I want to convert a avi file to a mpeg file using TMPGENC. Before I hit start I want to do a file preview to view the video first to see what it looks like. I get a blank screen. What am doing wrong.

Thanks,
Alize

The avi file is a movie I downloaded with an .avi extension. How do I tell what kind of avi is it? or is it necessary to know that type of avi? New at this so please help.

Yes, you need to know what type it is, because AVI itself doesn't tell anything -- see AVI from here:

http://www.afterdawn.com/glossary/

Right-click on the file and select Summary tab and you should be able to see the information related to the file (works at least under 2k).

One thing that has happened to me and others is that you've downloaded DivX ;-) 3.11 encoded file with SBC encoding and now you have DivX4 codec on your machine trying to play these files and therefor you don't get video output. If this is the case (and even if it's not, this is recommended anyway), do this:

-uninstall DivX4 codec
-install DivX 3.11 alpha codec
-install DivX4.11 codec and when the DivX4 installation asks you "do you want divx4 to play divx3 movies" answer "no"

..try if TMPGEnc can read the video now.

Hi been gone for awhile but I'm back. This is the details of the .avi file that I have

352 x 288, 24 Bits, 44589 Frames, 12.500 Frames/Sec, 44 KB/Sec, MS-MPEG4 V3

I've tried installing 4.11 codec and still no luck with the video. All I can hear is the video. I am able to see the .avi file with my window media player but when I try to preview the file with TMPGENC before encoding no video. Is there a setting I am missing? Am I selecting the wrong setting so that is why I can not see the preview? This will be my first VCD and I'm really anxious. Your help is greatly appreciated. What am I doing wrong?
