Each time I try to open it up in Virtual Dub Mod, I get popups saying someting about WMV9 yadda yadda crap, and it refuses to load correctly.
0.o Meep?
It would help if you specified exactly what the error was, and what you're trying to load into it.
"Yadda yadda crap" is not useful information. "Couldn't locate decompressor", or whatever, is.
i dont recall if vdub opens wmv files or not... but its prolly a case of you trying to convert a wmv file... which is pretty much a waste...
No, sorry, my brain was at an even lower functioning rate than usual when I made this -___- It's been a long day.
I'm not trying to open a WMV file, I know that V dub + WMV = Sorry, it won't work.
Okay here is what happens exactly, I go to open a file and this pops up:
VirtualDub has detected an improper VBR audio encoding in the source AVI file (audio stream 1). The current preference is to rewrite the audio header in standard CBR values during processing for better compatibility. This may introduce up to 14321 ms of skew from the video stream. If this is unexceptable, decompress the *entire* audio stream to an uncompressed WAV file and recompress with a constant bitrate encoder. (bitrate: 165.3 = 21.8kbps)
Do you still want to rewrite the header?
Yes or No?
-------------------------------------------
Then whether I click yes or no, this pops up:
VirtualDub Warning-
Couldn't locate the decompressor format for 'WMV3' (unknown).
VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows [VFW] compatible codec to decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable. Only 'Direct stream copy' is available for this video.

What in the world does all this mean? 0.o I'm sorry, I'm a complete moron, and welcome the much needed bashing. I've taken the easy road of just rendering in WMV format and using crappy footage for so long, that this is all overloading my small insuficient brain...
Sorry for the trouble, but could you please explain, or send me to a guide that I missed (since I'm a blind loser)???
Thanks ^_^;;;
