  1. Hi.

    Anybody here have problems opening mpg files with virtual dub?
    whenever I try to use virtualdub to open my .mpg file, it gives me an error msg: cannot determine file of type "c:\temp\testing.mpg"

    However, I can play that file using any notmal mpg players.
    I have also tried mpeg corrector, but to no avail.

    Vdub opens MPEG-1 files but not MPEG-2. If you have a MPEG-2, create a dvd2avi project, convert it with VFAPI and open that .avi in Vdub.

  3. oh really? I didn't think my avi is mpeg2. I can play it in win media player, bsplay and cinematograph without any problems.

    Oh ya, TMPGEnc also can't open my testing.mpg file.

    anyway, I can't find the VFAPI in the converts section. It isn't a program?

  4. oh ok, i geddit ....
    VFAPI is something like a "phugin" for TMPGEnc to open MPEG-2 files ...

    Hmm ... I learnt something new today. ;-p

    Thanks Truman

    kenny, You said, you have problems to open mpg files with Vdub, did you? Then you talk about avi. Are you sure, you know what you are talking about??
    VFAPI a plugin??? Have you ever made a conversion succesfull?? You suck!
