Huffyuv clip won't load (2.5)

[Stabmaster-Arson]

I've scoured the forums, I've searched the forums, to no avail. I have just capped a huffyuv, and it won't open using avisynth 2.5
"The script's return value was not a video clip."
Heres the script

avisource=("x:\capture.avi")

Is there somehting obvious am missing?

For giggles, I tried
ConvertToYUY2()
And I get the error
"Avisynth open failure:
Script error: Invalid arguments to function "ConvertToYUY2()"
(X:test.avs, line 2)

hi Stabmaster-Arson,

Have you tried to at least load your AVI directly into vdub ??

If vdub opens w/out issues..
Then, next try and scann through your whole AVI clip in vdub.
..to see if vdub bombs out. if it does, then it may be somewhere's
at a point in your AVI, a frame is corrupt or else it's something
else to do w/ AVIsynth or codec or something :(

You can also scan the AVI for errors in vdub, but that takes a lot
of time - well, at least for me it did.

But do give the above a shot.

I loaded it in vdub, then cropped out the commercials (it was the married with children special reunion, 640x480)

Direct stream copy from vdub.

approx 20 gigs.

I don't recall avisynth having issues with large files either. Wonder if it's a bug ??

I just also now tried a chunk of the file separately, and also a chunk as uncompressed. Same result.

very strange indeed.

I had it working with mpeg2dec (2.5 version) with no issues.

See: TroubleShooting (http://www.avisynth.org/index.php?page=Troubleshooting)

Hint: Your syntax is wrong.

**** ****.

Been using avisynth for a little while now. LMAO

Started mucking with variables a little bit ago, and now it all splooged around.

Thanks sh0dan I see the error now.
