Revision as of 15:56, 20 August 2014
2.60 alpha =
v.2.6.0 ST, 32-bit at SourceForge (still in alpha stage)
Shouldn't a note be put up to encourage people to get this version, something like (in StainlessS's words, here)v2.6 is much better. If you don't like the alpha status, then just don't use 2.6 additional colorspaces or functions - 2.58 compatible stuff is considerably more stable.Raffriff42 05:34, 20 August 2014 (CEST)

Yeah I've thought about doing something like this. Maybe create a page exclusively for AviSynth 2.6 info and add all possible references in hope of convincing people to use 2.6 over 2.5.8?
- IanB: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1629125#post1629125 (note: this was written during the alpha4 phase, maybe some of the things mentioned no longer apply to alpha5?)
As a 2.5.8 replacement 2.6.0 should be just as stable. It passes all current the 2.5 regression tests, while 2.5.8 fails a few due to bugs being fixed and test to expose them being added. Most problems show up in new code, so if you use the new 2.6 features, that is where you might expect to find problems. A lot of people are downloading 2.6. And the only 2.5 bug reports I seem to get are for things broken in 2.5.8 as well, the few 2.6 bug reports are to do with things like YV24 overlay and YV411 text painting. I have most of the API changes mapped out to cover hooks for expected features for 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 like extra colour spaces and threading so that 2.6 plugins won't need to be recompiled. I have a long standing bug in the cache from 2.5.7 that I am working on at present and I intend to do an Alpha 5 release when I finish and test that fix. If Alpha 5 stands up without any new bugs I will probably promote it to Release Candidate 1, i.e. 1st Beta release.
- Doom9 thread: Which Avisynth version are you using? - A poll which clearly shows that most people are using 2.6.
I also have my own little rant on this very issue: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1684284#post1684284 - nothing of importance just frustrated that people are still using 2.5.8 and still have the audacity to complain.
Regarding the wiki I never really did anything about it because I don't know what my limits are? I know it's a wiki but I also don't want to overstep any boundaries (if any). Reel.Deal 15:20, 20 August 2014 (CEST)
