Avisynth: LoadPluginEX- cannot get it working
 

Well I guess I'm just too dumb to get this to work :cry: :lol:

I followed the instructions from this link
http://www.avisynth.org/index.php?page=LoadOldPlugins

but I keep getting Access Violation errors

I installed the MSVCR70.dll and MSVCP70.dll in the Windows\System32 directory

Finally got it working. Had to find MSVCP71.dll and MSVCR71.dll on the net

Thanks again Incredible,
ren

hey bman,

Put the LoadPluginEX2.dll where the other avisynth filters are located and then put a LoadPlugin("path\LoadPluginEX2.dll") line in your script. Put the necessary dlls (MSVCP71.dll, etc) in the WINDOWS\system32 folder. You should get an error message telling which dlls you're missing.

good luck,
ren

Hi everyone. I've done all things you mention in your previous posts, but I can't get it to work! When I try opening my script in VDub it says:
Unrecognized exception!
and points to the line in my script where I've put PixieDust(). :cry:
Here's my test script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Old\LoadPluginEx2.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\Old\DustV5.dll")
Mpeg2Source("D:\Rippat\Test\Test.d2v")
PixieDust()
LanczosResize(448, 416, 11, 0, 698, 576)
AddBorders(16, 80, 16, 80)

I really want to try this filter out together with the latest MA script just to find out if I can increase compression. Help desperately wanted!

What colorspace are you working in? mpeg2dec3 outputs YV12 by default, which Dust doesn't support. You most likely need to add ConverttoYUY2() just before PixieDust() in your script.

That's absolutely correct, sbin! I added ConvertToYUY2() before PixieDust() and ConvertToYV12() after. And now it works! Thanks guys! :D It wasn't exactly yesterday I worked with the Dust filters so, I guess I forgot this color space issue... :oops:

In the little script you have you don't need to convert back to YV12. You should avoid it !
