Please post your script so we can see what you're doing wrong.

-main avs - Import("menu.avs") c1=AVISource("clip1.avi") c2=AVISource("clip2.avi") c3=AVISource("clip3.avi") c4=AVISource("clip4.avi") menu(c1,"chapter 1",c2,"chapter 2",c3,"chapter 3",c4,"chapter 4","kaymans svcd",480,576,100) -end- -menu avs- function menu(clip a, string txt1, clip b, string txt2, clip c, string txt3, clip d, string txt4, string title, int x, int y, int length) { a = a.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(30,108,20,0) b = b.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(0,108,20,0) c = c.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(0,108,30,0) d = d.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(0,40,20,0).Subtitle(txt1).AddBorders(30,0,0,0) e = e.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(0,40,20,0).Subtitle(txt2) f = f.BicubicResize(180,136).AddBorders(0,40,30,0).Subtitle(txt3) top = StackHorizontal(a,b,c) middle = StackHorizontal(d,e,F) g = BlankClip(a,width=200,height=60).Subtitle(txt4) bottom = StackHorizontal(g).AddBorders(30,0,0,0) StackVertical(top,middle,bottom) Subtitle(title,38,64,0,a.framecount,"",36) (x == 0)

I started to modify the script for 4 clips, but doing the calculations for the positions of each tumbnail is painful. So I rewrote the script using Layer. I think it makes a script more easier to read and modify: Here is the original function, rewritten using Layer: Code:

thanks! just 1 more question how do i "call" in my edit.avs? is it the same function ?

Actually that's what I'm referring to (codecs that returns RGB32). The divx3.11 codec returns RGB32 data only AFAIK, and with garbage in alpha. (Yes that's stupid for a MPEG type codec no to return YUY2, but that's the case). I don't know if we should reset alpha in AVISource, there might be codec out there that returns genuine alpha info.

i got it to open up but hte 4 windows are all black no imagepresent c1=AVISource("clip1.avi") c2=AVISource("clip2.avi") c3=AVISource("clip3.avi") c4=AVISource("clip4.avi") menu4(c1,"chapter 1",c2,"chapter 2",c3,"chapter 3",c4,"chapter 4","kaymans svcd",480,576,450)

Is your data RGB32 ? If yes, could you try this: c1=AVISource("clip1.avi") c2=AVISource("clip2.avi") c3=AVISource("clip3.avi") c4=AVISource("clip4.avi") c1=c1.Mask(BlankClip(c1,color=$FFFFFF)) c2=c2.Mask(BlankClip(c2,color=$FFFFFF)) c3=c3.Mask(BlankClip(c3,color=$FFFFFF)) c4=c4.Mask(BlankClip(c4,color=$FFFFFF)) menu4(c1,"chapter 1",c2,"chapter 2",c3,"chapter 3",c4,"chapter 4","kaymans svcd",480,576,450)
