exporting DV in Vdub

Post by SJCorrectet » Thu May 28, 2009 8:26 pm

Howdy,

I'm looking for a way to get my source ready for editing by making clips in virtualdub and exporting them using DV compression. Using ffdshow and selecting DV leads to a crash upon an export attempt, and I've had trouble exporting with another DV option. The source is 16:9 and at 29.xx fps. Does anyone have a handy way of successfully creating DV clips from source of this aspect ratio and framerate?

thanks

why do you need clips to be DV? (only reason I can think of is that you're sending the clips over to a mac for editing)

if you're editing on windows it would be easier to save your clips using huffyuv or lagarith

Yes, but is it 720x480? I'm fairly sure that the DV standard will only accept 720x480, 29.97fps (NTSC) or 720x576, 25fps (PAL).

I've got a couple programs on hand that work better with DV than huffyuv. This may just mean I need to do some troubleshooting in those programs.

as for resolution, its 720 x 400, and therefore a problem. I thought this made DV out of the question. However, i recently found a couple of videos on my drive that were encoded in DV and were 720 x 400, so I thought that maybe it was possible.

just curious
