Does the color depth change depending on the colorspace input?
I compressed half a clip in VirtualDub to an YUV Huffyuv AVI, I then compressed the Huffyuv AVI in Fast Recompress to XviD.
The second half or the clip I compressed directly to XviD in VirtualDub.
Now I tried to Append the clips and VirtualDub said 'Image Formats Don't Match' :eek: The same settings for XviD was used on both.

I used abcAVI Tag Editor and the first clip said
video stream: XviD MPEG-4 codec, 320x240, 16 bit, 12671 frm, 23.9756 frm/s, 745.191 kbit/s

The second clip was
video stream: XviD MPEG-4 codec, 320x240, 24 bit, 4054 frm, 23.9756 frm/s, 434.330 kbit/s

Ok so I used VirtualDub's Hex Editor to change the first clip's color depth to 24bit and it appended fine.
