Not working Avisynth preview when loaded *.wmv file

[kingcrimsonster]

Avisynth preview error
[Fatal]: Failed to avformat_open_input.

Different file, different problem,...
Seems like LWLibavVideoSource can't handle the source.
Would need a sample of such a file to see whether any Avisynth source filter can handle it.
You can try whether enabling 'Filtering->Misc->Force DirectShowSource' helps with that source.
WMV files are always problematic with open source filters.

Cu Selur

Ps.: off to work now, will try to look into it further after work in case you can share a sample of the source.

Same result

Previous versions of Hybrid correctly work with *.wmv files.

[Selur]

With the same file?

[kingcrimsonster]

I did not check these files on previous versions.

I tried to open various *.wmv files

works fine here
I enabled 'Filtering->Avisynth->Misc->Prefer FFmpegSource" should fix the issue.

Cu Selur

Ps.: Funny thing is that LWLibavSource can handle the file fine when using Vapoursynth,..

[kingcrimsonster]

I also enabled 'Filtering->Avisynth->Misc->Prefer FFmpegSource", again Avisynth preview error

FFVideoSource: Can't open 'I:\proba\wmv\Los Bravos ? Black Is Black (1966) .wmv'

File you send me was named:

Los Bravos – Black Is Black (1966) .wmv

-> try renaming the file
Cu Selur

[kingcrimsonster]

try renaming the file

Thank you, now working.

[Selur]

btw. how did you get the '?' into the file name, at least here Windows doesn't allow a question mark inside a file name and abort when trying to name a file that way.
