.mov to .avi problem - no audio

[nagel]

hi all,

i want to convert a .mov file (h264) to .avi (divx ffmpeg encoder) using ffmpegX. However, there is no audio for the output file. The input .mov file has two streams: stream#0.0 = audio, stream#0.1 = video. I tried another .mov file where the streams are swapped, i.e., stream#0.0 = video, stream#0.1 = audio. For the latter input file everything works perfectly.

I also tried the ffmpegX audio option "invert map" - without any effect. this is my output log:

Codec type mismatch for mapping #0.1 -> #0.0

So here is my questions:
* Obviously, ffmpegX wants the video stream to be at #0.0 and audio at #0.1?! I also tried with divx mencoder - the same problem: no audio. My .mov file is written using final cut express. I cannot find an option to tell fce to swap the streams. can ffmpegX swap the streams (again, "invert map" is not working)? Is there a tool available to do so?

kind regards,
claus

If you have QuickTime Pro, then you can reverse the stream ordering in the source file by extracting the audio (from the 'first' position) and inserting it back again (at the 'last' position). I have detailed the procedure in a previous post.

thanx for the hint, qt pro did the job
