Avisynth plugin VirtualDub error message?
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hi, I've downloaded a number of plugins for Avisynth. I've probably put them in the incorrect place on my computer, hence the plugin directory screenshot. I haven't tried to use them I've only clicked on the virtualdub icon's in the folders. Have I done something or many things wrong or is it because they cannot be accessed this way. Thanks.

Avisynth filters must be loaded/used in an AViSynth script. VirtualDub is then used to load the script and watch/save the resulting video

Thanks lollo. I got myself in a bit of a pickle but hopefully now I'm on the right track. I've attached my updated plugins folder. Minus the FFTW3 I'm not sure if I should put it in? as I followed the QTGMC requirements (attachment) and did a copy of libffw3f-3.dll called it FFTW3.dll and put both into the SysWow64 folder. Thank you

FFTW3 can be loaded as a pluging using loadDLL:

Code:

        # FFTW
loadPlugin(plugins_dir + "LoadDLL10\LoadDLL\LoadDLL32.dll")
loadDll(plugins_dir + "fftw-3.3.5-dll32\libfftw3f-3.dll")

Have a look to the script in:

Thank you lollo. Does this mean I should reverse what I did with the "copy of libffw3f-3.dll called it FFTW3.dll and put both into the SysWow64 folder" and instead try to load it with loadDLL? Thanks

Depending on what you're trying to do, sometimes Hybrid can be easier for processing. I use it myself for certain lower end tasks, like QTGMC deinterlace only, output to whatever is needed.

But learning Avisynth always best.

DG1965 07-03-2022 12:07 PM

Thanks Lordsmurf. I thought it was the correct way to use the FFTW3 filter but I must have misunderstood the QTGMC page. I will reinstall it and remove the 2 plugins from the SysWow64 folder.
I've spent the whole weekend reading Avisynth it should click one day!

Does not matter, use whatever is easier for you ;)

Thanks lollo. I've attached a snapshot of my fftw3 folder. I'm guessing I should move all 3 dll files into my plugins folder?

lollo2 07-03-2022 04:43 PM

I do not see the DLLs in your picture.
You just need to load libfftw3f-3.dll as described earlier, or place it in your working directory (where you execute/load you avs script) or follow indications in QTGMC doc http://avisynth.nl/index.php/QTGMC. I use first method.

DG1965 07-04-2022 12:17 AM

Thanks lollo. I will take a look tonight after work.

Hi, The DLL files in my plugins all have virtualdub icons, I'm not sure if that's normal (see attached)
I've moved libffw3f-3.dll into my plugins folder. The Zs_RF_Shared.avsi is showing as a text document. I'm guessing I've saved it incorrectly and it should be a Avisynth Autoload? Thanks.

I ignore what "associations" you have in your system.

Which icorresponds to none of the options described earlier.

Yes, that pluginis is an AviSynth "function", you can read it with a text editor.

BTW, why don't you just follow what was proposed in http://www.digitalfaq.com/forum/vide...html#post85085 ? I do not understand what you are trying to do, neither the problems you are facing...

Thanks lollo. I think I'm confusing the Avisynth plugin download directory that I created with the plugin that came with the initial 2.6o.exe install. Sorry.
Now I have these downloads on my created plugin directory(attached) I can now create a script with the text editor and follow your other instructions. I don't need to do anything with the files? If so am I over thinking this. Thanks.

Use the plugin directory you created and not the default "autoload" AVS pluging directory. Once you are familair with the loading mechanism, you can then use the second, and put everything there (but I always prefer to load manually every plugin to do not get lost with the dependencies).

Hi, I copied the script and changed the path to the corresponding video on my system as I had a different error message when running the original script. I saved the script as "script reload.avs" and got the error message Avisynth open failure. Any advice would be appreciated. I have been able to do the Avisynth test scripts using video clips. Thanks.

lollo2 07-06-2022 04:14 PM

The first error was caused by the video file not being located in the same directory of the avisynth script. You changed the command
Code:

video_org=AviSource("family holiday 2004 3.avi")
with
Code:

video_org=AviSource("E:\family holiday 2004 3.avi")
then it is fixed.


The second error says that AviSynth cannot fine the QTGMC function. What is strange is that you have an error in your script because you specify
Code:

plugins_dir="<AviSynth plugin directory>"
while it should be the full path of your AviSynth plugin directory. But the error message indicates "C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\AviSynth_plugin_dir" which could be ok. Be sure that you properly specify the directory where the plugins are located:
Code:

plugins_dir="C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\AviSynth_plugin_dir\"
and that QTGMC.avsi is effectly there.

Thank you lollo for correcting my errors. I've reinstalled my Avisynth and reinstalled the downloads and created a new Avisynth plugun directory and placed it on my desktop. I'm getting the attached error message on virtualdub with the attached notepad script. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've attached my plugins directory also just in case this is the problem. None of my avsi are autoload unlike lollos Temporaldegrain download.
I didn't know if my files are bloated and I should remove the 64 bit folders? is having both files conflicting.
I attached my MVTools folder. Thanks.

lollo2 07-08-2022 03:16 PM

Sorry, I still do not understand.

I prepared a use case for you. Download the following and place it in your Desktop. Load the avs script in VirtualDub, everything should be ok. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oHv...ew?usp=sharing

If you face resource problem with your PC, just let me know and I will split the processing in multiple files.
