VirtualDub problem!

[Bigswaffo]

Hi, when i use virtualdub, i use the low-motion codec and everytime, since now, it works. this time it said in about the same place everytime that it failed due to an unspecified error. any help would be appreciated. :P

it may be a corrupted portion of the AVI.
I had one today and had to remove a 3 second segment using Vdub.
It went through ok after that
Try using DivFix if its a DivX first ,however.

if it was encoded with mp43, is it divx? well, anyway, i used divfix and all it said was that it said it was done. i assume there were no errors. does divfix fix the errors? thanks.

Yes...DivFix may repair.
To see details of video .
Oen up video in Virtualdub then look at file info.

also, the movie file that i used divfix on, enemy at the gates, i downloaded in two parts and i tried to join them with virtualdub, but it said that it couldn't because "the video streams have different data formats". What's that all about?

Re-encode them again with TMPGE with same settings and they will match.
By the way...DivFix does'nt fix evreything...its not perfect.

thanks for the advice. divfix didn't work, so i used virtual dub and found out which frame was the problem and cut it out. for the joining, i encoded both parts and then joined them. thanks. :P
