MKV converter

Post by Vax » Mon Nov 17, 2008 4:17 pm

I have a .MKV file but VDubMod would not take it as an .MKV nor would it take it as an Avs file. There is some type of error message coming up. My question is any good converters you reccomend?

Well, I almost always use Vdub and Avisynth to do conversions.

My personal suggestion is to download the ffmpegsource plugin from this doom9 thread (I personally recommend the 1.21 version, not the beta), put the dll in your avisynth plugins folder (usually c:\program files\avisynth 2.5\plugins), and create a script with

Code: Select all

ffmpegsource("path to video file", vtrack=-1, atrack=-1)
That should open it in Vdub or VdubMod without problems. And if you can be more specific with what error message you're getting, that would really help us figure out what's going wrong.

I dont quite remember being as that I deleted the .Avs file. But i'll try your way and see if there's some new type of error. The problem with the regular .MKV is that VDubMod closes after I import the footage in.
