avi2wav tell me "File is not indexed type of AVI"

[steph280]

I am trying to convert an Xvid avi file to DVD format using DIKO. Have done two other conversions without any problems. But this one particular avi file kept on erroring out. So I went through the logs and ran each command line separately, and discovered the error as follow:

c:\program files\diko> avi2wav\avi2wavcmd.exe "c:\avi\original_xvid.avi" "c:\dvd\extract0a.wav"

ERROR: File is not indexed type of AVI !

Anybody have any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks!

VirtualDubMod would probably be a good choice, but it really is upto you.
