You are welcome about the quote.

Anyway, once you have the video loaded in VDub, you can delete them out one by one, or VDub's answer is the following:

Deleting JUNK chunks from a file

VirtualDub never puts JUNK chunks in any AVI file it creates, so the solution is to turn off all processing:


· Set the video processing mode to Direct Stream Copy.
· Set the audio processing mode to Direct Stream Copy.
· Open the source file, and save to the output file.



Audio interleaving options work in this mode, and video range selection works to the nearest key frame, so you can re-interleave or trim off ends at the same time.

Take your pick

Still not having a
any luck removing my bad frame from a file,
tried the direct processing using virtual dub,
but still copies exact - not sure how to delete them.

Does any one know about AVIDeFreezer, ive tried this but cant get it to re-create a repaired file.

you can try a tool called DivFix. http://divfix.maxeline.com i haven't tried it yet,but until virtual dub fixes its "scan bug" i'm afraid we have few choices.

Load the AVI file to VDub. Select Video-->Scan video stream for errors. Print out the error log. Go to first bad frame select Mark In. Move one frame down (">>"), select Mark Out. Press the delete key. Continue until all your bad frames are deleted. Save the file.
