I have about 22 MPG files that i want to convert to divx, and i would like to do it over night.

How would i do this with VirtualDub?

Under "Save as" check the "Don't run this job now..." checkbox.

Also, please, post in the appropriate forum in the future. There is a VirtualDub forum... Thanks.

Also II, please, read the rules, you can make our work much easier by abiding them. Thanks II :) .

Cheers,

Mijo.

I'm curious if you managed your batch convert and if so what methodology / settings did you use. I am facing this issue

I just might die with a smile on my face after all - sorry couldn't resist :)

Batch converts... Just like I wrote above.

Open your first MPG, do all you want in VirtualDub then like always press F7, here be sure to check the "Don't run this job now; add it to job control so I can run it in batch mode." checkbox.

The same procedure with all the other MPEGs (or whatever VD can open, even AVS ;-) ).

After you've done it with all the files, press F4 for the job control windows. Here you can press START, after that VD is going to do one job at time...

Really easy to do.

Bye,

Mijo.

umm I think I posted a question like this before.
set your settings
then open Job Control
then load your dir
set your 2nd pass settings
then open Job Control
then load your dir
then set them in this order
movie1(1stpass)
movie1(2ndpass)
movie2(1stpass)
movie2(2ndpass)
movie3(1stpass)
movie3(2ndpass)
