Just started using VirtualDub, and just started using my new ATI Radeon 8500 DV capture card. The only video files I can open successfully with VirtualDub are those that I've captured in MPEG-1 format. Files encoded in other modes produce the erorr:
MPEG Import Filter: pack synchronization error
I even see the same error when using VirtualDub to open an MPEG-2 file on an SVCD I borrowed from a friend (which would seem to be in a 'proper' format, since it plays successfully on my DVD player).
Are there additional components I need to obtain (besides those included in the VirtualDub distribution) in order to handle a broader range of file types?
Thanks for any help |

Well, first of all, Vdub doesn´t support Mpeg2, you should use instead VirtualdubMpeg2 which is a MOD(ification) and supports this format.
Have you ever tried using Huffyuv to compress your captures? |

Thank you for your replies, and for pointing out that Vdub has no Mpeg2 support. Perhaps I didn't read the documentation thoroughly enough before making some of my assumptions.
I'll check into Huffyuv, which I haven't heard of before; I've just begun delving into the world of video capture, edit, etc.
Thanks again for your help,
Bruce
