View Full Version : Dual Audio - Graphedit files do not open in WMP

I need help with dual audio avi. I followed the guide at doom9.net using graphedit to generate the "fake" avi file. I tried opening it in Windows Media Player 6.4 and 7.1, and it does not recognize it. I can play the graphs in Graphedit, so it has something to do with WMP not recognizing its own sibling (DSHOW filters). Does anybody has a solution for this?
:confused:

<sigh> Have you tried another player? I know I've ask at least 5 people this same question in the past week or so :-)

Please try another player like BSplayer, ZoomPlayer or PowerDivx 3.1.2 and then report back.

Yes I have, and BSplayer is working. What I'm trying to achieve is to get it working in Micro-DVD using Graphedit dshow filters as described in Doom9's guide (see link below). The alternative technique for Micro-DVD (2nd WAV file) produces lag when jumping to other chapters, hence the decision to test / utilize the graphedit approach.

The approach was to create a graphedit filter graphs to play each audio stream individually from a dual-avi file. The graphedit file was then supposed to be saved as a "fake" avi file. Although the guide claims that it should work, WMP (Micro-DVD) cannot open it (ERROR: Cannot play back the file. The format is not supported.). I did found a similar question in the forum, but there were no solution aside from using BSPlayer and losing my MDVD.ini settings. Has anybody encountered this problem or had actually got it working? thank you in advance for any help / response.

This is again regarding the dual audio (with graphedit) based on Doom9's guide. I cannot get it to work even after following the guide to the letter. Has anybody got it working? I would like to compare configuration to figure out what's going on... any response would be deeply appreciated...

chris25fr,

I also have the same problem now. I installed DirectX 8.1 last week and yesterday I wanted to watch a movie that worked before. But now it doesn't!
And after deinstalling DirectX 8.1 using DirectX-Buster (www.directxbuster.de I think), an installing DirectX 8.0a again, it still doesn't work!

Can anyone give us a solution to this problem?!? I also want to watch my movies using MicroDVD-Player, and this player uses WMP to work...

CU, KingMichi

Wow,

Finally, I got responses. You mean you guys got it to work? DirectX8.0 only? I had and still have DirectX8.1a installed when I was playing around with the Dshow filters for dual audio. I finally gave up. The alternative method for MicroDVD is prone to synch problems.

I finnaly settled on BSPlayer. No point getting stressed out getting it to work with DirectX8.1a. Thanks for the input...

Hi again!
:) :) :)
Finally I solved the problem for my computer! I installed a few different versions of quartz.dll (you can find many versions on different sites in the net) and with one of these files it finally works!!!

I cannot tell you which one it was, you have to search yourself!

CU, KingMichi :)

I only know that the quartz.dll that works with Win2000 on the friend's computer doesn't work with my Win98 SE and the other way round...

But I don't know if this is a problem with the computers or with the OS's...

Ciao, KingMichi

same Problem here for weeks ...
Thanx to KingMichi , this Quartz.dll-hint solved the Problem.
I just copied the old version from a backup-CD and it works fine.
