Yet another Avisynth access violation thread

[wizzy16]

Hello,

So I want to load a .d2v file with mpeg2source. The DGDecode.dll is in the plugins folder. I'm getting the System exception - Access violation error.
I've tried the setmaxmemory command with 32, 128 and even 256 and it still didn't work.

What should I do?
Thank you

First it would be good to explain what version of AviSynth you installed, did you use the stock installer or AMVpack?

[wizzy16]

I installed avisynth+ from the avisynth website

Was it AviSynth.nl (the wiki) or the AviSynth+ website? The AviSynth+ website has a VERY outdated version as development was abaonded by those who manage that site and pinterf picked up developing it, so make sure you have the latest version that can be found here. Are you using the 64-bit or 32-bit version? Also, what version of DGDecode are you using?

Side note, if you look at this thread you can find AMVpack which will setup everything for you. It's kept up to date and I have not encountered anyone having issues like this out of that.

I've installed the newer version of Avisynth+ (r2772-MT; I'm not sure what "MT" stands for)
The issue still persists
I'm using DGDecode 1.5.8

Are you using 32-bit or 64-bit? Make sure both are one or the other, and also I would recommend removing all other plugins in the folder to see if that solves the issue just to narrow things down.

Yeah I think the Avisynth+ is 64bit and the DGdecode is 32bit. The problem though is, usually programs have a "get 32 bit" and a "get 64 bit" download link on their websites; in this case though, both programs have only the latest version to download on their websites. It's just a hunch that the Avisynth+ last version from this place is 64 bit. Same goes for the DGMPGDec 1.5.8; I figured it's 32 bit beacuse its "run in compatibility mode" option starts from win95.

I'm actually not sure where to get a 64bit DCMPGDEC from. Sorry if I'm annoying you

My AVSPmod (also 32 bit) gets stuck often for some reason

There are 64-bit versions on the AviSynth.nl site on this page. That said, AMVpack will have all the basic plugins and software like this that you need for most purposes. If you want to snag that and install it, we update it frequently to make sure it is up to date. It is also compatible with the stock installers just in case you need to update and we have not updated our installer yet. We put it together specifically to reduce having to troubleshoot issues like this.

Alright, I guess I'll try installing the AMVAPP and see if the issues persist. Thank you
