ASF File problem.. need help!

[chadzero]

Hello,
I have a ASF file. But its not like a normal type one. the asf when u play it you cannot fast forward, and when the video is playing, its times is at 0.00 sec.

Anyway, i searched this forum for a asf conversion and found one, I downloaded virualdub 1.3c and try to open my asf file this is the error i got.


what do i do???

It's apparent that you are not the creator of this .ASF file, so you might want to obtain it again, from the original source, assuming you are legally entitled to do so...

well the file is a stream file from online tv of this band called quarashi. note that this is not illgeal as i asked them for permisson.
so what do u recommend?? is it impossible for me to convert cause i dont own it????

"note that this is not illgeal as i asked them for permisson."

Try using "ASFTools", or "asfindxr.exe" (also known as) "Windows Media ASF Indexer" to make the file "seekable"...

[chadzero]

ok i used ASFTools to make it "seekable". It says its fine but i cant "seek" but it shows the time "34.56". And there is no video anymore..
what now?

[setarip]

Have you tried the alternative, "asfindxr.exe" (also known as) "Windows Media ASF Indexer", that I suggested?

[chadzero]

i already had it from some while ago.., i tried to run it it said i had to have the latest WMP so im upatdin now

Best of luck!

Hmmm, ok i got the WMP going and the progarms running, but on Mircosofts site they said that the ASF index was intergated into something else, can u give me the link to "asfindr.exe"

[setarip]

Simply perform a Googlesearch for "asfindr.exe"...
