Cutting out a single black frame, possible??

[rrwmc]

My TMPGEnc mpgs made from AVIs often have a few single black frames in them.

Is it possible to cut only them out without re-encoding?

I'm sorry if this has been explored. I've searched under "black flash", "drop frame" etc. The closest I seem to be able to do is make about half a second dissapear with TMPGEnc's merge and cut. This is worse than the black frame. My mpgs are not just for recreational viewing otherwise I wouldn't bother you all. I use PIII 800Mhz, 7200 RPM 40G HDs, 382Mb RAM, 133Mhz FSB, TMPGEnc 2.0. Am I asking too much or getting something wrong? Of course I'd rather not get the black frames in the first place but I can't seem to avoid it. Thanks - Rod.

PS. sorry for posting this in in conversion as well.

I don't think it is possible without converting to AVI and re-encoding. After converting to AVI, use Virtual Dub to remove the offending frame, then re-encode. Sorry but I think that is the only way. Does anybody else know if it can be done?

Try ifilmedit.

You can get it under the tools section.

I use it often to cut away a few bad frames.
