I'm trying to change an AVI's frame height from 720x544 to 720x416, I've been told that you can do this through virtualdubmod by going into video>filters>add>resize and then entering the values there. Whilst this works I'm having trouble saving the AVI. For some reason no matter what options I tick virtualdubmod splits the files into anything upto 700 different files comprising of each of the videos frames. I obviously just want the one video file with the corrected frame size. How do I do this?
Instead of vdubmod, use the regular Vdub, or possibly Avidemux. Not sure why Vdubmod is doing that, you must have a setting wrong somewhere.
Is there anything I could be doing wrong in Virtualdubmod? I don't want to download any more programs if I can help it.
If I don't tick that Virtualdubmod resizes the frames but it makes the AVI into a massive file (around 16GB!) but if I tick that box so that I can limit the file size it does not keep the AVI as one file and I'm left with several hundred different files like I mentioned. Is there any option to keep the output file as a single file and limit the size of it?
You're misunderstanding something basic (we've all been there). If you don't set a video compressor for the re-encode (such as divx or xvid) it encodes the file uncompressed RGB which is a massive. Before you save the file, go to video/compression and configure divx or xvid to your liking. OK out and then save.
