AviSynth无法打开我的AVI文件：“ AVISource：无法找到Fourcc DVD的解压缩器”

Question

I simply want to open an AVI file with AviSynth and feed it into VirtualDub. However, when I open my .avs script (consisting of just one AviSource() call), I get the following error:

Avisynth open failure: AVISource: Couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc dvds (H:\\Videos\\QTGMC\\test.avs, line 1)

The required dvsd codec seems to be installed, according to software called GSpot (which identifies a video file's required codec's). Does anyone know why I can't open this file and how to fix it?

Answer 1

In case anyone has the same issue in the future, I solved it by installing Cedocida codec: http://www.cithraidt.de/cedocida/index.html#download .

Using DirectShowSource() instead of AviSource() also works.

Answer 2

You can use FmpegSource2() - it does not use codecs from the system like AVISource() or DirectShowSource() and recognizes a lot of modern format with frame accuracy.

Basically, it supports all the formats FFMPEG does.
