Avi Preview

[Iceflow]

At 200mb, AVI Preview would play 15mins of the movie that Im downloading. I have d/l a further 200mb and it will still only play 15mins of the movie. I am wondering if it is the file that Im downloading or if its a fault with AVI Preview.

I have the latest version of Kazaa lite with the newest codec sofware.

I have run it through VDUB and it has gone from 15mins to about 40mins but it still only plays for 15mins in AVI Preview. Do you think that the file will work Okay once it is fully Downloaded?

How exactly did you do using Virtual Dub??
Anyway,I think it´s gonna be no problem when the movie is downloaded complete.

I am having the same problem, but VDub won't even work for me. In AVI Preview it goes up to only 5 min. In VDub is goes to 5 min then an error pops up. I ran it through GSpot and they say I do not have the ac3 codec installed, but I DO!! I have the newest version!!

All AC3 version I tried included the one in K-Lite Codec Pack doesn´t show up in GSpot EXCEPT one which I got from here.
AC3
and with that one,I can even encode movies with AC3 to vcd/svcds etc which I couldn´t do with the one in the K-Lite Codec Pack.


And about your problem that in stops in after 5 minutes,it´s problably have some bad frames which will make the movie stop but you can fix that later using Virtual Dub

ok, a problem with avipreview pausing at only X minutes could be because of any of the following:

1. the Video stream for only the first X minutes has been obtained, and the remainder of the download consists of only audio stream. in this case, the final download product will be fine. AVi preview doesnt show the rest of the file because, well, theres nothing to "show" only audio. and it doesnt make sense having just the audio play while nothing come on screen

2. there is a minor error on a [articular frame at the Xth minute which has caused AVI Preview to not proceed with the remainder of the film.

a. in most cases, the error is only minor, and the final film will play without any problems
b. in some cases, the error might be drastic causing the Audio to go out of sync with the video or may cause the picture to freeze while the audio track keeps playing. in thesee cases, use the dynamic duo of AvideFreeze and DixFix and VirtualDub to smooth out the error.

3. the source file does not contain any relevant data after X minutes. this is very rare.

4. the file is corrupt, and u probly have to redownload it.

i hope this helps...

later

Crack_man, the one you gave me doesn't help either.
The error I get in VDub is ("No audio decompresser could be found to decompress the source audio format)

whats your problem with the movie?
Are you just want to see the movie in your computer or do you want to encode it to like VCD or something??
