hello, haveing problems trying to covert the audio files from lord of the rings two towers avi movie when i try to save it as a wav it gives me this error message "the requested audio compression is not compatible with the input format" can anyone please tell me how to get around this problem as i wont to then covert it to svcd with TMPGEnc
Saving out the audio
Audio > Full processing mode
SAVE WAV
The above error is shown usually when you try to save the sound track, but the source is usually AC3 so you are attempting to convert the AC3 sound track and save it uncompressed, or to another format.
Vdub does not have the ability to convert AC3, so you will get that error. It is also possible to get that error when you try to convert a MP3 to a bitrate higher than you have support for. But this is mostly shown with AC3
In the case of AC3, you need to save the audio out using direct stream copy, then later convert it to a uncompressed wav. So instead of full processing mode, you need to use direct stream copy.
Audio > Direct stream copy
SAVE WAV
Here is the guide for it:
Convert a movie with AC3
Note that the topic says "Convert a Divx with ......" but it can be used for Xvid movies too.
