Stardent AVS X Bitmap Image Format | AviSynth | Video Files |
AVS ( AVS) files are encoded using ASCII and contain instructions for video post-processing via AviSynth. AviSynth is an open source frame-server editing software package that enables users to edit media almost in a non-linear fashion. AVS files are tracable to text format with plug-in support.
Converting standard audio and video formats such as AVI, MP4, MKV, etc., into another format can be conveniently conducted using the modules of AviSynth. This makes it highly compatible with other operations such as encoding and color transfer which is done via a powerful scripting system composed of external DLLs, VB scripts, and support syntax components managed through AVS files.

Features
AVS files are useful since they enable users to use the compilation of different script instructions consisting of audio/video frames editing and importing the clip onto the timeline, turning it into one interlinked project in which the transitions, color correction, effects, encoding, or decoding can be performed seamlessly. The user can also test filters, display original/final frames, view audio streams, capture image sequences, embed specific texts on pictures, detect scene changes, and modify TIVTC flags.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .AVS) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .AVS extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .AVS file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .AVS extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .AVS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .AVS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .AVS file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .AVS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .AVS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .AVS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
