Can't get AutoOverlay to work

Please help, I have no further ideas what to try next... -I installed the newest version of AvsFilterNet and AutoOverlay, as specified in the ReadMe, doesn't work. -AVSMeter says: "C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth\plugins\AutoOverlay_netautoload.dll" Exception 0xC0000005 [STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION] Module: D:\Programme\AVSMeter281\AVSMeter281\AVSMeter.exe Address: 0x010DC51B AvsFilterNet loads well. -I tried older versions, down to 0.1.3 - the same -.net 4 is installed and works, even Visual Studio 2015 is installed on this machine (Win 7 64 Bits) -I tried everything on another machine (also Win 7 64) - the same -Just to get it somehow to work I tried it on Win 10 - doesn't work Is there any trick to get this installed? If missing dependencies I could understand, but why access violation, and how then can it work at all? Any idea, friends?

Yes, I have only avisynth 2.6 installed, without the plus. The requirements say: AviSynth 2.6 or higher, AviSynth+ ... I interpreted the comma as an OR. I will give A+ a try - never used before. :thanks: so far!

Oops, yes you are correct, musta misread that. Moved plugs to autoload plugins directory, just getting blank frame, looks like I'm also having problems with the autoload stuff, but not with manual load of dlls. EDIT: Autoload plugins, and same script as posted above, and with "avsmeter test.avs", getting Buffer overflow message from Avsmeter v2.81. EDIT: With AvsMeter Avsinfo, getting Code:

I just installed also A+ r2728. Simple script works fine, so everythng fine about my other plugins. But AvsFilterNet: No crashing any more, but pure loading of the AvsFilterNet-plugin now lasts forever. Also the older ones that were provided with the older versions of AutoOverlay show the same behaviour: VirtualDub: CPU utilization 13%, about 45MB memory not fluctuating. I also renamed the dll, removed the autoload part, no other autoloads of this kind in the directory - useless. I will try under XP, if I get .net 4 installed...

AvsFilterNet is only the wrapper, you are of course right. I just thought that in spite of this fact AVSMeter would gather some information via AVSFilterNet about its sub-plugins, that's why I tried to get some help on this way. I just installed different versions of AVSFilterNet on a CLEAN and new Win10-installation. I installed AVISynth+ and put ONLY the two plugins in the plugins directory (later, just to see, in the plugins+ dir.) AVSFilterNet loads correctly. But always the error when trying to load AutoOverlay-plugin that it were no correct .net-assembly. Different versions. The "native" plugins are not accepted at all, don't know what is meant by "native" then? Just to be sure: @stainlessS, the pure plugin-loading worked for you on XP? Did I get this right? I read a lot about this plugin, and it would be very interesting for some tasks for me. Other people strangely seem to have not many problems with it? I formerly used some other ideas for getting two clips exactly overlayed (after interleaving then DeShaker, and some handwork the results were not too bad) but it is a lot of work with a lot of problems, which could be omitted if this plugin worked...

Thank you! But you won't believe it: Just started with -log and the same hang-up as with script and VirtualDub. Lasts forever, does nothing, but 13% CPU load. By now I give sadly up, no more time. Thank you for your kind help so far!

Just got it at least on Win 10. The two plugins load. I think it must have been the "This file came from another computer and might be blocked ..." thing. Never had heard of those issues, sorry, if this was trivial. After all I get some black frames with colour adjust(), but no errors so far. Looking forward to learn how it works!

If someone is interested: With avsfilternet 1.0.4 from mysteryX's github it works, NOT with the included ones. I am very curious, how good it works!

Thanks for your reply, but: -I have a clean Win10-installation without AviSynth classic, ONLY AviSynth+ -Your version 0.22 works fine (apart from memory leaks you mentioned), but not together with the included AvsFilterNet, only with the newest one from mysteryX -Your new version 0.23 does EDIT: load correctly (I forgot again to unblock the dlls, but never again...), but then throws a lot of errors. I keep trying. This on my system, of course - but as I said: a clean, new Win10-professional installation.

Stuck again... after trying the newer version with different avsfilternet-dlls it hangs again with 100% the same versions that worked last night, unblocked or not. Must have been a dream. @StainlessS "lasts forever" meant that VirtualDub hang, no response any more, no matter, how long I waited, but CPU load of constant 13%. Forgive my not perfect English. "pure plugin loading" meant just the two lines for the loading plus a version-line, no rendering. I'll wait until this will be more stable, too much time waisted. My technique with deshaking the interleaved clips does work, so I can wait. If stable this would be extremely useful!
