Converting to Divx5 with Virtudub on a AVI file
 

Hi, I have a huffy compressed avi file from a capture and would like to convert it to divx5. However virtualdub only lets me use one pass conversion and I would like to use multipass conversion.

Is it possible to use multipass conversion to divx5 on a avi file? Or another way to do it? Thanks

Hi tal65,

Try MPEG-Mediator :)

Thanks for the reply kwag, but I don't want a mpeg.

I have a huffy avi and want to make a divx5 avi with multi pass. Unfortunately I can only use single pass with virtualdub, there must be a reason you can't use multipass with avi files i think

:oops: You're right :!:
Somehow, I thought you could open your Huffy with Mediator. It only allows MPEG files as input.
Well, how about using XviD CODEC with Vdub, instead of DivX CODEC :idea:

That's a good point, I'll give that a try and see how it goes :)

By the way, I've never used xvid before, are the default settings pretty good, or are there any changes I should make to get the best quality? I've seen some pretty good xvids out there, but the ones I seem to make with the default settings before just as a test seemed a little blurred.

Thanks again kwag

I really can't say which settings are better because I don't do MPEG-4s, but most comments I hear, are that XviD is a better CODEC that DivX :!:

Do you know you can do AVI with TMPGENC :?:

It can handle all avi codecs currently on your PC. Just as Virtualdub.

Go into file menu, "Output to file", and choose AVI :idea:

I didn't 8O
That's what I get for not doing AVIs :lol:
Now I know, if I ever need to do one ;)

Thanks Phil,
