Hello Video Freaks,

New in beta 37:
---------------
-bug fixes
-Should solve the problems with CCE under Win2K
 (AMD users: disable the CCE audio encoder. It has a bug)

New in beta 36:
---------------
-Totally new audio engine.
-Benchmark option.
-bug fixes

How to use the benchmark:
-------------------------
Options->Select Output Format->Link to Avisynth1.0beta31 
Options->Output format Options->Enable benchmark
Options->Global project->General->Compile time ~100sec
         (A longer compile time is more accurate. You need a minimum of 500frames for
          reliable results).
Run->Startconversion
Now a file c:\benchmark_results.txt is written. Please fill in the 
requested data for comparison. You can send me the results if you like.

New in beta 32:
-Can save the audio to wav file. This is useful for the CCE encoder.

New in beta 31:

-Some bugs were removed
-Multi pass function is enabled again
 (Do not use the split function with multi pass)
-Split function 
-AVS file creator (in c:\)
-Logfile (in c:\)
-Cache for audio and video (No more restarting of Flask)
-Better Audio sync for Flask users
-Settings menu 

This is v1.0beta31 of the avisynth dll (based on V1.0beta3 by Ben Rudiak-Gould).
In this beta a new IPC interface is implemented.

The plugin is totally rewritten. 

Installing the Plugin
---------------------
Just copy the Cm-avisynth.cm.flask in the Flask dir. If you
want to use it within Premiere just rename it to Cm-avisynth.cm.prm
and move it in the plugin dir. 
 
Installing Avisynth
----------------------
Avisynth consists in its entirety of a single DLL and a few entries in
the Registry. Once you've unpacked the distribution archive, just move
avisynth.dll to your windows\system directory and double-click the install.reg file.
There should be no need to reboot. 

To uninstall Avisynth, double-click the uninstall.reg file and remove 
the avisynth.dll file from windows\system. 

You can check if it works, by loading the part0.avs file from the root
in the mediaplayer. The plugin should be running within Premiere or Flask,
 (select all files)


About the dual pass.
---------------------------
Now all bugs are removed (as far as I can see) and should work
also with Cinemacraft (Not tested). In the previous versions the
frames where not the same in every pass. So with this new version
the encoded MPEGs should have a better quality. Give it a try.
p.s. For Dual pass you need the Dualpass Flask from my homepage.
 

Split function with TGMPEG:
---------------------------

NEW!!!!!!!! read the splitguide on my site (www.videotools.net)
the project files are included in this archive.

Start the conversion in Flask. The plugin should be displayed.
(the .trp files are for VCD(PAL) only)

FLASK->Start Serving
(Settings plugin
Timeout          enabled
Timeout time     90 sec (recommended)
Split function   enabled
Split time	 time of the first part. secondpart=totaltime-timefirstpart.
Create avs       enabled
)
TGMPEG->Batch processing->Part0.trp
TGMPEG->Batch processing->Add->Part1.trp
TGMPEG->StartEncoding.

The first part should be encoded. The plugin will time out (so wait 90 sec)
And then part 2 will be encoded.

WARNING never load Part1.trp or Part1.avs in the encoder without batch processing !!!!
(TGMPEG will not start anymore because it waits for part1.avs to start serving).
 
Making part0.trp file
FLASK->StartServing (max time 10 sec!!!!)
(Settings plugin
Timeout          enabled
Timeout time     99 sec (recommended)

TGMPEG->load Part0.avs
TGMPEG->Make settings
TGMPEG->Save project (part0.trp).
FLASK->Hit Stopserving in the plugin
FLASK->Hit Stopserving in the plugin

Making part1.trp file
FLASK->StartServing (max time 10 sec!!!!)
(Settings plugin
Timeout          enabled
Timeout time     99 sec (recommended)
Split function   enabled
Split time       5 sec
Create avs       enabled)
FLASK->Hit Stopserving in the plugin (part1.avs is serving)
TGMPEG->load Part1.avs (It will take a while before TFMPEG is active again)
TGMPEG->Make settings
TGMPEG->Save project (part1.trp).
FLASK->Hit Stopserving in the plugin

When the encoding is finished the plugin shuts down automatically. When "shutdown" in Flask is enabled the computer will shut down. (Minimum of 1000 frames)
