Can I ask why you want to convert from .avi to .mpeg?

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

to put it in to 'dvd' format.


i get error, 'cannot open' or unsupported format.

thats the long way of doing it, i want the shorter way hence why i used programs such as nero vision........

try running the attacment to this message on the file.

It should tell you exactly witch codecs are being used in the file, the have a look in google for the type of file it says it is :)

Up to you I s'pose. It is funny that tmpgenc wouldn't load the .avi...maybe it's corrupted somehow? Maybe you could use GSpot to have a look at it.

i have installed the codec needed, but the program does not detect it, will try to convert file and post back results.

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

i installed the codec, converted, and still no audio.........

the codec used by the file is 'iviaudio.ax'

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

something to do with windvd :)

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

i know, i installed the trial version, but no diffarence, even used a codec pack manager to install it.........

plays fine in windows media player :erm:

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

The first link when googling that file brings up this page with this quote: "It's apparent that you've obtained the audio filter for/from the demo version of WinDVD. The filter that's included with the fullblown version of WinDVD v.3.xxx works just fine - and for the entire length of the video."

Looks like you need the filter that comes with the full version to re-encode the file.

*just remembers windvd packages came with his motherboard when he bought it :D

thanks will try this :D

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

I've got Windvd, if you need any files posting up just ask.

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

ok well after the conversion completed the picture is dark and blue, will fiddle with the codec packages on the system :shrug:

thanks for the offer Indians :)

i seem to have lost mp3 playback in windows xp i downloaded the codec pack for media player and i still cant play them, any ideas on what to do ?

edit: nevermind got it working :)

Re: file conversion avi to mpeg 2, no audio ?
 

Gold Wave is very good for extracting the sound from AVI files. Save as a WAV and encode your dvd with separeate audio and video sources.

i would like to thank 'the real dj' and 'semi on' for there help in solving my codec issues, they have now been resolved. :)

reps on the way to both :)
