i've got a few movies in avi-format, that i can view in window-media player. according to g-spot all the codecs are installed on my pc. when i want to encode into mpg with TMP, however, the problem starts: the picture stops after a couple of frames, but the counter continues. i have also tried to re-write the avi file with virtual-dub, but there the same problem. to make it even more complicated: after that, sometimes it is not possible anymore to view the file with media-player. i am new to movies, but so far, it has not been much fun... maybe somebody can help me out. thanks!
yes i have, with various settings, but there the same result: after a few frames/secs. the picture blocks, but the counter continues.
Did you set the video to direct stream copy? When you try to make mpegs do you make back ups of the originals? I dont know if this will work for you but on another thread, this person who had a similar probelm while trying to view his movies somehow got it to work by watching them through real player. Its a longshot but give it a try. Ok just to get everything clear, what do you mean by re-writing the avis in vdub? Can you be more specific?
i have tried various things with vdub: tried to make a copy with direct streaming, tried to save as avi, using different codecs. also tried to save without sound, but always after a few frames the pictures freezes.
