Small problem with Editstudio

Cagari · Post by **Cagari** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 9:04 am

Does anybody know where I can download codecs for Editstudio 5?

Well, I downloaded the G Spot program Kariudo has, and it says something like this:

Video Codec:
DX50
XviD 1.0 RC3 (Ni hao)

But I used this file before and there was no problem!!! TT_TT

If that has something to do with Divx, I'm downloading the codec now.

divx encoded files are buggy in just about any editing program, your best bet is to use something like virtualdub to convert the files into something editable.

click the pretty red letters they can tell you more about the problem...

also how to convert:

then go to file->save

use those to mark the beginning and the end of the "clips" you want so you can save room

both lagarith and huffyuv both make files that will take up a lot of file space, to save file space:
1. plan your video out more and take only the clips you need...
2. disable the audio by going to streams -> stream list-> disable stream

also I'd make "test clips" to see which is going to work better in your program...

this is a very common problem :3

Is there any way to save files from Virtualdub where they don't take up 1 GB? Even when I take out clips, VB uses at least a gig. And I've had this problem before, so I don't think there is anything wrong with the files I'm using. There must be something wrong with Editstudio. I did uninstall and reinstall it a few weeks ago...

lossless files (although large in filesize) will usually work better in editing programs than lossy ones... you can try different compressions to see which one will work, but i doubt that many of them will work as well as a lossless codec
