Does seem fine to.

-> Does the Vapoursynth preview work properly?

Cu Selur

No, the VapourSynth preview fails with this output (which I'm pretty sure I have seen before BTW)-

A forgot about that, see: https://forum.selur.net/showthread.php?tid=1666 and replacing the vslsmashsource.dll should fix the issue.

That did the trick, thanks. The vslsmashsource.dll in the dev version is a few bytes different in size to the one linked in that thread.
