I have a problem with some Divx4 and Xvid videos. When I view the videos directly on WMP, it looks fine but when I use AVS script and view it on WMP, it has green artifacts and pixelation (melting pixels). What can i do to fix this problem? I tried using ffdshow to decode the videos but problem is still the same.

I think I've found the problem. I tried it in Media Player Classic and the filter it was using is "AVI Decompressor YV12". It's not using the decoders reported by GSPOT. I think all I have to do is reinstall the codecs and restart. Thanks.

I was wrong. The filter "AVI Decompressor" is used only all my AVS script according to Media Player Classic, so I guess the filter belongs to AVIsynth. I still managed to solve the problem by using Directshowsource() instead of AVIsource(). Is directshowsource() what I should be using for my AVI videos because all filters like Divx, Xvid, etc are directshow filters, so it kinna make sense.

When I view either the AVI or the AVS script in VirtualDub, the green artifacts appears. Apparently Virtualdub works like AVISource().

Could you open the avi and the avs in vdub and look under file information to see which codec is used to decode it?

No, they are codecs. You can find them as vfw (vdub uses these to decode/encode them), but also as directshow filters (xvid.ax, divxsomething.ax, etc).
