| I would like to see support for Variable Bit Rate Sound. There are a lot of people encoding VBR Sound, and it is often done improperly. Currently, VirtualDub merely un and re -compresses the sound with a constant bitrate. This usually has the effect of misaligning the sound with the video. Also, support for encoding properly in VBR Sound would be appreciated. Thanks, theimplord |

| It ain't gonna happen. The AVI file format was written in stone a long time ago, and it absolutely doesn't support VBR audio. Those people who are trying to force VBR audio into AVIs are making broken movies. Hardly a day goes by that someone doesn't post here complaining about a broken movie they downloaded from Kazaa. But if you really want to use VBR audio, there are lots of other formats which do support it: - MPEG - OGM - Matroska - Windows Media (WMV) The original VirtualDub can only produce AVI files, but I think VirtualDubMod can make OGM and Matroska files. |
