Not a bug -

1) Load the .AVI file into VirtualDub (or any of its variants) or NanDub

2) From the "File" dropdown menu, select "File Information"

3) Post (here) EVERYTHING you see (both video and audio information), or post a screen capture .jpg of the information box


The audiostream is probably in either .AC3 format or Variable Bitrate MPEG Layer 3 (VBR .MP3).

If it proves to be .AC3:

In TMPGEnc, under the "Environmental Settings" "VFAPI plugin" tab rightclick on the "Direct Show Multimedia Reader" and increase to one greater than the highest priority of listed items.. This will enable TMPGEnc to accept a properly encoded .AVI with .AC3 audio for input...


If it proves to be VBR:

Simply use VirtualDubMOD (Different than standard VirtualDub), to save the audio stream as an Uncompressed PCM (WAV) file as follows:
Using VirtualDubMOD to Convert "VBR" .MP3 to Uncompressed .WAV

1) Load the .AVI file into VirtualDubMOD (a different program than the standard VirtualDub)

2) From the "Video" dropdown menu, select "Direct Stream Copy"

3) From the "Streams" dropdown menu, select "Stream List" - and rightclick on the audio stream, then select "Full Processing Mode" - then click on "OK". Rightclick on the audiostream again, then select "Compression" and make certain it is set to "No compression (PCM)"

4) From the "File" dropdown menu, save the .AVI with a new filename

Geez buddy, do they let you get away with that behavior in other forums? Wrong forum (what does your problem have to do with DivX?), blatant Rule 9 Violation (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm), unattractive use of too many capital letters. The only bug I see is with the user. Thanks for being patient with him, setarip_old. Moving this thread to the Other MPEG1/2 Encoder Forum.

Try to demux the audio from avi use virtualdub mod,
(if there still same problem,you can convert it to wav and retry)
Add it separatly in tmpgenc "audio source" filed.

[setarip_old]

is completely uneccessary if directshow is raised in the environmental settings of tmpgenc

It's been my experience that increasing the value of DirectShow (under "Environmental Settings") only affects the recognition of .AC3 audio, not VBR...
