AviSynthTwoFivePixelType

The internals of VideoInfo.pixel_type has been completely changed. The type has been changed from byte to int, and now contains different information than before. This is important when building a Source filter, when you have to set the pixel_type. You have to change your constants to reflect this change.

In general filters should not care about these values at all - only if they set or modify them. For checking what colorspace the video material is in, use one of the following functions in VideoInfo.

  • bool IsRGB()
  • bool IsRGB24()
  • bool IsRGB32()
  • bool IsYUV()
  • bool IsYUY2()
  • bool IsYV12()
  • bool IsPlanar()

If you need to set the pixel type, use a syntax like:

vi.pixel_type = VideoInfo::CS_YUY2; // Version 2.5 syntax

instead of:

vi.pixel_type = VideoInfo::YUY2; // Version 2.0 syntax

Other possibilities are:

  • CS_BGR24,
  • CS_BGR32,
  • CS_YUY2,
  • CS_YV12, // y-v-u, planar
  • CS_I420, // y-u-v, planar
  • CS_IYUV // same as above

The last two are automatically converted to YV12, so filter writers should not worry about these.
