    very common error. This indicates bad frame, usually. Same as Audiostream error.

    Use VDub-MP3 to find the bad frames. I have tried to use AviFiXP, DivFix tools, Avi Defreezer, they don't work for me, giving me even worse AVI result.

    Fixing bad frames without losing any audio.

    The 1st guide suggests you remove the bad frames. The 2nd guide suggests you mask the selected bad frames.

    I just tried the the 2nd guide, using TMPGEnc to encode. Original result is I get blank screen and whoosing audio sound starting at the bad frame. It doesn't matter if you get good video/audio after the bad frames. After trying the 2nd guide, I see the video but no audio (where the bad frames start), not what I expected what the guide says.

    So, alternatively, I somewhat follow the guide since I understand the logic, use VDub-MP3 to find the bad frames (can be in multiple segments). It will create badframes.log in C drive. Open the file and locate the start and end bad frame. Put it in Source Range of TMPGEnc. Cut the selected frames, and encode. Note that I use the original AVI, I don't need Virtualdub to resave to a new AVI (which is waste of time and space). Cutting bad frames depend on what scenes it is, whether it's matching video/audio sequence, so it's up to your discretion.

    Maybe you have better luck with 2nd guide. Let me know if it works for you, w/o losing any audio that is.

    FYI, VDub-MP3 is not 100% reliable. I tried on one AVI, where 75% has bad mixture of video and audio, sometimes by itself. It reported certain segments that are bad, but I know I can play it, and even successfully encode that section. So you have to test, test, test.

    If none of this works for you, try redownloading your AVI again, or go to different source.

    Good luck,

    So you're saying that the 2nd guide works for you!? Not losing audio? How does the video look like?

    As for Movie #1, I saw that error b4, but I don't remember what I did. Looks like it's displaying the useless Assembly language code along with the system and memory registers. Try to look at crashinfo.txt and see what it says.

    Look at the Crash reason on your capture: "Integer Divide-by-Zero". Most likely a programming error that the author forgot to take care of some of the exceptions. So maybe you should ask the author or anyone on how to resolve this problem.

    How 'bout try checking for video freeze again. And this time, notice the number of frames it had processed. If it crashes again. Reload it, and play it before the crash segment, and see what happens. Use whatever software player, including Virtualdub, to see any difference. Or maybe you can just encode and see what happens.


    As for Movie #2, when you say freeze frames, can the encoded file play past them or it's just blank screen and/or no audio. Does the source have any problem on that segment? If the encoded file is blank, you can stop the encoding. Raise the priority of the Directshow filter to 0, doesn't work, try raising again. Default is -1. Remember to reset it when you're done.
