AVS on a CD/DVD

[leonhard]

As it is a nice thing to have a (short or a long version for example) on a CD, or a cut AVS-version together with the originally DV Source, it would be nice to find a way to find a foolproof way to organice this.

1. First it should contain something like an installer/checker for Avisynth of course

2. Second I dont't know if it is possible to work with relative path in scripts? (I was looking for with it but couldn't dig to the answer, I don't believ it myself)

3. Then there should be a compatible player

4. All I forgot or didn't think of.

Any suggestions?

I was actually thinking about this as well for a long time, I wonder why noone has replied to this yet...
Maybe we'll see something like that in combination with menus one day, who knows?

In fact you should already be able to realize your idea today. Though I don't know how to use relative paths in AVS either. Maybe you should make a feature request on SourceForge. It should be real easy to implement this feature, right?

A while ago I had a DVD (Le Pactes des Loups, German version, Director's Cut) which had some bonus scenes included. Unfortunately these scenes were not dubbed. There were no subs either. Wanting to make a dual language rip of it, I had to insert the french parts without subs into the German version! The alternative would have been not to insert the additional scenes at all.
Two avs scripts would have worked wonderfull.
Another advantage is that with muxing two streams during playback (which mplayerc is natively able to do) you wouldn't have any overhead, resulting in an extra couple of MBs.

Paths have always been relative to the script location. (Not at my workstation right now; hope I'm not making this up...)

You're not making it up ;). I work on two different PCs with the same scripts, so paths have to be relative (except for the plugin path which I've made identical on both PCs for LoadPlugin).

Scripts are rellative for sure. I often remove the path leading to the file, because I like to move my wokrking directories around. With relative path I never have to modify it again.

i wish this here avisynthesizer i have been using could do relative paths.........
