I have been using Virtual dub for a long time, and haven't had any problems up 'till now.

I recently aquired a Digital Cam-Corder and have been doing some video work with it.

First time I needed to edit out a few seconds of video from the middle of a captured file I of course tried to do it with Virtual Dub.

Virtual Dub cant load the file because its not "VFW" compatible. What do I need to do to make the file "VFW" compatible, so I can edit it with my favorite editing program????

AFAIK NONE of the software I have paid good money for (Video Studio 5.0 ect) can do anything but trim the beginning or end of a file, they cannot remove frames or sequences of frames the way Vdub can.

Forgot to mention:

OS= Windows 2k sp3
System=1.2 gig Athlon & 1.2 gig Pentium both with 160 gig 7500 rpm drives and 512 meg pc133 ram.

Use Avisynth with Virtualdub and your worries are over. www.avisynth.org has the version you need. Once you download and run the install.reg simply create a file with a *.avs extension. Inside that file all you need is one line.

avisource("my.avi")

Open the *.avs file in Virtualdub and compress to your hearts content. You can even do video processing such as deinterlace or cleanup with AVISYNTH.

Since Im doing the capturing and the rendering (and playing the avi files between steps) on this computer, I'de have thought the codec was here..
