Hi, I am trying to convert XVID to DV, so I can put it on a DV tape.
I have opened the sourceXVID file, set the video compression to the Panasonic DV codec, left the audio settings 'as is' and then selected save as avi and the following error occurs;
===============================
|Cannot Start Video Compression: |
| |
|The source image format is not acceptable.|
|(error code -2) |
===============================
Note: the video does play in virtual dub. |

DV has to have a framesize of 720x480 (NTSC) or 720x576 (PAL)... if your file does not have this resolution you have to resize first...
DV audio has to be uncompressed WAV (32 kHz or 48 kHz) if im right.

Thanks Stephanv,
I assume I also need to check the interlace option on the resize.
Couldn't see how to adjust the audio, but the Panasonic DV codec is working fine. with the audio set to direct stream copy.
Getting some errors with bad frames, guess I'll figure out the best way to handle them with a bit of trail and error. |

Does anyone know the maths to determine the pixels to allocate when creating black bars at top and bottom to allow for the change in aspect ratio.
Source: 592x240 (2.47:1) [=37:15]
Target: 720 * 576 (aspect ratio is 1.33:1 I think) |
