Can I use AviSynth filter as Directshow? filter, like, conversion, sufficient, possible

andy

... is this possible?

I want to use filters like FluxSmooth, Lanczos resize in graphedit via directshow. Is this possible, or is there a kind of quot;wrapperquot; ?

This would be very useful for conversion of my TV-captures with NeroDigital ;-)

Thnx amp; bye

You can open a script in graphedit. I don't know whether that's sufficient for your purpose?

You can use quot;ffdshow raw video filterquot; in graphedit, if you have ffdshow installed. With that you can use avisynth on any raw video stream. I even use avisynth processing (resizing, filtering) in realtime when capturing.

Thanks for your replies!

If this works with ffdshow this would be really great! I'll test it this evening

Both way work for me:

- I can use an avs (with my preferred filters) as source for NeroDigital Video encoder (this didn't work the last time I've tried  )

- The ffdshow filter works also, with built-in filters and also avs-scripts.

And I didn't notice any real speed difference at all.

Thanks once more,

beaware that encoding into .avi directly in dshow with the nero encoder seems to cause problems sometimes - i experienced that the ar info on the bitstream level seems to get f*ed up!
i assume the video encoder is simply not written/debugged for working correctly with the dshow avi muxer filter, so using neros mp4 muxer should be the secure way (after that you can demux to avi anyways, if you prefer using outdated technologies. keeping the .mp4 file would be better of course  )

Yeah this strange problem I've experienced on my standalone (Hiteker HE-940) as posted in another Thread (Graphedit / ND):

When I mux to avi, the files don't play (black screen, time jumps in 4+ seconds steps), with the same profile coded Recode-gt;mp4-gt;avi work correctly.

This is annoying to test every encode and hope that it plays.

I think I should try the mp4 output once more...

Hi ppl.

I don't want to start new thread so I'll post it here.

I have Avs 2.55 installed and ffdshow_12-10-2004. As you can see I can't do even a simple postprocessing via ffdshow amp; avs script. Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong.

hi,

I think crop expects the arguments in other meaning, so try this:
crop(8,8,704,420)

704 would be 720-8-8 (left -8 and right -8)

Hope this helps

Check quot;add ffdshow sourcequot; box, and leave checked only YV12 as input color space.
BTW, curently, AFAIK, there is a compiling issue in ffdshow. If your current compile doesn't work, try to use this compile, it worked for me:
ffdshow-20041201.exe

Marcellus, You were right about ffdshow version. I've downloaded and installed ffdshow_20041201 and it worked without changing Crop parameters or unchecking other colorspaces than YV12. I've only checked Add ffdshow source box.

Some avs filters don't work but this is not a real big problem (Trim or Reverse for example).Thanks for the help.
