Does avisynth work with the Sorenson Squeeze software?
If it does please tell me how to do this...
If it doesn't so how can I resize anamorphic wide screen (720,576)->(640,360/352) in the sorenson squeeze?

Thanks,
Mark.

Use ffvfw to generate fake AVI files. They work nicely with Squeeze.

Ending the script with convertToRGB32() might be a good idea, though.

Thank,
Just what is the ffvfw?

Get it here:

http://cultact-server.novi.dk/kpo/avisynth/avs_cvs.html (ffvfw AVIS)

ffvfw itself is an encoder.

Just try it. Install it, open the program makeAVIS, and import your AVS file. Don't forget to add ConvertToRGB32 to your AVS script. You will get a fake AVI which you should open in Squeeze.

Thank you, it look like a very good solution.... but, it gives me an error every time when I try to start the software:
"Failed to initialize AviSynth"
What to do?

Did you install AviSynth correctly?

Opening the script

Version()

in VirtualDub works?

Yes the version script works, I tried to reinstall both avisynth & ffvfw... Are there some configurations I need to configure or software wich I need to run?
I used only defaults when I installed those software...
Please help me....

Could you upload a short clip somewhere, which doesn't work?

But the problem is not with the clip, the problem is with the installation of the software, it can't find the avisynth or something... but if in this case the broblem can be solved, I will upload an example clip.

Thanks for helping (and sorry about my English).

Oh, I thought opening a script with makeAVIS was the problem. Sorry :)

Frankly, I have no idea what the problem is (it seems that AviSynth is installed correctly, so that's not the problem).

I assume you installed "November 13 - ffvfw AVIS (301kb)" from that download link?

Make sure you only use ABSOLUTE paths in your .avs script, otherwise it will not be able to open your files correctly.

@Sh0dan,

His problem is not opening scripts, his problem is that makeAVIS doesn't work at all (ie the program doesn't want to open).

OK, so my problem coming from the next steps:
I have installed both software, then I go to the start menu -> program files -> ffvfw -> makeAVIS (appeares without icon) -> error: Failed to initialize AviSynth.
Thats all, you click ok on the error window...
maybe I need some configurations?
