What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected to see that AVISynth was installed successfully.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

1.02.1 on a Windows Home Server (Windows 2003)

If you are transcoding a media file, which engine are you using (mencoder, 
avisynth/mencoder, tsmuxer?)

AVISynth is not available as a transcoder, and I believe it should be (an 
option)

If the media file is in error (or does not play flawlessly), what are the 
codec informations of this file (you can use following program: 
mediainfo.sourceforge.net) ?

n/a 

Please provide any additional information below and PLEASE JOIN debug.log 
file !!

see above

As I know, this prog is not bundled with AVISYNTH installation. Check 
FAQ/Readme. 
You can download and install it manually.

if you have installed AviSynth, and ps3mediaserver does not recognize it, go 
look
into the windows registry. I'm checking the installation based on the presence 
of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AviSynth

On 64bit, it's not there.  Its one level
deeper.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\AviSynth
