ok so i download hitch off of a torrent site and it plays fine and perfect quality, it takes up 1.36gb on disk and is split into two parts both running about 1 hr long. I wanted to put it onto a dvd that would play in standard dvd players and computers i was following the guide available for this at http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/convert_avi_to_dvd.cfm I got all the way to the step where it says to join the files if they are in two parts using vdub so i began to follow the guide available here http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/virtualdub_join_avi.cfm well i followed the guide but when i open the first or the second clip it gives me this message "VirtualDub has detected an improper VBR audio encoding in the source AVI file and will rewrite the audio header with standard CBR values during procesing for better compatability. Thismay introduce up to 217ms of skew from the video stream. If this is unacceptable, decompress the "entire" audio stream to an uncompressed WAV file and recompress with a constant bitrate encoder. (bitrate 112.1 +/- 19.5 Kbs)" the ms of skew varies and so does the final bitrate it asks me to recompress with..... so whatever i click ok and then preview the movie and the audio is verrrry skewed from the video so its not worth it in addition to this when i click to apend the avi with the second part of the movie i get this message "Cannot append segment "C:\Documents and Settings\Hassan\Desktop\hitch.dvdrip.xvid\hitchdvdrip,xvid.cd2.avi": The audio streams have different sampling rates (16146.00000 vs. 16224.00000)" basically im just trying to get these Xvids onto a playing dvd i dont care if they are joined or not anyone that can help me with this problem or a way around it woudl have my gratitude forever and ever
This Means that you must decompress the audio in Both of the Files First before Joining them.... You can do this with Virtual Dub... Load in the First File and set the "Video" to Direct Stream Copy" and set the "audio" to "Full Processing Mode" and then go to "file" to "Save as AVI" and Give the File a name and save it.... Then Repeat this with the Second Part and After you have done this you can then use the New Files to join together in V-Dub useing the Instructions you were useing.... The Files will be quite a Bit bigger after decompressing the audio but that has no effect on how big it will be After encodeing to Mpeg-2/DVD..... Cheers
ahhhhhh minion ur awesome dude, thank you so much for helping me out, now one was able to explain this to me except you alright im off to try this, the bigger files shouldnt be a problem cus i got plenty of diskspace but i do want to be able to fit them eventually onto a dvd 5 disc...Im sure it will fit, you sound like u know ur shit thanks again man, ill update you after i try this....
