.mkv and VirtualDubMod

Post by TetsuyaDL » Fri Aug 29, 2008 9:34 pm

I'm trying to open an .mkv file in VirtualDubMod. If I try to open the original file, I get the error message:

"Only handle [S_Text/] subs for the moment"

I looked through the archive and found someone suggested using mkvmerge GUI. I tried muxing both with one audio track, and no audio tracks, but VirtualDubMod gives me several errors when I try to open this:

MKV: A frame of stream 1 (at 1402484 ms) had only a foward reference (maybe broken file)

MKV: Video frames seems to be weirdly ordered.

Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'yyyy' (unknown)

Am I not using mkvmerge GUI correctly? Is it an outdated program?

How are you opening it in VirtualDub? Are you using an AviSynth script? That's what you should do, if you aren't. Vdub doesn't like Matroska too much.
... yea ...

Try using FFMPEGSource found <a href="http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=127037">here</a>. I've had no problem importing MKV files into VDub using this. Even h.264 MKVs.

I am the same problem, so instead of creating a new thread I already search about this problem, I've reinstalled all the codecs, right now I have CCCP, Avisynth, and I put the ffmpegsource at the plugin folder of avisynth but VirtualDub Mod still gives me the same error =/

someone can help me ?

you need to make an avisynth script to load your .mkv into vdubmod
(putting ffmpegsource into avisynth's plugins folder is only part of the solution)

Code: Select all

ffmpegsource("[path to your file].mkv")

In VirtualDub MOD employment this option,..opens with DirectShowSource and Avisynth..
