I'm trying to to a DVD rip for a friend of WrestleMania XV. Anyways, I've used AVISynth before with no problems but now CCE absolutely refuses to open the AVS file, giving me: AVIFILEINFO: Uknown Error. Here's my simple AVS: LoadPlugin("D:\DVDToolz\AVISynth\MPEG2DEC.dll") mpeg2source("D:\WORK\wmxv.d2v") LoadPlugin("D:\DVDToolz\AVISynth\Decomb.dll") mpeg2source("D:\WORK\wmxv.d2v") FieldDeinterlace() ReSampleAudio(44100) I'm using the latest version of AVISynth, DVD2AVI 1.76, and CCE SP 2.5. I've searched the forums repeatedly and came up with a few suggestions to resolve this problem but have found no solutions. The Stickys and FAQ were full of great information but that could help me. I can open the AVS file in VirtualDub just fine...Any ideas? Thanks, John

LoadPlugin("D:\DVDToolz\AVISynth\MPEG2DEC.dll") mpeg2source("D:\WORK\wmxv.d2v") LoadPlugin("D:\DVDToolz\AVISynth\Decomb.dll") mpeg2source("D:\WORK\wmxv.d2v") Why are you trying to open the source 2 times? Could that be the problem?

I added that there as a last resort. I tried it with the source listed once initially. Thanks for the suggestion though. Any other ideas?

What happends if you open the AVS in virtual Dub. Could you post all the version numbers - AviSynth, decomb, mpeg2dec, cce, windows.

I'm running the following: Windows XP Pro AVISynth 2.07 DVD2AVI 1.76 CCE 2.5 SP The latest MPEG2DEC The AVS file opens and plays just fine in Virtual Dub as well.

You might have more luck in CCE forum (in general - if it works in vdub, it's not an AviSynth issue). A far-out solution could be to try to install the DirectX 8.1 fix by Koepi (at the bottom of the CVS-bin-page in my sig). Or maybe try the updated binary on the same page.

Thanks for the reply. I agree completely - I think it's something funky with CCE. I do appreciate your time. John
