Internal functions

From Avisynth

In addition to internal filters AviSynth has a fairly large number of other (non-clip) internal functions. The input or/and output of these functions are not clips, but some other variables which can be used in a script. They are roughly classified as follows:

• Numeric functions

They provide common mathematical operations on numeric variables.

• String functions

They provide common operations on string variables.

• Boolean functions

They return true or false, if the condition that they test holds or not, respectively.

• Conversion functions

They convert between different types.

• Control functions

They facilitate flow of control (loading of scripts, arguments checks, global settings adjustment, etc.).

• Multithreading functions

They enable AviSynth to use more than one thread when processing filters. This is useful if you have more than one cpu/core or hyperthreading. This feature is still experimental.

• Version functions

They provide AviSynth version information.

• Runtime functions

These are internal functions which are evaluated at every frame. They can be used inside the scripts passed to runtime filters (ConditionalFilter, ScriptClip, FrameEvaluate) to return information for a frame.
