File Issue Using Any Video Converter ???

[musicmad]

Hi

I recently downloaded a video in Ogg format and tried converting it to MPEG4 using Any Video Converter so as to burn to DVD. But when selecting the Ogg file inside AVC it won't highlight to add the file. I'm assuming AVC can't handle Ogg files? i am wrong.


Mac OS X 10.5.


Thanks.

ffmpegX, handbrake, Hybrid (if you know how to compile stuff), basically everything that uses libav in the background should work,..

The avc docs should say whether it handles ogg video. It should ... they did say "any video" ...

Some of those dl's ... actually a disturbing number ... were made with computers that had flaky non microsoft codec packs installed. That's often the problem. Many encoders expect to see certain standard codecs with a particular format. DVD authoring programs are particluarly bad forn this.

Handbrake is good for this, but my go to program for something like this is avidemux. It'll handle just about anything, though it's definitely not as easy to use as handbrake. I've used it for this a number of times.

Hasn't always worked though, and I haven't tried ffmpegx. Handbrake will encode to mp4 using ffmpeg though.

Thanks for the feedback, will try it on.
