Avisource uses VfW codecs and the VfW framework only. Think of it like VirtualDub but in Avisynth. As long as the AVI in question doesn't have any particularly funky hacks, it will always have frame-accurate seeking.
Directshowsource uses Directshow codecs and is hence the Avisynth equivalent of Windows Media Player. It's usually NOT frame-accurate, but it does support VFR, kind of; either through converting to CFR (convertfps=true) or by just reading all frames and ignoring timecodes.
DSS2 is Haali's implementation of Directshowsource. It has the advantage of being frame-accurate, but only supports VFR by converting it to CFR; at least that was the case when I tried it last time, it might have changed.
