This is frustrating the crap out of me(WMV to MPEG-4 synch)

Post by Mr. Ellipses » Sun Apr 16, 2006 5:33 pm

I've been trying to get This AMV into the appropriate format to put it on a PSP. I've tried PSP Video 9, WMV to AVI and Flash embedding with the sole goal to get it into a synched AVI format. NONE of them has worked. Manually changing the frame rate with Flash has led me to believe that this video uses a variable bit rate. If anyone can, or can tell me how to make this into a synched AVI, that would be greatly appreciated.

maybe just import into Windows movie maker then export it as a DV-avi file then change it to PSP format

Thanks a lot. I didn't even see that feature in the Movie Maker. I put it into that, but it made a huge file size.

I just ran that through Xilisoft, then through PSP video 9. Thank you, Purge. You win an internet.

Just use yasa video converter to convert wmv to psp mp4. it is quite awesome.

Although the problem has been solved, TMPGEnc has a function to decode to AVI (File menu->Output to File->AVI). Doing it this way allows you to use whatever codec you want to - HuffYUV, Lagarith, Uncompressed, whatever other VFW codecs you have installed. Heck, you could even convert to DivX if you wanted to (but I don't know why you would; TMPGEnc is rather cumbersome for that kind of thing).

Gahh...I wish there was an edit button.

TMPGEnc also keeps the sync intact.

For what it's worth, WMV's can be variable frame rate.

Using AVISynth 2.56+

Code: Select all

directshowsource("video.wmv", fps 23.976, convert=true)
Obviously change the fps to what the fps of the video should be, and of course the filename/location :p This ought to work for variable frame rate MKV and MP4 too.

You should use this for a straight through encode (ie load the script and save an avi). Trying to edit with it, or seeking in the video will not work right because it's not frame accurate. This means that if you find a scene change at frame 100, seek forward or back for another frame and go back to frame 100, it may not be the same frame.
