Audio streams have different sampling rate ???

[Gryphon]

I am trying to append 2 avi's and I get the error message " Virtual Dub Error" " The audio streams have different sampling rates ( 19718.00000 vs. 19818.00000 ) any help would be great. Thank you !

Do you try to append files with MP3-VBR? If this is the case, try AVI-Mux GUI.

I have the Spiderman DVDRip from RFtA ... it is in the form of 2 avi files, I want to merge them to create one avi file and then strip the audio to .wav to convert it to SVCD. I have done this many times and have not yet run into this problem with the different sampling rates. I am not sure how to use the program that you said to use, or how it will help with this, if you could explain in a little more detail I would be very grateful, and Thank You for the reply.

Let's assume for some strange reason that you legally own that rip you downloaded. I'm really interested in how this could be.

The numbers you gave can't be sampling rates (whatever VDub tells, it simply aren't). They are more likely to be average data rates (and if these values are stored in the headers to be indeed sampling rates, then your files are corrupt and you'll need a hexeditor to fix it).

If VDub rejects them for different avg data rate in audio, then AVI-Mux GUI is able to append these files: It won't reject AVIs with MP3-VBR for different average data rates.

Just load both files, select both of them an add video source.
You can then save the whole video to one file, or you can also extract the audio stream. The link to the homepage of AVI-Mux GUI is on the doom9 links page.
