Hi, I am trying to open a .VOB file with VirtualdubMod (1.4.13.2v2) using an avisynth script. the script is like this one:

LoadPlugin("MPEGDecoder.dll")
MPEGSource("VTS_01_1.vob")
Virtualdubmod creates the .d2v file and after that I recive an error saying that there is no codec to decompress YV12 format, so I have to convert video with "YV12toYUY2" to open it.

Is there anyway to open video file directly in YV12? I thought that virtualdubmod supported that format. Does anybody know if any codec or DLL is needed?

Install DivX 5.0x or XviD codec: it will provide you the ability to preview YV12 streams in VirtualDubMod.

I already have divx and xvid installed, but it doesn't work anyway.

Something that may be important. I have both Virtualdub 1.5.1 and latest VirtualdubMod installed (and also nandub). May this influence in that Virtualdubmod does not recognize YV12 video?

Shouldn't matter.

Try this: add the following to your registry file:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32]
"VIDC.YV12"="divx.dll"

assuming you have DivX5 installed.

Thanks Wilbert, that was the problem.

I also tried xvid.dll and ffvfw.dll, and it works with the three.
