I slapped together a quick-and-dirty MPEG-2 version of 1.5.5. Hope it works.

hi,
a simple question. Why this addone is not part of the source head revision from VD. I use this since some month without problems.

This is not an official release of VirtualDub. It's my own hacked-together version of the published source code (which Avery Lee so graciously makes available to everyone from his site).

Both this program and VirtualdubMod allow me to edit an mpeg-2 file. I suppose that there is a good reason why I can't then Directstream Copy -> mpeg-2. What is it?

VirtualDub can only create AVI files, and there's no way to put MPEG1 or MPEG2 video directly into an AVI container. It must always be recompressed with an AVI compatible codec. But if you only want to cut or join MPEGs, TMPGEnc has some very good tools for this.

You haven't been listening. I say again, "VirtualDub can only create AVI files." 
TMPGEnc can convert AVI to MPEG.

Hello, why no integrated AC3 handling in this release? I used it in mpeg2-ac3-1.5.4 and I found it very useful... |

The internal AC-3 support of the old versions was severely limited. It couldn't decode AC-3 from AVI files, and it couldn't direct stream copy AC-3 from MPEG files. I ditched it in favor of an external decompressor, so the above things are possible now.

uhm ok, but can it work together with ac3filter (the one from http://ac3filter.sourceforge.net) I already use to play ac3 audio? it looks like an ACM codec and I can't have two acm's for the same format as far as I know... |

You can have as many as you like, but only one will get used (the one with the highest priority in the system) in a DirectShow app like Media Player. Anyway if you only have two speakers, you don't need the ac3filter since AC3ACM is perfectly adequate for stereo AC-3 playback.
OTOH if you do have a surround system, I believe it's possible for the two codecs to coexist in harmony by means of a registry tweak. (Not for the squeamish...)
