wish list: winff should include a newer ffmpeg to support avs files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. add .avs file to input queue
2. select preset/profile
3. click "convert"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
-I'd expect winff/ffmpeg to encode the video
-error is "....avs: Invalid data found when processing input"
-Avanti for example will work with the same avs-file as input

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
-WinFF 1.4. 2 (3.23.2012)
-ffmpeg version N-38632-g4cda8aa Copyright (c) 2000-2012 the FFmpeg developers 
built on Mar  8 2012 02:38:08 with gcc 4.5.0 20100414 (Fedora MinGW 4.5.0-1.fc 
-Windows XP SP3

Please provide any additional information below.

Using a different version of FFMPEG (from Avanti) .avs as input will work.
However, with this different version the WinFF profiles do not work (aac codec 
changes.)

Thanks for reporting. Indeed, a Winff update with a newer ffmpeg is due (and 
eminent)

Can you please explain what you mean by the last line of comment 1?

codec changes.)

This means:
-I copy a newer version of ffmpeg.exe in WinFF folder
-MP4 profiles with "-acodec libfaac" will no longer work, because this codec 
was removed from FFMPEG. (at least in the newer version I tried)
-consequence: I have to change all these profiles to "-acodec aac -strict 
experimental"

I am pretty sure (can not test as I don't run Windows), that Winff 1.5.0 
includes a ffmpeg with AVS support.

Nope, I just downloaded 1.5 on Windows 7 and tried an AVS file and I still get 
the same error:
"Invalid data found when processing input"
