarpEnterprises]

the DX SDK is not necessary. It was needed only for DirectShowSource which is now a plugin.
