TMPGEnc: ReadAVS error, LoadPlugin problem
 

I have gone through all the tmpgenc files I could find and have the lastest version of all the software and I still get this from
TMPGenc " I don't know what "LoadPlugin" means on line 5.
Here is my script. If any one can help me out it would be great.

Thanx

do you have the avs-plugin installed?
if not, download this and follow the instructions in the readme.txt

OK I when I posted this that is what I meant by all the latest software inculding readavs and it is the readavs that is giving me the error
"I don't know what "LoadPlugin" means on line 5" when i try to load the avs file in TMPGenc.

:fahr:

just chef , if the path to your tmpgenc.exe you wrote in the readAVS.reg is correct and that you used double backslash

you can check, if readavs.dll is correctly installed, if you look at environmetal settings - VFAPI plugin looks like this

Yes that is the same way as in mine.

:fahr:

you said you got the newest versions of all tools?
that could be the problem. some versions of avisynth and tmpgenc do not work with each other
try tmpgenc v. 2.51 and avisynth 2.07

Where can a person find an old version of Tmpgenc ?

:fahr:

http://www.tmpgenc.net/download_file...9.157-Free.zip
don´t forget to install the plugin again

OK now using TMPGenc and AviSynth 207 and now TMPGenc is saying
"Unrecognized excption! (K:\dvd_video\video_ts\newscript.avs, line 11)
So now it is even more off.

Hi DCBJ,

Make sure you used DVD2AVI version 1.76, and not 1.77.

what does dvd2avi 1.76 have to do with tmpgenc and readavs files ?

The projects created with DVD2AVI 1.77.x are incompatible. The .d2v structure changed in version 1.77.x.

Hey Kwag thanx alot it is now up and running.

:ole: :ole:

Only problem is: All the time you have to troublehsoot the various steps,filters,settings,plugins, etc. etc. and last but not least: the encoding time .......you never have time to enjoy the movie !!!

After a little time and dedication, you become an expert. Then it starts to pay off :mrgreen:

Is there a "CORRECT" way to load the Avisynth 2.08 plugin in TEMPGenc? By that I mean it will show up in the VFPAPI plugin tab

Hi ezysk, I think the answer to your question is already answered in this thread. Make sure you follow the instructions in the ReadMe file that comes zipped with the ReadAVS plugin and you should be all set. Also follow the other tips that Kane and Kwag gave DCBJ here in this thread about using the double-backslashes when registering the pathname to the readavs.DLL and only using dvd2avi v1.76. Good luck.

I beleive I input these settings:
REGEDIT4

; Replace the path below with the real path to the DLL.
; Be sure to type each backslash twice, as in the example.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VFPlugin]
"Avisynth"="C:\\Program Files\Pegasys Inc\TMPGEnc Plus 2.5\\ReadAVS.dll"

....but this was BEFORE I installed AviSynth 2.08 Anyways, I still can't find the plugin in VFPAI tab. What's a mystery to me, is why a program like TMPGenc doesn't have a "browse" button to find and load plugins like other normal programs do.

you have to make EVERY backslash TWICE

"Avisynth"="C:\\Program Files\\Pegasys Inc\\TMPGEnc Plus 2.5\\ReadAVS.dll"

...oh and one more other thing: The latest Avisynth 2.08 Version does not have the required dll file as mentioned in the previous read AVS version, and maybe thats why it says: "This file cannot be loaded" in TMPGenc VFPAI plugin tab.
