Confirmed, something went wrong during the forum software upgrade.

(VC++ builds also use an external libass, not the one bundled with the plugin)
Thanks, its working. You can close the topic

The topic will be closed once the issue is fixed :-)

Hello! I have again the problem.

This is Aegisub preview

This is Avidemux preview


I think i have the lastest nightly


Can you have a look at this again, please?

The last one is r201211, but this doesn't matter here as both are MinGW builds using bundled libass instead of a system one. The last VC++ build dates back to Nov 2, i.e. if you need the subtitle plugin to work right, you have to choose between sticking with relatively old VC++ nightlies and cross-compiling Avidemux yourself (this is no rocket science but takes time, a Linux installation and a lot of disk space).

If you really want the latest fixes and a working libass but don't want to spend half a day on MXE setup, I could provide a private MinGW build with an external libass.

Sorry but im a fucking dumbass and i didnt understand a thing. If you can give me that mingw with installation instruction, sure thing, Im in.
So u can give me that private mingw build

I am notoriously bad at explaining stuff :-)

The private build has been uploaded to WeTransfer, checksums:

You could also try the latest VC++ nightly. I would not expect the private build to help if the VC++ nightly fails.

To build Avidemux for Windows yourself, you need a Linux (preferably Fedora or Ubuntu/Debian). Install git, clone Avidemux source from https://github.com/mean00/avidemux2, read the documentation, add --with-system-libass as an additional option to bootStrapCrossMingwQt5_mxe.sh in order to use a more current libass from MXE instead of the old version bundled with Avidemux.

The private build has been compiled on Fedora with the command line

bash bootStrapCrossMingwQt5_mxe.sh --64 --mxe-root=/home/eumagga/adm/mxe --with-system-libass --with-system-liba52 --with-system-libmad

It worked the vc++ nightly. Thank you

eumagga0x2a

As expected, thank you for the confirmation.

In case you happened to pick the VC++ nightly from Nov 2, 2020, the project maintainer has kindly uploaded a fresh one (201213) to https://avidemux.org/nightly/vsWin64/, please update. With the latter VC++ nightly, there should not be any need for the private build whatsoever.
