H264 to avi?

[dallylama]

I got this meesage when i tried to open the avi file in VirtualDubMod

[jagabo]

There are two basic video systems within Windows: Video For Windows (VFW, old and deprecated but still used by many programs) and DirectShow. VirtaulDubMod requires a VFW decoder for h.264. Ffdshow includes an h.264 decoder for VFW. Start -> All Programs -> ffdshow -> VFW codec configurateion -> codecs...

dallylama, would you mind telling us
why have you transformed a 1280x720 h264 MKV
into a 1280x720 h264 AVI I do not see your point.
If your goal is to playback your TV-show episode on
a DivX-capable standalone, then you have been on a wrong path.

Becaus i could'nt attach subtitles to the MKV file

dallylama - what is your end goal?

Do you want to play the .mkv file on a PC with subtitles? or Do you want to be able to play this on a stand-alone DVD player?

What format are your subtitles in (what file extension)?

[dallylama]

I have the original MKV file- I want to burn it with ConvertXtoDVD but i can't attach subtitles- even with the software convertXtoDVD the subtitles don't show when i click on the subtitles button.
the subtitles- ssa.

OK - So you want to burn your MKV (with ssa subs) onto a DVD so that it plays on a standalone DVD player, correct?

The newer versions of ConvertXtoDVD support both ssa and mkv. Check to see that you have the latest version.

Subs often don't "autoload" with mkv files with this program. You have to manually right click the "0 subtitle stream" (with the menu tree broken out) and it will give you an option to "add subtitle stream"

Note: you will lose quality, because you are doing an encode.

Not to mention the conversion from high def to standard def!

Hi
I have a h264 video, and I have downloaded all2AVI, hoping to convert the video to AVI format, but
I was totally surprised when I looked at its remaining time: it's an hour remained!
any idea?

Alltoavi first converts MKV TO AVI but with the h264 codec. (this takes a long time)

Then you have to encode it again to xvid or divx. (not long)

when it doesn't work out or when you want to give a go to another guide, try this one : guide

Works like a charm, easy, good explained!
