virtualdub frameserving subtitles to TMPGenc problem

[King-Of-DK]

Does anybody know why TMPGenc doesn´t seem to recognize the *vdr file type? It used to work,but all of a sudden,i can´t seem to get TMPGenc to load a *vdr file.I use *.ssa subtitle files and frameserve from Virtualdub with the original AVI.

[Tommyknocker]

Is your handler activated?

[King-Of-DK]

Yes the handler is installed,and VFAPI is installed for TMPGenc,but it continues to say Can´t open file or unsupported format,when i try to load the *.vdr file in TMPGenc

[Tommyknocker]

The file from VDub, what kind of codec is it?

[King-Of-DK]

The original AVI is Xvid mpeg4.

[Tommyknocker]

Is the Xvid codec installed?

[King-Of-DK]

Yep,i can watch the movie in WMP

[Tommyknocker]

In your envronmental settings, which is the higher priority?

[King-Of-DK]

Direct Show Multimedia filereader 1
AVI VFW compatability reader 0
Wave file reader 0
DVD2AVI project file reader 0
TMPGenc project file reader 0
AVI2 (OpenDML) file reader -1
BMP/PPM/TGA/JPG -1

[Tommyknocker]

See if your AVI readers can open your video. Raise each one to the highest priority, then try to frameserve.

[King-Of-DK]

I am not sure i follow you.TMPGenc comes out every time with the error message "cannot open or unsupported" when i load the *.vdr file from virtualdub.How high should i raise the priority? And what should i raise priority for?

[Tommyknocker]

You are raising the priority of the AVI file reader, giving them the chance to open your video rather than Direct Show. Raise each to four.

You also need a .dll called msvcr70.dll in C:\Windows\system32. 8)

[King-Of-DK]

I have it already..

[King-Of-DK]

Also,in TMPGenc under options,there is a "Flyleg" or spidery in the Register TMPGenc.vfp to VFAPI,should that be as it is?? Please help me,as i have had no problems before,it puzzles me.I have all codecs installed,and i have Windows XP Professional,but as i said i have had no trouble before..
