Hi everyone,
I'm truly sorry if this question was asked. I tried to search and found notheing.Tried also to ask it in capture forum - no answer.
Maybe anyone could help me with my problem
I'm capturing video using video bt848 chip. As compression codec i use PicVideo Mjpeg (19/20 q-ty) or huffyuv loseless codec. As a result, every hour takes about 8-15gb of space.(res=768X576). I have 2 saparate harddisks, so if i want to capture whole movie (1h40+) i have to capture it in 2 parts. As a result fps of parts always differ and it is alwas "about" 25 like 25.089,24.976 and so on,no matter what program i use. The captures got fully cynchronized. Now the problem rises: I cannot merge the parts in Virtual Dub(mod) cos they have different fps.And if i try to change fps for both parts, to , say, 25.000 audio/video is lost in sync(of course) So i don't know what to do here. The only solution i found -(i know it is stupid) is to process each part in Tmpegenc using very huge bitrate(for not to lower q-ty) like 5000kbps. REsulting files(mpeg-1) are always exatctly 25.000 fps, and then i can merge them in Dub and compress to Xvid 2passes (or other mpeg-4).
But this solution is no good, cos it takes much space,time and cpu wastle. So does anyone know better solution for my problem?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
