Cannot put Captured AVI in AvsP

Postby Kumatora » Sat Sep 04, 2010 2:44 pm

It's been about three years since the last time I captured footage instead of ripping it (since I'm trying to do an Other M video), and I'm running into one particular problem. I put in this command line:

AviSource("Name of Captured Video.avi") and I get this message when I try to run it: "AVISource: couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc dvsd" What should I do as I didn't have this issue the last time I was doing this?

And for hardware details: I'm using a Pinnacle Studio Capture Device from 2006 and likewise Pinnacle Studio.

The codec in the avi probably isn't properly set for decoding with directshow... setting it in the ffdshow options should work (look for the DV voice in your ffdshow video decoder and set it to libavcodec), but another easy solution could just be loading it through ffvideosource instead.

Another option is that you could get the panasonic DV codec.

Sorry, I meant the Panasonic one.
