Premiere Bashing?

Nope, still does it. It's only when I close Premiere, and doesn't seem to affect anything other than probably leaving some memory lying around so it's a liveable error, though annoying.

I had a look through the source code of the plugin for anything else dodgy but couldn't find anything. Premiere occasionally still comes up with strange results but I blame either Premiere itself or some memory overwriting going on in avisynth.

Cheers!

I'll install the new version and give it a test shortly. I've since converted all my sources to Lagarith, so won't be able to tell you definitively if everything's fixed. Looks like badmartialarts is still getting the error though...

Hi. Thanks for the feedback.

If badmartialarts could tell me the version of Premiere he's using that might help me reproduce the crash.

Once Premiere has closed Windows should reclaim all the memory so no lasting problems there.

I have Premiere Pro CS3, running on Windows XP 64-bit edition. I did not have problems using the plug in on Premiere Pro 2, 1.5, or the original Premiere Pro on Windows XP 32-bit edition, so I can't say if it's maybe the 64-bit OS that's doing it or Pro CS3. I only get the crash on shut down of Premiere Pro CS3 using any method of shut down (File/Exit, hitting the red X, hitting Alt-F4). This happened with both the version of the plug in included with the AMVApp as well as the latest version. Without any .avs files on the timeline there is no crash. Actually, I just started with a clean project and was not able to make it crash even importing an .avs file and putting a small clip from it on the timeline. But another project with full timeline coverage gives me the "Sorry, a serious error has occurred. Premiere will now shut down. It will attempt to save your project blah blah" message on shut down. I will test it further, it might be something pecluiar to the scripts themselves....

OK cool. I don't have a 64-bit OS but I'll try some complex scripts on CS3 and see what happens.

Cheers!
