I have this divx video, which I want to rip the audio track and encode it to ac3 for DVD authoring. When I rip the audio from the avi file in either vdub, nandub or vdubmod (Save as WAV), it will output a rather small .wav file (45mb). Then I renamed that file to .wma and tried to play it under media player, and it just makes it freez. I also attempted to open it in Steinberb Wavelab and Sony Soundforge without any success. Weird thing is that when I rename the audio track to .divx, WMP plays the file just fine. I also tried to rip the audio track with the option "Full processing mode" and this is the error I got: "Error initializing audio stream decompression: The requested conversion is not possible. Check to make sure you have the required codec (Microsoft Audio Codec)" "AVIOutputWAV: The Handle is invalid." Here is the information regarding the audio track that Gspot gave me for this video: Stream name: divx (same as wma) (0x0161) DivX Networks Bitrate:64 kb/s (32/ch, stereo) The video was encoded with DivX 4 (OpenDivX)
I found out what the problem was, I didn't have the infamous divx_audio_402 codec installed to properly decode the auido.
