TitlePicture.bmp.avs can not open or unsupported

[linuxking]

I am using DVD2SVCD, but this problem seems to be a TMPGEnc issue.

I have the following TitlePicture.bmp.avs file

LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\DVD2SVCD\AVISYN~1\AVISYN~1.DLL")
Blackness(2)
AssumeFPS(29.970)
ConvertToYUY2
BicubicResize(240,240)
AvisynthBMP_Loader("D:\matrix","TitlePicture.bmp")
BicubicResize(240,240)
AddBorders(232,120,232,120)
BicubicResize(480,480)
ConvertToRGB()

This file play in Windows Media Player - shows me the picture.

However, when I try to open this with TMPGEnc version 2.521.58.169, I get File "D:\matrix\TitlePicture.bmp.avs" can not open, or unsupported.

I have tried up'ing the environment setting of the Direct Show plugin - no change.

I've downloaded GSpot and rendered it - no problems. Uses the QUARTZ.DLL driver.

I have figured out a work around - but it's tedious. Would really like to solve this problem. Thanks.

perhaps a path error? I noticed that when using the imagereader command in avisynth, if you omit an explicit path to the bmp, the script will play fine in the mediaplayer if the script is in the same directory as the bmp, but will fail when encoding in TMPGenc (actually, my machine re-boots :( )

[edit] Are you sure the backslash in d:\matrix should be there?
