How do i fix a broken frame in Xvid encoded video?

[awdark]

I have a video that is pissing me off right now...
It would freeze at a frame about 7 minutes in and when I was reencoding it, the new video only had that stupid broken frame with the sound continuing. HOW do I fix that?

Thank you.

Scan the video for bad frames in vdub. When it is done it will report if there are bad frames, then save using direct stream copy with a new filename. The video will be saved minus the bad frames.

THank YOU! that was helpful. I didnt realize vdub makes such a good editor which is able to scan the frames. did take about an hour tho..

Is that file The Two Towers by any chance? I had the same problem with it. I cut out the corrupted section using Tmpgenc (I made two files). This did work, but took ages. The other method wouldn't work for me because of the non-standard sound encoding.

If it is TTT scanning for bad frames with VBR then saving it using streaming will cause a bad lip sync, you need Vdub MP3 for that, but if it is TTT you need to do other things..

...okay...so I ran into the same problem...I cut and re-joined with out the bad part (used easy avi splitter/easy avi joiner)..but now the audio is all out of whack....

Can above method of using virtual dub be used to split file and delete bad frames even though there is some correction going on with the audio?
