Avi to mpg error

[bigal0043]

when i try to convert a avi movie to mpg i get an error where it is out of source range or something like that. when i tryed the divx fix program it finds errors where #### is unreadable. is there anyway to fix this. thanks

Vdub
Video > Scan video stream for errors
Video > Direct stream copy
Audio > Direct stream copy
SAVE AVI
Save movie2.avi

If the scan fails use "vdub-mp3-freeze.exe" it makes a log of bad frames at c:\badframes.log that can be used to delete the frames at the highest blocks first

Video > Direct stream copy
Audio > Direct stream copy
SAVE AVI
Save movie2.avi

alright i have ran into a new problem.. i recently got an avi movie and it will not open in tmpgenc... when i go to open it into virtual dub it says "unable to determine file type" i also tryed to open it into divx fix and it said "it is not an avi" i have tryed to rename it to all the possible file extension i could think of. mpg mpeg, mov, vob, divx.. none of them work any ideas what is wrong?? i have loaded all of the divx pathces..too.any ideas would be greatfull...

Since your last post its been 1 hour, you need to know this is not an instant message service, sometimes you get lucky with a reply straight away, other times you may have to wait a few days

If you have all the codec's installed, and Vdub wont load it, then you have downloaded a fake file, The Nimo codec pack provides all the popular ones, and you need DivX 5, any other odd ball codec's would not stop the AVI from being played with most DivX codec's installed.

thanks for responding.. see i can open it in power dvd and watch it i just want to be able to convert it into tmpgenc so i can watch it in a dvd player.. i have tryed the following codecs nimo,divx3,divx4.02,divx5.01,and dvix5.02

Yep, you have a few code's no go install the Nimo codec pack, then you will have a few more, and probably the one you need.
