Cropped AVI

[armaha]

Is there any thing I can do to cropped video, to make it watcheable?

You might need to provide more info on what you are trying to do, in order to get a response to this, e.g. watchable on what?

Well, this avi file is "cropped" I think. I can watch it but no sound, and its shaking/wobbling and looks like in fast-forward. I just want to make it normal, or smooth. As any other video file.

if there is no sound there are 2 options

You don't have the correct Audio codec

or if you downloaded this file from P2P

There might not be a sound stream on it..

[armaha]

OK. I did download it from P2P (should've I posted it there?) and I have all codec according Gspot, video encoding Xvid or is it 4CC code, whatever. I don't really care much about sound for now. But the file itself is croppy or shaky or wobbly, I don't know how to describe it.

Try installing the latest version of ffdshow, i had this problem when playing a DivX video (still have when i don't have it installed) just see what happens.

P.S can you play other DivX films without this happening?

Thanks zx50, that helped! I wish I could shake your hand :))) but when I burn a VCD will it be normal? Without distortion?

[zx50]

If you mean when you convert it to VCD will it still be shaking, then it should be okay. People convert to vcd all the time. When you convert it to VCD you are making the DivX file into something different therefore the media player will see the file as something else and therefore won't shake. (i think it's an incompatibility issue with DivX 5 and media player).

P.S ffdshow stops the shaking of anything in WMP9 so therfore i'm almost certain it will be alright, but i've never made a VCD before just avi's :)
