Hello,
I'm having horrible problems converting MPEG1 files to AVI (DIVX).
No matter what codec I use, the result is the same.
1.
- Video is recompressed with any codec
- Audio is recompressed with any codec
After about 30% is done the compression stops, the fps drops to 0. This never changes (I waited 2 hours), Virtualdub crashes, I can't abort the compression or close Virtualdub.
2.
- Video is recompressed with any codec
- Audio stream is copyied
After about 30% is done, I get a SYNC ERROR. I don't know what that means.
It seems to mee that in both cases the SYNC ERROR occures, but only when audio is not compressed, this causes no crash.
I tried many different files, allways the same result.
Some other programms (XMPEG, etc.) did the job, but I need to recomress many files, so I need the good job management of Virtualdub.
Please help
Thx in advance

Are you using under video options full processing mode?
Leave audio with direct stream copy, unless you got VBR.
Did you select the correct codec (Divx 5.0.2) ??? |

yes and yes,
I tried all DivX Codecs (3-5) and various others (full processing).
I also tried direct stream copy and full processing of audio. It did not work.
It seems to be bug.. or maybe something else I can't put my finger on
any other suggestions?  |

I am pretty certain your MPEG is corrupt. Load it in TMPEGEncoder, 'file' 'MPEG tools' and try to demux the audio and video from the file ... i am sure TMPEG will report a broken file ....

thx for the tip, but as I said, other tools did the job...
TmpegEnc demuxed the stream perfectly, the generated files are complete, no problem at all
any other Idea.... ??
Maybe demux all 170 files and then recompress?? Is this possible? |

Well, I converted Mpeg1 many times with no problems.
Try using Avisynth. |

AGH! I have this same exact problem when using VirtualDub. It happens when recompressing AVI files too, but especially when I am trying to recompress MPEG-1 files. I typically capture vhs to MPEG-1 for my work, because I don't have a huge amount of hard disk space to play around with, and half the time I get this same weird problem. If I re-encode the MPEG-1 file and try again, it sometimes works. Actually this problem makes one of my computers physically reboot when it gets to 30%, but I get the same problem on my other computer.
If anyone has any idea why this could be happening, I would really like to know, although I suppose I will just switch over to using TmpegEnc for now. It really is an annoying bug.  ;;; |

Try saving them with Huffyuv without sound.
Then load the file and compress it as usual.
You also may use VirtualdubMOD to save it as a PNG image sequence. |
