Mpeg patching , and Creative CMVs

[iffybob]

Hi all I need help with 2 things.

1. I need an mpeg patcher like "DVDpatcher", but I only want to patch the AR and leave the rest untouched, mostly I dont want to patch/alter the bitrate of the video, and that patches the whole file, not just the header.

2. I have a "Creative Zen Mozaic" (Mp3 player) that will play only "cmv" video, the software that comes with it will not convert my avi's to cmv, "File type not supported", I was wondering if anyone knew of other software that can do it, I found a link on SourceForge but its dead. I could convert them to mpegs, then convert them to cmv, but I dont like the shiped software to start with, and was looking for better.

Any help will be appreciated.... Cheers. boB:cool:

1. What's wrong with DVD patcher? Just select 3.5 or 5 Mbps and you're ok. That value is not used at all, is just for indication (it may yield a warning, not an error, but don't worry).

Cheers, it just annoyed me but if it is not taken any notice of then fine, I will continue to use DVDpatcher.

( sorry for long wait, bin ill just got home yesterday )

Still no help on point 2, oh well, does anyone know what res I should convert to, as none of the media identifyers will analyse the "*.cmv"'s the just say it has audio, have tried GSpot and MediaInfo.

Thanks all.
