I've been archiving some video using rm9 (rmfactory tools). I've played around with this and found out that using realmedia splitter I can then later encode to mpeg2 if needed and get video quality I was happy with. I stripped the audio to wave first with streamboxripper. Then split off the video with realmedia splitter and used an avisynth script to pass this to bbmpeg. The script is below;
video=DirectShowSource("E:\files\archive.rmvb",fps=25)
ConvertToYUY2(video)
audio=WavSource("E:\files\archive.wav")
AudioDub(video, audio)
Now the problem. I had to reinstall W2000 which I did from a previous ghost backup. However it didn't have all the video tools installed. So I had to reinstall them and re-register realmedia splitter etc etc.
Now the simple process above doesn't work. But oddly enough, if I render the video with graphedit the video and audio are split perfectly. (Would be nice if I could write the video and audio streams from this tool but I've not been able to figure out how ... that's another question).
Trying to open the avs file with media player classic tells me that a suitable video codec is not installed. But I don't understand why this happens :confused: if graphedit is able to open and split the realmedia source file. An of course RealOne player will play the original rm9 archive.
Anyone got any clues about what I can do to fix this?
