OK, I just tried something on a hunch: I ran a simple script with just version() in it, first directly, then by wrapping an MP_Pipeline call round it.

Directly: AviSynth 2.58 MT v/6 (SVP edition), build: Oct 5 2010 [13:43:59]

Via MP_Pipeline: AviSynth 2.58 tsp MT version 5(mod seraphy), build: Jul 12 2009 [07:46:21]

MP_Pipeline is picking up a different installation of Avisynth to Virtualdub (one which seems to be twice as efficient!). How is it doing that?!?

Turns out I have two avisynth.dll files active, one in system32 and one in sysWOW64. The one in sysWOW64 is version 2.5.8.6, is only sized 396KB and seems to be the one being picked up by VirtualDub. MP_Pipeline is presumably picking up the one in system 32 (version 2.5.8.5, size 3.44MB).

Let's try removing the big fella from system32 (where it shouldn't be anyway)...
Nope, that's not solved it. *WHERE* is MP_Pipeline getting its version of avisynth from?
