Unable to load plugin: MPEG2Dec3.dll

[Deacon Blues]

I'm unable to get the following avisynth script to import into VirtualDubMPEG2

LoadPlugin("MPEG2Dec3.dll")
mpeg2source("D:\frameserving foder\DVD2AVI\red.d2v")

VD says avisynth can't find the plugin in Line 1 of the script.
I have downloaded and unzipped the plugin and put it into avisynth's plugin folder.

What am I doing wrong?

First off, if it's in the plugin folder you don't need to use LoadPlugin. If not you need the full path (ie LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth\MPEG2Dec3.dll")

ok, great, thanks, looks like that fixed line 1!

now VD states:

Avisynth Open Failure:
Unrecognized Exception
C:\Program Files\Avisynth 2.5\red.avs, Line 2


re.avs is the name of the script. But I didn't mentions that in line 2. Or does it read between the lines.;)

here is my script again(updated):

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
mpeg2source("D:\frameserving foder\DVD2AVI\red.d2v")

Which dvd2avi version and which mpeg2dec3 version are you using? I think they are imcompatiable.

Just get dvd2avi 1.76/1.77.3 and mpeg2dec3 v1.10.

[Deacon Blues]

DVD2AVI 1.77.3

and

MPEG2Dec3 1.0.0.0

so I gotta get another version of MPEG2Dec3.dll?
