    Can anyone describe how to use AviSynth with Gui4ffmpeg? AviSynth scripts that work with TMPGEnc Plus won't even start with Gui4ffmpeg.
    Gui4ffmpeg has "TV.avs" hard-wired as the script name but no matter how I alter this file or what .avi input I use I get the same error
    "change source file name in line;XXXSource(...)"

    Thing is the same script renamed works with TMPGEnc... so the plugins
    can be loaded and the .avi source found etc...

    There's got to be some gimmick I'm not aware of to get the script
    to run through Gui4ffmpeg. Has anyone run into this?

    I at least have the AviSynth script running now. I just copied the script that worked with TMPGEnc to Gui4ffmpeg install folder and renamed it TV.avs. So far so good. :)

    Yes, I confirm. I use CCE and it just refuses to load 'script.avi' which TMPGenc loads with no problem.

    It simply crashed trying to load the 'script.avi' movie....

    A script should have the AVS extension, because, apart few cases, you are compelled to have AVS scripts.
    Since you also heve TMPGenc, I suggest you to:
    1) test the AVISynth script with TMPGenc, first. My version of CCE crashes ; instead, TMPGenc post an erroe message.
    2) use the script in Gui4ffmpeg. Gui4ffmpeg too, should load it.

    In this way, at least you avoid all problems regarding AviSynth (plugins, file names and so on) and concentrate only on Gui4ffmpeg's problems, if any.

    Hi. I did get it to work in gui4ffmpeg. One pass ran in real time
    whereas TMPGEnc took about 75 or 80 min. to process a 47 min. video.
    So that's encouraging. :)
