Joining AVI's problem

[Milandir]

Greetings,

When I try to append an avi to another by using VirtualDub, it states that it cannot perform the requested action because of different audio stream sampling rates (20464.00000 vs 19207.00000)...

Any advice? As usual, this would be deeply appreciated

AviSynth.

Re-do one of the audio bitrates to match the other. Neither one is standard, so they must be captures that weren't corrected. VDUB can do it, or any good sound editor and a copy of AVIMux. So can AVISynth.

Ireally hate to disagree with an esteemed colleague, but if you look at this code,you will find easier to join to AVIs with AviSynth than with anything else, regardless if the two video do not not in anything, be it framerate, audio rates, whatever:

AviSource("C:mlandir1.avi")+AviSource("C:mlandir2.avi")

I'm impressed.

So, what audio bitrate will the resulting file actually have? Just curious.

[Tommyknocker]

Basically, whatever you want to save it at. AviSynth only points to the files and tells what program you are running where to get the frames at.

M'kay, that's what I thought. Direct stream copy the video and convert the audio to some standard bitrate. I didn't think it was quite that simple, but I don't use it very much. I think the original poster just wanted to combine to AVI's, which needs more lines in the script.

Throw in my $.02. I think the original poster wanted actually joining two AVIs together, as I have done frequently. The AVISynth way is just to frameserve, which is different from VDub's Direct Stream Copy appending.

If those AVIs were split from one original AVI file, there should be no problem at all. The fact they had different audio sample rates makes me think they were from different original files. there are many ways to work around it, like resample the audio, and some progs using brutal force...

Just run both files thru virtualdub with direct stream for video and full processing for audio and save both file as and then join.
