Codecs

[SilverTorch]

hey guys,

Anyone know what audio codecs the vhs and dvd rip groups use?
The movies that can be downloaded from irc and such, I know alot of them use DivX for video, what about audio?

Mods, post is about codecs and not where to find and download the ripped movies, please don't lock

Xvid is a common video codec and a lot of anime groups use the Ogg-Vorbis filter to keep multiple language tracks.

for audio, expecialy the realy old rips then you might need divx3.11

and for the realy new ones you might need AC3

so THAT explains why my CB movie rip plays video only in WMP. why it does audio only in quicktime is another question.

Maybe I will actually be able to watch it using only one player now!
