    it plays fine on any player e.g windows media player, classic media player, real player.

    Ok, so it plays fine via dshow, that means that it should also convert fine via dshow. Conclusion therefor would be that WinAVI doesn't read files via dshow or it doesn't do it well.

    You could try frameserving via AVISynth using directshowsource(). Otherwise I guess use something else to convert.

    Are you 100% sure that wmp works though? Because Media Player Classic has built in real support as of course does real player.
