    Well it probably doesnt because virtualdub probably wouldnt have been able to tell you anything about the file at all! Well, tell me one thing, does it play in windows media player??

    So you tried to uncompress the audio in virtualdub or did you try to frameserve from virtualdub???

    tryed that and got the following error
    the requested audio compression is not compatible with the input format
    check that the sampling rate and channel count of the input match those of the requested format

    Oh great!! I think there are other ways around that. One thing to try and sorry if you already read this somewhere else but in TMPGEnc, click option - environmental settings. click the "vfapi plug-in" tab and look at the list for directshow. when you find it right click and give it a higher priority until its top of the list. Now try open the file~!

    I have been having the same problem, I'm sure with the same file. I have done everything listed above and it now gets 11% into encoding and suddenly crashes giving the message "integer divide by zero" Any additional assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Try the panasonic mpeg-1 encoder or something! There are a few encoders you can try like avi2vcd aswell!

    Hi, the 2000 tag is indeed Dolby Digital AC3 audio. There is a VirtualDub kludge( isnt there always) called VirtualDub Ac3 . Open the AVI, select Direct Stream Copy and when you select save WAV you will see 2 options, WAV or AC3 audio. Select Ac3 ( ie, MyMovie.ac3). Now you can converts this to a PCM wav file using Px3 Ac3 converter or any one of a number of utilities. PX3 will also Normalise and/or boost your audio at the same time. I have used both of these for dolby DivXs and they work just fine.

    Get a copy of virtualdub AC3 from here....
    Download the VirtualDub Pack (its the past one on the list I think)cos it has a couple of other useful Vbdub mods in it.
    http:// www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/virtualdub.html
    Get a copy of Px3 ac3>WAV converter from here...
    http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/ac3towav.html

    Put the VDUB AC3.exe in yr VDUB directory where the others live. Run the VirtualDub Ac3.exe and open yr AVI as normal. Select Audio->direct stream copy, then File->Save AS, and you will see file types .wav, .ac3, save as <name>.ac3
    Now run Px3 converter and load the .ac3 file, select yr save directory and optionally check Normalise(good Idea) and amplify if you want. Click convert.... VOILA a nice big WAV. Then you can either save a direct stream copy (no audio) of yr avi video, or simply use the original .avi. Open TMPGenc and select the original avi or yr saved video as video source, then yr .wav file as the audio source. Proceed as u want with settings and let 'er rip!!!
    Hope this helps
