Hi,

I am looking for help with how to produce MP4 files with DiVX 5.0. If I used the "create a file.divx" on the first screen it procude a file with no sound that I can only play with the divx player.

Also, converting an AVI file to MP4 (third page of the codec) also produce a movie with no sound.

So, how can I add sound?
Can I Demux the sound and remux it after? if so, how?

About DivX 5.0:

I must say I am pretty amaze with the codec. I manage to fit a very good quality TV capture movie (125 mins) 480x360 resolution (4:3) at 600 kbps (filesize was 650 meg). I used pre-processing (ligth), B-frames and GMC options. I am sure I could fit a (16:9) DvD rip at 640x360 with same bitrate and still retain good quality. There was no block patterns, not even any visible pixelisation around text.

I need to know more about MP4 cause I heard there is a chance DvD players will support ISO MP4 in the future. That would be great!!

You gotta adhere to pretty strict rules when using the MP4 converter, ACC or CBR-MP3 audio only, and not muxed in by nandub either

I have taken AVI with standard MP3 tracks and used avi2mp4 and got the whole thing converted with sound just fine. -> Sample with Xvid encoded video http://interface.darktech.org/files/clip.mp4

Take a look at http://mpeg4ip.sourceforge.net

The only problem that I haven't solved yet is how to add subtitle stream...
