Cannot change Huffyuv settings

[kodec]

I want to set it back to predict left but no matter what I do, after I save it and reopen the dialog box to check it, it's always stuck back on predict median. Anything to do here? (VirtualDub, Win 7... )

[kodec]

And now on top of that I can't even direct stream copy the captured VHS Huffy, something i did 100s times before. It says something like

The source video stream uses a compression algorithm which is not compatible with AVI files. Direct stream copy cannot be used with this video stream

Anyone?

I have tried uninstalling and installing the kodec pack but nothing helps, all of the sudden nothing works as it had worked before.

The second one sounds like you opened it with ffmpeg plugin. Try selecting "audio/video interleaved" when you open the file.

Thanks shekh, that was it... what have I don to change the default setting... Anyway, do you happen to know perhaps where to set it back as the default?

[shekh]

Maybe there is something to change permanently if you tick "ask for extended options", if that plugin is ffmpeginputplugin.vdplugin
Not sure what you have.
