I always get the error "Legal Clip: Source must be YUY2" when I load the script made by Movie Stacker.
My source is an *.avi and I have loaded one of the presets in MovieStacker, moreover I tried to add the line "ConvertToYUY2()" to my script, but after doing that I got an "Unrecognized exeption".

Here's my script:

#==============================================#
# -= AviSynth script by MovieStacker v1.1.1 =- #
#==============================================#

LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\MPEG2Dec. dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\TemporalC leanerOld.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\GripFit_p review.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\BlockBust er.dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\DustV5.dl l")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\LegalClip .dll")
LoadPlugin("E:\vids\MovieStacker\Filters\Sampler.d ll")

What is your AviSynth version?

2.5

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think LegalClip can not be used with AviSynth v2.5.
I can't test it cause I don't have v2.5 installed.
Btw, MovieStacker don't have support for v2.5 yet.

Oh I didn't know that, I'll try 2.0.7

Damn, still the same problem.

Should work, double check your version again, insert

version()

into your avs and play it.

What codec is used, can you play the avi with mediaplayer ?

maybe it will help too:

Well, yes I can play the file with mediaplayer and I'm sure I have avisynth 2.0.7

Perhaps I should mention that the "Unrecognized Error" is in line 16 of the script I posted earlier. Does this help you a little bit?

You could try to change the line to something like this,
Blockbuster(method="noise", variance=.4, seed=1)

Well, I tried all the plugins and same setting, works fine, so it must be your avi that cause the problem.

You can try:

1. Remove LegalClip, it doesn't harm if you don't include it or
2. Remove one by one other command and it's dll to see which one is not compatible.

Thanks to all you guys for the hints, I solved the problem by myself now, it was the pixi dust filter wich caused the error.
