Check your setup with GraphEdit to see if you're getting a codec connection failure or other problems.

Just load the AVI with graphedit. It'll tell you exactly what's used, which codec, which splitter, which renderer, and how they're connected.

Dear Sirs, Is there any way to correct an out of sync video and audio avi file once converted from RMVB? I've try using the correct codec it just won't sync. And the original RMVB files codes are as follows:-
Audio: RealAudio COOK 44100Hz stereo [Output 00 (Audio Stream)]
Video: RealVideo 4 800x452 30.00fps 483Kbps [Output 01 (Video Stream)]

Please guide this humble soul. TQ.

I've tried the AVS script and adding this line to it:
Code:

LanczosResize(720,480)


It works. But I seem to notice that there are some frames that get deleted and is instead replaced by gray frames in the MPEG-2 file. Why is this?

Well, if my guide doesn't work try using SUPER with DirectShow option turned on.

Do you actually see grey frames as you play through the AVS script?

Or only after you fed it through an encoder?

When I play the AVS file, it does not have the gray frames. The original file did not have those gray frames, either.

So, only after I fed it through TMPGEnc did it have the gray frames.

Weird, then it's an encoding problem. Try QuEnc vs. TMPGEnc, perhaps?

'Select Streams // Stream List, and you'll see your audio stream, which should be only one. Right-click it, and select FULL PROCESSING MODE. Right click it again, and you can now pick Compression. In the dialog box, pick an audio codec. A typical choice is MPEG LAYER-3 (i.e. MP3). Pick one of the encoding rates. Hit OK to get out of this dialog box.'


Great tutorial! Thank you very much...I accounter a problem when a rmvb file has this type of audio:

Audio: AAC 32000Hz stereo [Output 00 (Audio Stream)]
Video: RealVideo 4 480x360 24.00fps 644Kbps [Output 01 (Video Stream)]


There is no audio stream. Video is OK but no sound.

What should I do?
Thanks in advance

You'll have to save the AAC out and convert it with BeLight.

hi, I also got (1st portion of clip) 5~6 sec of frequent gray frames using virtualdubmod when saving to uncompress avi (90mb->20gb+)
Audio: RealAudio COOK 44100Hz 5ch [Output 00 (Audio Stream)]
Video: RealVideo 4 640x480 29.97fps 415Kbps [Output 01 (Video Stream)]

i got problem extracting the wav too as it comes out 630mb and cannot be played might be due to it has 5 channel?
no matter demux or save wave option. and it also failed if converting to mp3 using lame

but actualy my motive is not trying to save avi thou i trying ways to burn it to dvd to watch on dvd player but i tot this way could works when i made into uncompressed avi then make into DVD

i also tried QuEnc but it won't accept my .avs from rmvb
DirectShowSource("[01][V2].rmvb", fps=29.97, convertfps=true)
----------------------------------------------------
after a few days i tried many possible ways and many software
found out that it is AVIsynth that causes the gray frame (my version 2.5.7)
----------------------------------------------------
my question is:
- do you guys have any idea how to make rmvb into m2v more smoothly?(for making DVD)
- do you guys have any idea how to convert Multichannel RealAudio, 5ch to mp2?(for making DVD)
----------------------------------------------------
i tried alot of software to convert 5ch RealAudio but none works except for Real Audio Wav Recorder which requires to record and play the file.... ^^!
----------------------------------------------------
i tried many software but isn't any luck with 5ch RealAudio
FreeEnc05, QuEnc071, CCE SP(+SP2), Audacity, Goldwave, Super,
BeSweet(BeLight-0.22beta9), EO Video, Avi2Dvd, avi2iso_205a_eng, Cucusoft Mpeg-Mov-Rmvb-Divx-Avi To Dvd-Vcd-Svcd Converter, VSO ConvertXtoDVD, TMPGenc (+Plus+xpress3)
----------------------------------------------------
currently the only way i used is quite dirty (making to DVD)
1)Real Audio Wav Recorder (rawavrecorder) to record the 5ch RealAudio to wav while playing
2a)Load the rmvb into TMPGenc directly(without AVIsynth) using all files and get m2v
2b)Load the Wav into TMPGenc and set to mp2
3)? posting this msg or don't know what to use making DVD
(BUT BUT the TMPGenc sometimes gives error while loading rmvb as video but sometimes don't, depends on luck...hang just end task and retry)
----------------------------------------------------
do i have to go through all this before making into DVD?
any more-straight-forward for "rmvb to DVD" a cool tool?

anyone could help me, thanks ^^!

DVD has to be MPEG2, so you just feed the RMVB, through AVISynth to a MPEG2 encoder and you'll get the appropriate output. It should even do audio at the same time w/o any problems.

Gray frames are usually caused by corrupt data, not a problem with AVISynth. Examine the footage in VDub to see for yourself.

I have converted RMVB with one stereo audio stream (2 channels, each for one language) into AVI (XVID, MP3) successfully.

create an ???.avs file in notepad and put
DirectShowSource("???.RMVB", fps=29.97, convertfps=true)
??? is the same as your ???.RMVB name and in the same directory as your ???.RMVB files.

start VirtualDub and open ???.avs (now .RMVB will play successfuly in VirtualDub). now select Video, full processing, compression, select XVID. then Audio, full processing, Conversion, select LEFT or RIGHT channel, now SAVE AS ???.WAV and you will get .WAV files for the channel you want.

change Audio, source, select the .WAV file you extracted and now you can save as ???.AVI and you got your new .AVI file with only the audio channel you want. This procedure will "guarantee" your audio is in sync with your video !!


or you can use ConvetXtoDVD to feed in video and the two audio files and make it switchable audio on your DVD. Now you have full control which audio to listen while you watch your DVD on your DVD player. Good Luck.

One question. Do you need relaalternative to convert or just to play the rm/rmvb files?

Hi everyone...
I tried out this tutorial because when i play my avi conversions on a avi dvd player, the sound would never be sync with the video, though on the PC it would work perfect...
I do avi conversions of my rmvbs for a friend who likes to watch his animes on the TV. So until i go at his place, i won't know if the sound will be sync at last!!

Okay now is my problem... I tried a couple of conversions by using this tut, everything turned right for 2series up to now but the 3rd series is the one with which i got a problem...

After loading the AVS in VDM and setting all the codec stuffs, when i save (to get the avi) i get this error and it won't convert at all!?



Also below are the rmvb properties:

Audio: RealAudio COOK 44100Hz stereo [Output 00 (Audio Stream)]
Video: RealVideo 4 848x480 23.98fps 380Kbps [Output 01 (Video Stream)]

Note that audio comes before video...!!!

Another difference from the other conversions is when i view the episode (before converting), in VDM ,the video is of very bad quality (the other videos' quality were fine!)

I think i gave all details possible, could you please help me out on this one thanks...

You will need RealAlternative to play OR convert the stuff.

As for 3rd series bad quality... I can't say, maybe some of the filters in VDub may help. Search for filters that improve cartoons/animes?

i already had real alternative installed... i even uninstalled realplayer and reinstalled alternative but no good...

None the less... i somehow sorted out my problem. It came from the codec i chose to encode to avi but still am surprised because it is the first time i got problem with this codec. I use the codec from the divx website, i.e DivX(R)6.2.5 Codec (1 Logical CPU). When i chose another encoder well it turned right, now dvd compatibility is the question...

Anyway, thanks for fast response kschang

It says some of the codecs, such as the YV12, is not installed right and not available to VDubMod. FFDShow, when installed and configured using the VFW config shortcut, should fix that. Look for this YV12 and select "enabled" or whatever choices that is appropriate.

I'm having trouble with virutal dub not being able to find the decompressor for YV12 and I downloaded FFDshow and have configured using VFW but I can't find the YV12 code thingy. Would you be able to tell me where abouts I would be able to find it??
