At a lost in converting a mkv video to avi

Post by liveordie56 » Sun Jul 06, 2008 10:09 pm

I am trying to convert a h264 encoding of code geass. The video is GG Fansub's encoding of it. if you're familiar w/ it. I have tried multiple variations trying to get it into virtualdub to convert but none has worked. I've tried the following:

- just moving it in
- avs DirectshowSource command
- extracting the h264 file and moving it into virtual dub
- avs directshowsource command w/ the h264 file

I get a large error when i just move it in
with the directshowsource command i get an error saying no video path found
With the last 2 it just says invalid file. Does anybody know a way i can go about doing this? Thank you.

ffmpegsource() perhaps?

Also, your sig is too big. Image height of 40 pixels max.

Buying DVDs is within the site ethical guidelines - as long as they're on DVD in Japan, it's a legit statement to make.
