Hello

I have been trying to convert .mov files to xvid/divx .avi. I tried mediacoder but for some reason the aspect ratio of the created file had changed. Then I tried SUPER with the same result plus the movie was about 30 seconds shorter (7 minutes total running time).
I wasnt able to find out which fps rate the original mov file had but even with differnet fps setting in SUPER, the file was too short. Is there another way of converting mov files or can I create an avs file that will use the original aspect ratio and fps rate although you dont know it?

An avisynth script:
DirectShowSource("file.mov",fps=xx,convertfps=true)

The most common values for fps are 23.976, 29.97, 30, 15, 12, and other fractions of the base numbers. Whichever one skips the least is your man. (SUPER creates the same script, but won't use convertfps.) Make sure you update avisynth, since super installs an old version.

Thanks for the quick replies everybody!

I was able to find out the actual framerate with mp4cam2avi. So I tried SUPER again with the new framerate and now the created .avi is the axact lenght of the original .mov!

Thanks for the help!

Probably it will be need too. I use Vidlogo (http://www.geovid.com/VidLogo/) for it. I can convert my mov to avi, mpeg, wmv files easy and quickly and without quality looses. I like this software and I haven't any problem with it.
