    XVID sound problem

    When i use virtualdub to extract the audio from the movie asterix and obelix of the movie IT, it shows the following error "The requested audio compression is not compatible with the input format" is there a way i can fix this???

    Movie specs are:

    videostream

    Frame size 544x304, 23.976 fps
    # of frames (time) 135160 (01:33:57)
    Decompressor XviD MPEG-4 codec
    Number of key frames 1433

    Audio stream

    Sampling rate 48000Hz
    Channels 2 (stereo)
    Sampling precision 0-bit ????
    Compression Unknown (tag 2000)
    Preload skew 2304 samples (0,05s)
    # of frames 58722
    min/avg/max/total frames size 894/2303/2303 (132124)


    I don't get the 0-bit part???


    Maybe someone has a clue how to get the sound working again??

    Thanks!!

    "Compression Unknown (tag 2000)"

    The audiostream is in .AC3 format, which the standard versions of VirtualDub cannot process.

    Use NanDub instead...

      Thanks, I tried Nandub and it does not work

      I'm working with WINNT and untill this AC3 sound came up I never had any problems with NAN or Virtual dub.

      De two programs do not seem to see the sound codec and it does not show up under Audio\Compression.
      I have the AC3 sound working in Mediaplayer and I can watch the avi with sound now.

      BUT, I would like to covert the avi into Svcd.
      Ik have done this about 125 times and with success.
      But Virtualdub and NANDub do not seem to see this AC3 codec. it's not in the compressionlist. Nandub is giving me the following error "ACM failled to suggest the audio decompression format"

      Thanks for your help!!

        Solved my own problem!!!!

        Virtualdub ac3 is a modified version.

        Go and get VirtualDub_AC3.zip load movie and save wav/ac3 sound to disk. Both video and audio in Direct Stream Copy modus.

        Get a tool named ac3dec.exe with it's GUI ac3decgui.exe and covert the wav/ac3 you made with virtualdub AC3.exe to a real wave.

        When finished, load the wav back into Virtualdub in the audio pulldown menu and save the movie in Direct Stream Copy (video and audio) to disk.

        Load saved movie into TMPGEnc and it can be converted into SVCD (with sound)>

        You can also load the wav into TMPGEnc but I don't know if it will go out of sync.

        A pain in the ass but atleast it works.
