Nothing But Errors

chris319 · 13th November 2019, 10:21

I can't get Avisynth to do anything except show the version message. Anything else results in an error message. I'm following instructions to the letter. My machine is garden-variety Windows 10; nothing exotic about it.

Several people on another forum have made suggestions to install codecs, etc. but to no avail. Everything results in a dead end.

The latest error message is:

Quote:

Setup cannot copy the file AACACM.acm

I tried installing the AAC ACM decoder as Administrator which was a challenge in itself (I don't even know if it installed properly) but am still getting the above error message.

I'm getting ready to give up on the whole thing.

It helps a lot if you post your script.

Code:

AviSource("D:\videos\trains\drop.avi")

If the problem is a missing audio decoder, you could probably get the video loaded by opening the file in VirtualDub2 and saving a new file with the audio track disabled. I don't know if AVISource's audio=false parameter can get around the problem, but you can try that too.

Can you post the file or a small sample cut with AviDemux?

I think he should have mentioned that in a thread entitled AviSynth Busted, the AVI in question uses H.264 video and AAC audio.

He says he has avisynth latest installed, (Latest avs+ is v3.4.0 showing r2923 for version):- https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus/releases
(I'm guessin' he might have old Ultim version installed)

AviSynthPlus_3.4.0_20191020.exe posted 24 days ago [installer for both x86 and x64].

Code:

return version
