I didn't know whether to make a new topic or post this on the submission I got the script from. I've been trying to find the best way to encode Mega Man X games, and while Googling information on TASBlend, I came across a small script from the link at the bottom of the post. The problem is, I keep getting an error from AVISynth (I don't know what "c" means). I've included my script, and was wondering if someone would know what I am doing wrong. A solution is much appreciated! 
AVISource("Mega Man X.avi")
  function Blend(clip c, float oa)  {
  Interleave(
  \ Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 0), SelectEvery(c, 8, 1), level=int(round(oa * 257))),
  \ Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 2), SelectEvery(c, 8, 3), level=int(round((1.0 - oa) * 257))),
  \ Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 4), SelectEvery(c, 8, 5), level=int(round((1.0 - oa) * 257))),
  \ Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 6), SelectEvery(c, 8, 7), level=int(round(oa * 257))))
  }
  Blend(c,2.0/3)

Don't mix the main program with the function declarations. c is only defined inside the function. 
Language: Avisynth
AVISource("Mega Man X.avi")
Blend(2.0 / 3)


function Blend(clip c, float oa)  {
        Interleave(     Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 0), SelectEvery(c, 8, 1), level=int(round((      oa) * 257))),
        \               Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 2), SelectEvery(c, 8, 3), level=int(round((1.0 - oa) * 257))),
        \               Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 4), SelectEvery(c, 8, 5), level=int(round((1.0 - oa) * 257))),
        \               Layer(SelectEvery(c, 8, 6), SelectEvery(c, 8, 7), level=int(round((      oa) * 257))))
}
