Loading mpg or m2v file...

[Drakng]

Can someone tell me how to load a dvd- compliant mpg or m2v file into virtual dub., the reason being I want to add a vobsub or ssa subtitle onto it. Or is there another way to do it? Help please.

Try Virtual Dub mod.

No Go, same as virtualdub .It won't accept.Any new ideas?

[Tommyknocker]

What is the error message?

[Drakng]

Mpeg import: pack sycronization error!

That is exactly what happens when you try to load an MPEG-2 file into the old Virtual Dub. Did you completely uninstall the old version before adding the mod version?

Uninstalled? There is no installation involved, so how to unistalled.I just extract the program to a folder and run. And it works all the time or must I cleaned the registry of all reference to the so-called old virtualdub.My version is 1.54. I don't know whether virtualdub or mod can handled mpeg2 or m2v. I hope it could. Is there another way to load it in, maybe thru' avisynth . I need it to add subtitle

You don't really need to remove one version of VirtualDUB to use the other.

I have both installed in two separate directories and use the one I need depending on the in-file.

Virtual Dub mod can handle MPEG-2. That is the "mod". I do not know about .m2v files, but it has no problems with MPEG-2 files.

you could use avisynth.i dont think you can open more then one vob without it,but i would just use gordian knot.
there is an option to add vobsub subtitles.
