AviSynth – A Free Frameserver

Shucks, I don’t even know how AviSynth works, or what a frameserver is, but I do know that in combination with Virtualdub, it allows me to do some pretty cool things with videos.

What can you do with it? Well, you can create slow-motion effects. You can use it to join videos together. AviSynth feeds the video to the editing program rather than letting the program actually open the video. Because of this, you can use it to open massive files not typically supported by your video editing program. Or, you can open up video files of different types because your program thinks it’s just opening up a standard AVI. There’s lots more AviSynth can do, but to be honest, I don’t know what. It’s a program for much geekier types than myself, but if you have a little bit of patience, you’ll find it can do amazing things when you’re post-processing your videos.

Actually, I just wrote about it to make myself look really technical.
