Version in DLL
it is not possible to query vis_avs.dll using nsis to check the installed version of avs. i was about to add this to my installer, since i get many emails from people asking me why the presets don't work. the problem is usually an old version of avs.

would be nice if i could use GetDLLVersion to check which version is installed. if the next version of the avs dll supports this, an empty result could still produce the message that it is NOT the latest.

thanks!

In the meantime, you can use the filesize as a check... the chance that two version of AVS have exactly the same DLL filesize is very small :).

Will add to the wishlist.
