I'm trying to convert a long AVI file to two VCD's. I have in the past done this two ways: with the mencvcd script from mplayer/mencoder, or with avidemux. Both worked.
Now, whichever I use, the VCD's produced (as bin/cue sets) are less than five minutes long, cutting off in mid-video. The actual length varies from about 3:30 to 4:45. Both avidemux and mencvcd split and transcode the video and audio streams to mpa and mpv files, then use mplex to recombine them into compliant MPEG format. I deduce that mplex is what's failing, since that's where they overlap. I've checked the mpa/mpv files from mencoder and they're the correct length and are complete. Anyone have an idea why mplex would suddenly decide to truncate files? Debian Testing system, using avidemux and mencoder from Christian Marillat's archive: avidemux: 1:0.9-sarge0.1 mencoder: 1:0.91-sarge0.1 mjpegtools: 1:1.6.1.90-sarge0.1 Thanks. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
