Hi!

I did search around for this for quite some time now, but couldn't find a solution.

For my video archive I recently moved from XVID video and MP3 audio in AVI containers to MP4 video and Vorbis audio in MKV containers.

I still want to be able to open these files in VirtualDubMod. With FFMpegSource2 in AviSynth I managed to open the video, but how on earth do I get the audio as well?

I don't wanna have any extra steps (like remuxing...), and I don't want to use any alternative to VirtualDubMod, if that's possible.

What PlugIn and AVS syntax do I need to make it happen?

Thank you so much!

Matthias

MP4 video and Vorbis audio in MKV containers

mp4 video? do you mean h264?

Well VirtualDubMod is REALLY old and doesn't support mkv input/output.

With FFMpegSource2 in AviSynth I managed to open the video, but how on earth do I get the audio as well?
Try FFAudioSource() link->http://ffmpegsource.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/ffms2-avisynth.html

Generally speaking using VdubMod for AVC/OGG/MKV is a bad idea. If you want to use it anyway, try DirectShowSource as input filter for Avisynth.

Btw. are you sure, that FFmpegSource2 does not deliver audio as well?

Hi!

I know VirtualDubMod is old, but I use it all the time for DV encoding (using the Panasonic codec) of MPEG2 material, and it just does what it's supposed to. I like it.

I am sure FFMpegSource2 does not deliver the Vorbis sound that comes with my MKV containers (and yes, the video is H264; sorry I've been not too specific about that).

I've tried
FFIndex(X)
AudioDub(FFVideoSource(X), FFAudioSource(X))
and it seems to work!

On my own search I haven't heard of FFAudioSource, so a big Thank You is due! :)

I'll have to see if video and audio stay in sync this way...

Cheers
