No need to convert, you just need a player who can handle the .avi. Try VLC http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html

    Used to be a user of vixy, but they seem to have died on the vine.  Any other ideas where you have the YouTube header and get an output of convert avi?

    A step, baby, use DVD video Soft.  It's been recently updated, and the name of the YouTube video is automatically deployed for you (you can change it for the reader if you wish).

    Whenever I find something absurdly funny on YouTube, it's only a few clicks away.  The output file is converted to AVI the Sansa is quite satisfied.  I run the output through the SMC on to the Sansa.

  • Converting .rec .mpeg or .avi files

    I downloaded video files from a Topfield TF5000PVRt to my pc. They came with an extension ".rec. I can successfully convert them into a format appropriate so that they can be read by Windows Media Player? I hope to be able to create versions of DVD as well. Is this feasible?

    Hi amberdog, there is not a lot of free converters out there but MPEG Streamclip video converter, http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-win.html is supposed to be the best for both your specifications, in addition to this, it takes support the 28 other formats and can edit videos as well. I hope this helps.

    I did an a PPT file with music and I would like to convert it to an AVI file or, better, an MPEG file.

    There are many, many programs available on the Internet that will record everything that is playing through your sound card.  Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) should be able to do.  You don't the PPT file convert an audio file, you save what he plays and save it as an audio file.  It won't take days.

    Use a file dialog prompt that you can only create new files.

    Use a code that detects if the file name already exists and loop it back to allow the user to select a new file name.

    How to open or convert the .avi file on the old mac running OS.10.6.8.  We tried downloading several conversion programs as well as programs that run .avi, but everyone's message could not be opened on the mac or require a fee.  Anyone able to fix it.  We have great audio video file we need to convert.

    Try to use MPEG Streamclip; You can be told to install Perian or another component, or who does not open the AVI file. AVI is a container, not a format; no single component or codec will open all reviews, and some cannot be played or converted in Mac OS X.

    Sorry, but I'm new and a little confused with some installation options.

    I bought the first Elements 7 of Steve book and read it (it's the great BTW) but have a few questions to start my project.

    Book of Steve, I understand that I am better to convert my Panasonic. MTS files to AVI (in fact, I am converting all my sources to. AVI).  So my questions are:

    (1) I use AVS video Converter 7.0 to convert all my AVI sources.  AVS offers several AVI profile. It is important that the one that I use?  I want to use the AVI profile called

    HD 1080 p video: h.264/AVC, 4200 Kbps; Audio: MP3, 256 Kbps that guard the 1080 and the big screen...

    then use the same profile for non wide screen (except use the options of the advance of the to have capture 720 x 540 instead of 1920 x 1080)


    The other AVS profiles for. AVI are: (of course, I'm confused why we MPEG-4 in an AVI file, but they all register under.) (AVI)

    (2) then, then what preset uses?  Since these are all. AVI on my hard drive, I am confused with all the choices.

    I am considering NTSC-HDV-HDV 1080i 30, but AVCHD, DV, HDV, and HARD DISK offer all the options that seem to work.

    I would recommend capturing your VHS, DVD and video with the ADS Pyro 8mm and I would recommend it download files AVCHD with Premiere Elements and display an AVI from there so that you can combine all projects. (Make sure the parameters of project selected for AVCHD precisely corresponding to your camcorder - and give the file a few minutes to comply before trying to modify.)

  • How to convert video files in avi files 3pg need a kind of codecs etc.

    I am trying to transfer my video files 3pg by converting avi files to copy on this new player mp3; in the instruction book, which says that if there is no problem converting them, iwould need to download additional codecs to take in charge all the multimedia files. How do you do that?

    Hello

    What operating system is installed on the computer?

    You don't need codecs for the avi files to convert to be played on the player, if you need to read the files on the computer, then you may need to download codecs from the internet.

    You can use your favorite search engine to download codecs and use.

    The audio or video file can be converted to a file type that your device can play and then copied to your device. If it cannot be converted (or you don't want it to be converted), you can always choose to copy the file on the device, but you will not be able to play.

  • Power supply error after converting old .vmx file

    To start, that's what I'm working with:

    VMWare ESXi 4.1.0 (and vSphere client)

    VMWare vCenter Converter Stand alone

    What I'm trying to accomplish is to take an older VMWare machine, convert it, and then add it in the new client. Problem is after I convert the old file, transfer it to the data store, then add the inventory on what it will not feed machine and I get the following error message:

    Could not open scsi0:0 disc: disc not supported or not valid type 7. Make sure that the disk has been imported.

    I was looking through some threads here on this forum (based on the SCSI error) and none of the fixes worked for me, because the changes were not necessary in my new .vmx file.

    Welcome to the community,

    Problem is once I have converted the old file, download on the data store, and then add the machine to the inventory...

    Could you explain what exactly you were doing.

    • What is product VMware has been the virtual machine running before you converted?
    • How do you have it convert?
    • Why don't you use the converter to convert the virtual machine directly to ESXi, instead of convert and download?

  • After you import the avi file to new laptop, reading looks like he will ignore the frameworks

    I created successfully a project of first Pro CS5 using my desktop computer computer (i7 with dedicated NVIDIA graphics card) without any problem. I then imported the video file avi created on my desktop to my old laptop (intermediate level) with the same edition of Premiere Pro is installed and enabled in Premiere Pro create a new project it without any problem reading. After moving first Pro CS5 to my new laptop higher end, I imported the avi file of the desktop to create a new project on the new laptop, but when I went to play the video in Premiere Pro on the new laptop, the picture is shaking during playback as executives are to be ignored. The new laptop is far superior to my old, so I don't know what is the issue. The new laptop is an i7, 64-bit, 8 Gig RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 650 M graphics card.

    Is there a different setting that I needed in Premiere Pro on the new laptop computer?

    Here are the details of video file:

    Frame rate: 29.97

    There are 74673 keyframes.

    The depth is 24 bits.

    Audio track 1:

    Rate is 48000 samples/s

    The sample size is 16-bit

    Taking your advice, I discovered an error of 'beginner '. When I imported the AVI from my office, I was a hypothesis that it was copied to the disk on my new laptop... Oops! The glitter is attributable to the project on the laptop trying to access the file through the network traffic. When I copied the avi file on my laptop, then created a new project in the key of my laptop - problem solved. Thank you, Jim, the suggestion on several disks. I'm immediately incorporate.

  • How to convert AVI files for first CS4 (Mac) with VLC - Please Help!

    Hi thanks for the reading-post it here for the first time.

    I'm another grass sorry, trying to convert AVI files, so I can import them into first CS4 on a Macbook Pro laptop. I am using VLC on the macbook to perform the conversion. I don't want to use free converters such as iSquint (tried and many others) b/c they cause a significant loss of video quality. But I'm trying to do it for free! (I'm broke).

    Been read tons here and on other forums to get advice first, but in my view, none is really specific to my situation.

    I'm fine (slight quality loss) video but NO Audio. I want the audio too!

    AVI files seized on an old NV3 camera SD card.

    VLC said the Codecs for these files I got off the SD card are as follows:
    0 workflow:
    Type - video
    Codec - MPEG - 4 (XVID) video
    Resolution - 640 x 480
    Rate - 30

    Stream 1:
    Type - Audio
    Codec-MS ADPCM (audio ms)
    Channels: Mono
    Sampling frequency - 22050 Hz
    Bits per sample - 16

    I tried several different configurations with VLC conversion according to the documentation of "Supported file Formats for import in first CS4": http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/4.0/WSf52ca809ac8f6c7135876f961243120b72d-8000.htm l

    For example I tried to convert the same file as follows:

    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/Audio MP3 192-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/Audio MP3 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/MPEG Audio 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-2 VID 1024 bits/Audio MP3 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG - 1 1024 bits/MPEG Audio 16 bit VID
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG - 1 1024 bits/MP3 Audio 16 bit VID

    When converting to MP4 (MPEG-4) I get a general error while importing first so no dice on that, and I tried a lot of other configurations/combinations, but not all. 

    I check each result with VLC before import into the Prime Minister and they play both audio & video fine with VLC.

    My question is the following: what settings can I select in VLC for audio first? Or if there is a specific codec I need to download and install a download link... would be much appreciated.

    Alternative solution?...

    If I put these files on the SD card in my camera and click on and drag them on the macbook pro laptop as AVI files (instead of dragging to a PC first, as was the case)... don't you think it would make a diff?  Also, I tried sucking to the top of the camera first, but that didn't work... the camera turns on when connected to the computer... so that you can not navigate to a file on the camera and then use the GUI first to suck.

    I have a laptop. These original files play well with Windows Movie Maker because I downloaded the appropriate codec. Hi and low tried a mac version of this codec without result. CS4 my install discs do not work on Windows/PC. Trust me I wish they did! Even the configuration required on the package is in the absence of any mention of Windows. Windows Movie Maker convert .mov... that was my first game b4 plan, I realized that VLC was quite robust and user-friendly in its Export Wizard codec functionality.

    Any help would be much appreciated! I swear! I'm banging my head against the wall and I want to just change already!

    Thank you!

    Do not use the flow function; This isn't what you are doing.  (Although technically, I don't think it matters)

    Use the convert/save option.  The first screening, video - H.264 + AAC (MP4), should work great.  Don't change anything.  Save the file with a MOV or MP4 extension.

    If you get audio weird sounding, then create your own preset that matches the Video - H.264 + AAC (MP4) preset, uncheck only Audio the Audio tab and convert to video.  Then run convert/Save using the Audio - CD preset.  Save the file as a WAV (or an AAC?).

    Import the 2 files into PR.  You shouldn't have synchronization problems if the points are aligned in when you add them to the sequence.
