LoadPluginEx

About plugin compatibility †

There is no compatibility of external plugins between AviSynth 1.0/2.0 and AviSynth 2.5. So, you can't use AviSynth 1.0/2.0 plugins in AviSynth 2.5, and vice versa.

But if you use LoadPluginEx plugin, you will be able to use AviSynth 1.0/2.0 plugins in AviSynth 2.5, and vice versa.

How to use LoadPluginEx †

If you want to use AviSynth 1.0/2.0 plugins in AviSynth 2.5, you have to load LoadPluginEx.dll before loading them as follows:

# Use Dust in AviSynth 2.5
LoadPlugin("C:\your_plugin_dir\LoadPluginEx.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\your_plugin_dir\DustV5.dll") # DustV5 is a plugin for AviSynth 1.0/2.0.
# .
# . source filter and other filters here.
# .
ConvertToYUY2() # if your clip is YV12, you need to convert it to YUY2, etc.
FaeryDust(2) # Because Dust doesn't support YV12.
# .
# . other filters and convert back to YV12 if you want to.
# .

Notes †

↑

YV12 support is available starting from AviSynth 2.5. †

YV12 support in AviSynth started in AviSynth ver 2.5.0. So all plugins for AviSynth 1.0/2.0 don't support YV12 color space. If your source clip is decoded as YV12, you must convert it to non YV12 format (e.g. YUY2, etc) by using an internal Convert filter.
