Tenders V-Dub MP3 Freeze VBR Audio and Bad Frames Guide

[AD421]

ok first of all for all of u who can't find the log go to http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/virtualdub.html and scroll down till u see vdub mp3 freeze and download that not the regular vdub.

I think it might be a good idea to include at the start of the guide a small paragraph on deleting bad frames using regular Vdub. You mention regular Vdub but don't give the basic steps how it works. Beginners need things spelled out for them and it might cut down on some repetitive posts. 8)

my guide is not about the regular vdub.if people want that then they can check the other guides or do a search.

intrerestingly enough,i find myself useing "vdub mp3 freeze",more and more lately. i find it actually works better. :jester:

Hi guys,

I beleive I have bad frames too. I'm following the guide but I It only loads about 43,000KB instead of loading the whole 700,000KB.

I used normal Vdub and it didn't have a problem loading the whole file, but it crashed half way through the 'check for bad frames' process.

My file is 'The Lord of the Rings CD 1 Xvid.avi' and I really want to load it into Vdub MP3 freeze. Could it be that the actual program is corrupt?

I even downloaded Gspot as it was suggested in a previous post and I have all the necessary codecs.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Kinds Regards,

Elle

Don't worry everyone, I finally encoded the file.

It took 2 weeks to fix but gosh I've learnt so much especially from this forum. You guys all rock.

Just incase anyone else has a similar problem, I downloaded ffdshow and a program called AVIC.exe and changed the AVI file from Xvid to DIVX. Then I saved the audio to WAV using Vdub (normal version), loaded both AVI & WAV files into TMPGEnc and encoded as usual. Oh my gosh, no problems at all. I didn't even have to scan for bad frames. TMPGEnc automically fixed them all.

Happy encoding everyone

[zero_net]

It doesn't work for me !!!!!!!
I deleted all bad frames, saved as AVI

and through the video off 20 minutes ahead and still played the bad frames

In Version VDub 1.5.3 is " Video > Scan Video stream for errors" the same has "Video > Check video for freezes" ? or i'am using the wrong VDub?

its best to use the mp3 freeze one. you can sometimes run into problems if you use the regular vdub,when your file has mp3 audio.

Sorry wrong post.

Cool little guide. I tried it and it was straight forward. I've been reading about vdubmp3 and it's nice to see the instructions spelled out. Does this method of deleting frames also manage to delete the corresponding audio portion? The last Xvid that I worked on had a few bad frames and I followed the old method of scanning for errors in virtual dub, resaving the new avi and then saving out the wav with nandub and then using cce and tmpge to encode to mpeg2 and no matter what I did, I experienced gradual sync. problems. I'm hpoing that making the deleteted portion from key frame to key frame rather than simply deleting the bad frames will eliminate the sync. problem.

Thanks in advance,

VC

thanks!,but if you already tried my guide,why do you ask if it deletes the audio portion too

you should already know this by now

[videocheez]

I have only tried to delete the frames. I haven't yet encoded the fixed avi to mpeg2 yet. I just wanted to compliment your guide and see if you had an additional words of wisdom based on my comments. But I can tell that your getting tired of answering questions since you answered my question with a question.

Thanks anyways.

tenders, for someone who has the cheek to call this "his guide" when it was I who posted it here a long time ago, and since removed it to my own site. I don't make it a habit of coming back to complain when someone steals my work, but am getting quite fed of with the large number of emails from this forum telling me about this rip off.

If your going to copy peoples guides, at leased make some changes so they don't stand out as a copy, just look at those frame numbers, which was posted by me here in this forum and now updated at my own site.

Sorry people, had to be said

[vitualis]

KingJohn, for someone who has left (twice), you sure like to come back...

The information in "your" guide is a general method and common knowledge. Since you requested that the exact guide written by you to be removed, there is no reason why someone else can't write another similar one.

Please just leave once and for all.

Regards.

I have a corrupted file, but no VBR audio. I scanned using VDub for errors and it said it has 128 bad frames. How do I get rid of it since I don't have VBR audio? After I delete the bad frames, would the movie will chopped off in the part with the bad frames?

[videocheez]

128 bad frames isn't bad. It sounds like alot but it will only end up being about 3-4 seconds of the movie and thats not very much.

I tried your guide Tenders and had a question but after reading this post found out it looks like you do not like answering questions. I found a better guide that explains it in great detail. If you are going to take credit for making a guide then at least offer some support for it.

Thanks to kingjohn my movie is now working correctly.

i will answer a question unless its obvious that the person:

1-did not follow my guide,or
2-the question was already answered by another poster.
3-thier was not enough details to answer.

I checked for bad frames but it didn't find any. It has no bad frames, but does have VBR audio. Your guide is for when bad frames have been found. Do you have any suggestions for when no bad frames are found, but still with VBR audio so I can encode it to SVCD in TMPGEnc without the audio going out of sync? Thanks.

[Gandalf the Great]

After following your superb guide I removed all of the bad frames from my file, (LOTR Two Towers CD1). But for some really, really annoying reason it is out of sync ( Video about a second before audio). Any idea's how I could either avoid this problem or solve it.
Thanks alot, any help would be great!!!

[videocheez]

After deleting bad frames, try saving out the avi with no audio. Select direct stream copy for video and audio and save new avi with no audio. Then use that avi with no audio to mux with the wav that you would have already extracted using vdub. I used to always mux using an avi that contained audio with a wav and i would get sync problems 25% of the time. I dont know why, but ever since i sarted muxing an avi( video only) with my wav I havent had any more sync problems.

Goodluck,

VC

you can use the guide either way

i have not had any sync problems when i use this method so i can't really speak to that.

i suggest you try what videocheez said,might just do the trick

[lordkinbote]

But, if I don't do anything with bad frames, all that's left is to save the avi out with direct stream copy and doesn't the file end up the same afterwards? I mean, it's not changed at all.
