[MPlayer-users] AviSynth and MPlayer? (Reimar D?ffinger)

[Wayne]

Thanks for the reply.  I wasn't aware that these were 'custom builds'...
...
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mplayer-win32/files/MPlayer%20and%20MEncoder/old/

The messages I got were as verbose as MPlayer was capable of, unless there's another way to get more out of it.  Does this mean that there's no solution?  Not being a programmer myself, I don't know what else to do...

I'd hoping that MPlayer could be coaxed into supporting AviSynth scripts again since the combination is a worthy tool for media work.  Unfortunately, r31878 is rather ancient.  Was support for this intentionally dropped for some reason in 2010?  I'll provide whatever info is needed if I'm able.  Thanks.

There are kind of too many revisions in-between, plus you are testing
builds with custom patches which also might be the cause instead of
actual changes in MPlayer.
All I can say is that it should not be possible for it to exit without
printing something like it does, which means it crashes/does some other
invalid operation.
Obviously that is not intentional.
