Virtual dub problem

Post by Sun_Wukong » Sun Oct 07, 2007 10:41 pm

I cant seem to load certain AVI files, I get a message saying the data is corrupt, yet they play fine. Is this a codec problem?

Could be codec problem. What codec does your AVI file use?

Try Open video file via AviSynth... It's happened to me before and it didn't give me any details. Just the same message you got. After using Open video file via AviSynth... it played just fine.
I use plain old uncompressed files by the way.

How exactly? Isnt Avisynth a script based program?

Nah, you can frame-serve any ol' video file via AVIsynth.

AVISource("C:\location.avi")

If that doesn't work, you might have to go the DirectShow route:

DirectShowSource("C:\location.avi")

EDIT: never mind, I re-installed AMVapp and the video loads fine.
