How to construct an index permanently

[manoflogan]

I have an avi file without an index. How do I construct an index permanently?

This should do the job:
MEncoder.exe -oac copy -ovc copy -idx -o "C:\Output.avi" "C:\Input.avi"

Hi!

I believe you can accomplish this by simply loading the file into VirtualDub, which should automatically ask you if you want to re-index the file.

If not, you should be able to use VirtualDub as follows as follows:

1) From the "File" dropdown menu, select "Open Video file" and put a checkmark next to "Popup extended open options"

2) Select the problematic .AVI and click on "Open"

3) Put a checkmark next to "Re-derive keyframe flags"

4) Click on "OK"

To make it permanent, you actually have to save a new copy somewhere.
