lame and virtualdub doesnt work?

[saimike]

i installed the latest lame acm dll (3.96.1 i think) and tried to reduce the size of an avi i have using virtualdub.

lame appears in the audio codec dialog box, and i am able to choose a suitable bitrate.

however, when i tried to "save avi", i get an error msg:

Error initializing audio stream decompression: The requested conversion is not possible.


what gives?

I'm not exactly sure, but the error occurs in the decompression, so maybe you don't have the right codec?

I have troubles getting lame to work with vdub as well, thought it was just me... use fraunhofer.

Primarily 2 sources for it, but I think it'd be prudent to remain silent

actually, i've been thinking ... the error msg did say "decoding" error ...

so perhaps i need to install *another* mp3 decoder? i dont suppose the lame acm decodes and encodes? but that doesnt make sense as windows media player can play the clip i'm trying to edit ...

i downloaded virtualdubmod but how come it doesn't have the audio menu?

just grab the klite codec pack (uninstall your previous mp3/divx codecs) and your virtualdubmod will thank you for it. Has always worked for me. All the codecs are there.

Use G-Spot to determine what codec your current source file is but I'm sure once you get klite you won't have the decompression error.

The audio menu is under Streams.

 

[watdahel]

That's not what I meant. I use the regular virtualdub and it has the audio menu on top.

Same here. Why is that?
