I've moved you to the Newbie/General Forum.

What conversion are you doing?

[bugster]

Virtualdub or virtualdub_mod.

If you want avi output (divx/xvid) will filter then encode directly. If you want to encode to mpeg 1 or 2, it will filter then frameserv to the encoder (well, most encoders anyway).

i'm just trying to convert avi files to VOB files. But most of the time the picture is too dark.

You should use TMPGEnc Plus to adjust the brightness/contrast and convert to DVD MPEG format. Then use IfoEdit's DVD Author=>Author new DVD function to make the VOBs.

If you are using avisynth there are filters to do
this. Also, if this is a common poblem for you, there
are hardware color correction devices on the
market.

[mikesbytes]

All of the above will do it.

What format r u encoding to ?

TV video usually look darker on a monitor. Keep that in mind.
