Hi, i've encoded one VOB in x264 with virtualdubmod, so now i've a stream at 5000 kbps (i must make some manipulations to this video and join it with another stream).

The case is that i've the x264 codec and ffdshow in my system but when i try to open it with virtualdubmod it says that is not a valid stream.

I don't know if i'm doing something wrong or simply virtualdubmod can't work with x264 like with xvid.

Thanks.

I can't remember the fix, but I've read it before. Try this:

Under "video decoder configuration" - codecs - in FFdshow, make sure you have H264 set to libavcodec.

It's something like that... Good luck.

1. enable decoding for h264 in ffdshow's VFW decoder

2. if it still won't work, edit the registry (off the top of my head, the registry key is):
localMachine,software,microsoft,windowsnt,currentVersion,drivers32
create a new string: vidc.h264
value: ff_vfw.dll

step 2 is what worked for me ;) it should work for you too
