Re: LMLM4 Stream Format not found

OK, thanks that now works, now I have one usingWindows Media -- after
I sorted through the -playlist option when it tried to play the file,
it got the following (and the other os does play this file):

Connecting to server www.ljcentral.net[209.249.226.11]:80 ...
size_confirm mismatch!: 30130 43520
Error while parsing chunk header
Unknown protocol: http
asf_streaming_start failed

Any assistance would be appreciated.

mencoder "-of mpeg" switch results in no audio(0.92-3.2)

Hi,

I am trying to convert some 320x240 mpegs I have into VCD format, so I 
can put some home movies onto CDs.  I can use the following script, and 
it works just fine:

mencoder -vop scale=352:240 -o output.mpg -oac mp3lame -lameopts 
cbr:preset=224 -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=mpeg1video:vbitrate=1150:aspect=1.3333 input.mpg

However, it results in an AVI, which is not compatible with vcdimager. 
 If I add the "-of mpeg" switch, it produces an mpeg file, but the sound 
track just has a pop at the beginning, then dead air.  If I used "-oac 
copy", no sound channel is even detected/created in the mpeg file.

If I do not use the "-of" switch, either "-oac" switch tested above 
works just fine (but I get an AVI file).  Am I doing something wrong? 
 Is this something known about, that is fixed in the 1.0pre series (I 
see this "-of" switch is BETA for this version)?

Thx!

if you want to create a vcd you have to convert your audio track to mp2:

  mencoder -vf scale=352:240 -of mpeg -o output.mpg -oac lavc -ovc lavc 
-lavcopts
  vcodec=mpeg1video:vbitrate=1150:aspect=4/3:acodec=mp2:abitrate=224 
input.mpg

and be sure you are using mencoder 1.0pre or mencoder-cvs

mencoder frame-based selection on MPEG2 files

Hello,

I'm trying to convert an MPEG2 file (recorded from
DVB) using mencoder. I've been looking for an option
similar to transcode's "-c" (at least with start and
end). So far, "-ss" doesn't set the position anywhere
near where it should be. For example, "-ss 10:00"
makes it start a bit after 13 minutes, both in
mencoder and mplayer.
Is there any way to select only part of a video based
on time or preferably frame position ?

Thanks,

Bruno.

Hi,

When I try to play this kind of files, I got the warning below:

[mkv] Track ID 1: audio (A_MS/ACM), -aid 0, -alang eng
[mkv] Unknown/unsupported audio codec ID 'A_MS/ACM' for track 1 or 
missing/faulty private codec data.

I remember one of these files plays ok with the old external mkv 
support(demux_mkv.cpp). So I think there is something missing when we move 
the the internal support.

BTW, If you need some sample I can upload some tomorrow.

not from frame, but you approximate the start point using -sb 
<BYTE_POSITION>
