Is there anything i can do or a different proggy i can use that is just as fast and just as simple... please

analyse the avi format and install the apropriate codec

gspot or virtualdubmod will help you analyse - details can be found reading/searching the forum.

[BaybieGurl22]

okay you just confused the crap out of me can i get both those progs.. here and will they fix the non loading files.. or the ones that donit covert properlly

[UncasMS]

you will find hints on how to use them when searching for them through this boards search button.

www.google.com will help you finding the tools

i was driving at this:

you seem to miss some codecs for the avis you want to convert.

if you want to check your existing files which codecs were used creating the file, then gspot or virtualdubmod will help.

if in doubt which codec to install or where to find the codec: go to my page (click the dvd guide button) and download tsunamis filterpack 399.

this pack contains most necessary codecs you'll need

thanks alot ill try it out

[BaybieGurl22]

that told me nothing.... nothing at all is there a prog you can suggest to encode .. or something

[UncasMS]

avi to mpeg-1 can be done with tmpeg or dvd2svcd

[BaybieGurl22]

i think im gonna cry!!!

it doesnt seem to matter what i do i have some files that encode properlly and some that dont.. i have X-vid files that the only thing i can load them into is.. "mainconcept mpeg encoder" and those mess up at the end about the last half hour of the movie plays only sound the vidio freezes.. then i have divx & reg avi files that i can load into tmpgenc but then when i convert the it will encode the video with o sound and then for the entire length of the movie there will be all black at the end.. like it doubles the size but there is no sound in any... and then there are about 3 files that i was acctually able to set up sucessfully... i really need some help here i dont know what the hell im doing wornd i set up all the codec i ran g-spot and it tells me that i have everything i cannot for the life of me ever get virtual dub to work no ,matter how hard i try im fine with mpgs. and dvd's but my god i cannot get this avi crap.... please please please.. in dumb blonde (redhead) terms tell me what i have to do... something that i can understand... TY

Ok, I saw this thread, and I am having a problem similar... Ok, I have an XviD video that I need to convert to mpg1, and I got Virtual Dub Mod like you said to above Uncas.. and I can't figure out how to convert from the XviD to mpg1.

Could you tell me how I have to save it?

thanks.

[UncasMS]

vdMOD was meant for the *analysis* not the conversion part.

load the file into tmpeg or use dvd2svcd (it can create VCD as well) and use either one of those tools to convert your file.

[vic_vega]

OK, first I tried TMPGEnc, and I got this error:

Write Error occured at address 77F536F7 of module 'ntdll.dll' with 00000000.

Then it flips out, and brings up a save/open box, but the entire thing is blank, and white, then when I click cancel (because you can't see anything, it says this):

Read Error Occured at Address 0001349E of Module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 00000000.

And then, I tired dvd2svcd like you suggested, and the only thing it was about to convert was .IFO files, and it wouldn't let me click GO.

Man, this TMPGEnc looks promising, and I hear so much about it, but then when you try to use it, it freaks out, and acts like it dosn't know what your trying to accomplish.

[BaybieGurl22]

im sorry vega i dont wanna sound rude but this was my problem.... i understand your having issues but the are not really realated to mine please port your own topic thank you

Based on your questions and statements, it's obvious (at least to me) that the various files you're having trouble with are files you've downloaded - not files that you've created. As such, you might fare better by posting your question(s) in the "P2P" sub-forum here, since it was created specifically for such posters and postings...

[UncasMS]

@ vic_vega

if you want to transcode an avi to mpeg1/2 you will need to have the codec installed, that was used creating this very file.

would you have the codec installed?

if not, do so and retry

if so, maybe demuxing sound and video from your avi might lead to a solution.

tmpeg has problems with some kind of vbr sound streams.
thus it might turn out worth your while to convert your avi's soundstream back to WAVE and then feed the video only and wave file into tmpeg SEPARATELY!


@ baybiegurl22

sometimes similar problems can be solved within the same thread.
moreover, we didnt see any further input from you on your latest
progress.


@ setarip

please spare us your *speculations*

if you want to help, do so.

if not stay away from postings/problems like this one but dont try to tell everyone else how you think this forum should work!

I guess you overlooked "baybiegurl22's previous post:

In light of the fact that the posters to this thread, yourself included, offered no response to "baybiegurl22's" post that I've quoted, That's exactly what my post was intended to do - Offer help, by directing the poster to tha sub-forum where, if nothing else, she/he will undoubtedly receive a "warmer reception" from posters with whom she/he undoubtedly has more in common...


Have a nice day ;>}
